The lightest drone in the catalog with built-in 5G is the Skydio X10, at 2110 g.
Among the complete drones (Drones group) with 5G cellular connectivity, here is how they compare by weight:
| Product | Manufacturer | Weight | Key specs |
|---|---|---|---|
| Skydio X10 | Skydio | 2110 g | 40 min flight time, 20 m/s, 12 km range, Jetson Orin SoC, IP55 |
| InDro R&D Drone Platform | InDro Robotics | 2500 g | ROS 2 research quadcopter, Jetson Orin NX, PX4 flight controller |
| Draganfly Apex Ultra | Draganfly | 5000 g | 45 min flight time, 16 km range, 3000 g max payload, Jetson Orin |
| Skydio F10 Lightrunner | Skydio | 7000 g | 120 min flight time, 44 m/s, fixed-wing-class, Jetson Orin SoC, IP55 |
The Skydio X10 is a compact autonomous drone for inspection, public safety, and security, with modular visual/thermal sensor packages, WiFi/Bluetooth and GNSS on board alongside its 5G connectivity, and an operating range of −20 °C to 45 °C. If your priority is weight with 5G onboard, it is the clear choice; the InDro R&D platform is the next lightest if you need a Jetson Orin NX-based ROS 2 research quadcopter instead.
One note: this covers drones with 5G as a built-in feature; there are also standalone 5G-enabled onboard computers in the catalog (e.g., drone mission computers) that could add cellular connectivity to other drones — let me know if you'd like to explore that route instead.
