Active Track and disappointing speed

[Nigpd]

I upgraded to .900 to take advantage of the ability to set the Active Track speed using the slider in the app.

I tried it for the first time this evening on a rowing boat. Drew the box round the subject, put the slider on max to 15 m/sec., pressed trace and hit go on the green box. Subject moved off not going any real speed, but Mavic lagged behind badly. Wouldn't hit anywhere near 15m/sec, more like 1-2m/sec.

Resulted in the boat moving away and the Mavic not keeping up.

Am I doing anything wrong or have I missed something here?

Are you saying it would not keep up with a row boat?

15 meters a second is booking it!

After drawing the box, did you get a green GO button that you pressed? Otherwise the target is not locked

15m/sec is 30 knots. That aint a row boat

Yes, but the row boats had a crew of 4 and a crew of 8, but they weren't going at anywhere near full tilt

I set the slider to the top to make sure the Mavic would keep up when the crew of 8 started to hammer it

It's a row boat with a crew of 8

Yes, hit the green go button and saw the small green circle lock on and stay with the boat for a couple of seconds, but the Mavic just would not keep up

I was too, but as I said in my opening post, I wanted to take advantage of the new ability to set active track speed on the slider. That isn't possible with .400

DIdn't you see (and click) a "OK" box near the green targeting box? One has to click that OK for Active Track to kick in

got there before me

How fast can they go? My Mavic will travel at least 25 mph in Active Track.

I read it all, just as I quoted it, but my mind skipped that "hit" parte because it made no sense at all: first he talks about the "go" button and only after that he sais he "saw the green circle lock on" while the sequence is the exact opposite: first you draw the green circle, which locks on the target, and only after that you get the GO box to hit

Obviously you didn't noptice that post # 9 was fully quoted in my reply. "One has to read at least the full post before posting" [semi quote]
