Nifty F10 fixed-wing drone can be launched straight from the bed of a modified Tesla Cybertruck.
Drones + robots + cars! 🤯
At @SkydioHQ Ascend 2025, the company introduced three new drones.
The R10 is built for indoor and tight-space missions, while the X10 is aimed at enterprise work, able to fly in total darkness and land on its own in rough weather.
The vehicle, upgraded by Unplugged Performance, doubles as a mobile base station with all the equipment needed for field missions.
The demo showed how drones and vehicles could work together as a single system, letting responders, inspectors, or defense teams deploy long-range autonomous flights directly from the field.
Denis Villeneuve's Blade Runner 2049 opening sequence that shows that your (flying) car can have an obedient drone that can lift off from the roof.
