    How to fly a drone front of a forward moving car?

    I've always done it with a secondary driver, and manual control.

    Mavic 3 coordinated turns (fixed wing mode)

    Especially when there is no reason for it. Entirely a software issue that could be corrected in a day.

    Also Aunty Sandy's Banana Bread. Definitely second what was said above regarding the backroad. Half of it is the most picturesque, car commercial road through rolling hills, paved with a paintbrush... but the other half is like something out of the Top Gear Bolivia special so inclement...

    Rules for Hawaii

    I agree there a so much to see on the road to Hana and the more time the better, but we were able to make it completely around the main and back road within a day with lots of stops for pictures and exploring. Make sure you drive the entire coastline of Maui, a great drive, lots to see, and...

    Rules for Hawaii

    On Maui the backroad to Hana has many amazing flight locations, and the whole coastline is worth the drive. Not as many restricted areas as O'ahu

    Rules for Hawaii

    No issues with wind, I even flew all the way out and around Chinaman's Hat without issue. I also had a mini 1 with me which had occasional trouble with signal, but the 2 was fine everywhere.

    Rules for Hawaii

    Aslo just came back from Hawaii, and there are many amazing places to fly. Biggest things to remember is there are quite a few military bases on the island, so don't fly within their airspace. Use the B4UFLY app to check the area. As others have stated, no takeoff or landing in state parks, but...

    Mavic 3 coordinated turns (fixed wing mode)

    Has anyone noticed if this issue has been corrected with the recent firmware update?

    Mavic 3 coordinated turns (fixed wing mode)

    I did notice that braking too. But I'm use to the FPV drone that brakes incredibly fast. Again, would be nice if adjustable. One thing I really loved about the Anafi was how customizable everything was. If DJI could make the M3 have coordinated turns optional, and make the fpv mode actually...

    Mavic 3 coordinated turns (fixed wing mode)

    It is an issue, because it limits the potential for more complex movement. I'm not saying to take it away from those who use it, just to set an on/off toggle for those don't.

    Mavic 3 coordinated turns (fixed wing mode)

    No big deal unless you already know how to do a turn like that yourself, and the automatic system is making it behave strangely. Good to know it is a known issue, certainly hope it gets resolved soon.

    Mavic 3 coordinated turns (fixed wing mode)

    Not exactly, I want the drone to not automatically roll when I yaw - I'll do that myself as required. No other drone has this flight behavior as a fixed thing.

    Mavic 3 coordinated turns (fixed wing mode)

    Yes, that is exactly what I'm seeing. Now how can we disable that? On the FPV drone, there is a setting for automatic coordinated turns which can be changed from strong, slight, and off. And I believe there was for one of the Air2 models as well. You may also notice during this automated turn...

    Mavic 3 coordinated turns (fixed wing mode)

    Unfortunately no, it does this in either FPV or follow mode, it is just easier to notice in FPV. Try watching yours by line of sight while moving forward and turning. The way it yaws then suddenly dips sideways looks very strange.

    Mavic 3 coordinated turns (fixed wing mode)

    Hello all, just picked up a Mavic 3 to join my DJI FPV, Mini 2, and Anafi. Everything else has been great with it, but I am extremely annoyed with the automatic coordinated turns - automatically added roll when yawing during forward motion. It makes it handle very poorly, and limits the...
