About the features:

Stop at Structure
Perform finer, more controlled inspections with Stop at Structure. When your drone is within 13 ft (4 m) of an obstacle, it will not deviate from its course. Instead, it will reduce speed and maintain position, allowing for more precise maneuvering in the immediate vicinity of the structure.

AutoCrop
When creating a clip in the Skydio app, you now have three options for cropping your video: Original (16x9), vertical (9x16), square (1x1)

Scout - Find Subject
Skydio Scout settings has a new toggle that allows you to display or hide the subject Find button on the Fly screen. Selecting the Find button will yaw the vehicle to face the direction of the tracked GPS subject.

GPS Weak Altitude Limit
A safety measure that prevents flight above 33 ft (10 m) outdoors and 66 feet (20 m) indoors when GPS is weak that replaces the Indoor Height Ceiling toggle in the Flight Limits menu.

Subject Tracking Improvements
We've introduced a number of updates to Skydio autonomy that improve overall quality and reduce latency while tracking a subject. Introducing Shuffle, a new setting for the Motion Track Flight Skill. When selected, your drone will autonomously pick a new position and orientation from which to follow the tracked subject.

Smooth Mode
By default, your drone will capture footage with smoother camera movements when tracking a subject, even if the subject is changing direction quickly and frequently (such as when skiing or biking).

Improved Visual Framing
To avoid suboptimal shots, such as top-down views with the ground prominently in frame, Skydio will now ensure the horizon is kept in the top third of the frame while flying.

Increased Descent Speed
Through speed improvements, we have further amplified your ability to capture dynamic and impressive shots. Skydio will fly faster when descending at an angle during Fixed Track, Motion Track, or KeyFrame flights. Oblique descent speed: 35 mph (16 m/s). Vertical descent speed: 9 mph (4 m/s).

Obstacle Avoidance Enhancements
To improve the overall flying experience, we have updated Obstacle Avoidance margins and behaviors during flight. Margins in all modes have been adjusted to allow for more flexibility and safety while flying. Skydio will now use visual navigation and AI to dynamically and temporarily reduce obstacle avoidance margins when moving through narrow spaces. Skydio will also dynamically expand margins if the drone detects environmental dangers, such as wind.

Superzoom Toggle
A new toggle allows you to enable or disable Superzoom. Enabled by default and persists across flights and power cycles. Located in the Drone menu tab under Device settings.
