While processing power on the device is important it cannot make up for the fact there is no GPS positioning feedback from the subject.
Skydio R1 does a fantastic job at optical tracking, well ahead of dji but still not perfect.
Sorry, but that video was pretty funny... no, it was hilarious! I can’t believe how many or those people were distracted while flying, and some deserved the resulting nose dives into the ground for putting their kids at risk like that. Definitely a good video showing how NOT to fly!Guys please share this video, let's keep our hobby safe.
^c'mon mann, these people are flying for fun, it's a hobby and they are flying recreationally. you're not helping the cause by claiming the users are the part of the problem with their "risky" behavior when we all know where the problem really belongs; nobody deserves this. all you are doing is encouraging the 1,000 foot rule to go into effect.
always keep your finger on or near the pause button, i'm assuming that would work to defeat the defect until we get some sort of definitive resolution.
Litchi Follow Me is a disaster and AT not far behind. Litchi did offer dynamic altitude with the original GO app which was nice; actually the P3 with GO is a step up in Follow from GO4 and Active Track.

Paul, we bit harsh arnt we....calling people idiots is plain right out wrong, but educating them would make you sound more professional. Your call.These intelligent flight mode are great, active track as well the other mode .like any man made things it can go wrong, What happen to keeping eye on your drone and pause button, try to be always prepared. Seen so many idiots Do stupid things,
The aircraft doesn't care if you're flying recreationally or not, you have to know and understand how it works and be prepared for malfunctions the exact same way as for commercial operations.c'mon mann, these people are flying for fun, it's a hobby and they are flying recreationally
How do you want to educate people you can't contact? Most you can do is remind at large that people need to educate themselves. They should, but usually they don't because it's too much effort, and that's what turns them into idiots.calling people idiots is plain right out wrong, but educating them would make you sound more professional.
Good point,, I guess it was just name calling sometimes bother me. I guess they are idiots that need reminding they are idiots...right?The aircraft doesn't care if you're flying recreationally or not, you have to know and understand how it works and be prepared for malfunctions the exact same way as for commercial operations.
Some people do bite more than they can chew on, or just disregard it as a toy which it is not.

Well, according to the Dunning-Kruger effect, yesI guess they are idiots that need reminding they are idiots...right?
Great, point proven...now listen up fliers. I know some here, well a lot of fliers here are not considered idiots and I realized there are some here that are. SO, if you dont want to join the idiotisy club, READ THE MANUAL OR MANUALS. DONT TAKE UNNECESSARY RISKS AND CHANCES. THINK BEFORE PROCEEDING. KNOW YOUR PLAN OF ATTACK. MAKE A THOROUGH LOOK AROUND BEFORE FLIGHT. THIS IS NOT A TOY AS MENTIONED IN A POST #16....... And if you make it a point that you can avoid being a member of the idiotisy club do it. I paid my dues of being an idiot but I practiced and still practicing what I preach (my personal idiotisy level 2)I have to say its 2 because I sometime do things that considers me an idiot (but never against life and limb) when I first started flying it was 7 maybe 8 but I got serious fast, ...Professionalism is a goal for business and fun....Preacher: over and out..Well, according to the Dunning-Kruger effect, yes
I could point out where everything DJI says about the mode and the very mode itself is all about following an object while it is engaged in an activity other than flying the drone but instead I'll mention that what is being discussed is a flaw in the flight programming itself. This thread is about raising awareness of that. You'd think a consumer should be allowed to use the drone as it was intended and not need to expect that one of it's modes does not work correctly so as it is prone to randomly fly at the subject it is tracking. A good example is the iphondo video where he is riding a motorcycle of some type and the P4 just keeps randomly flying all over the place. _Clearly_ the drone is not working as it should. I'd not call that "great".These intelligent flight mode are great, active track as well the other mode .like any man made things it can go wrong, What happen to keeping eye on your drone and pause button, try to be always prepared.
