Can Helix be recorded in reverse?

A VO is an outstanding suggestion. Then you can safely and comfortably focus exclusively on the shot, and keeping appropriate distance from the subject. You're VO can worry about the larger airspace environment around you.
 
Can the quick shot “Helix” move be conducted in reverse? In other words I would like to use that quick shot and have the drone get in closer to the subject rather than going further away as it flys and conducts it programmed moves.

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks
I was able to make the video play in reverse using Movavi Video Editor, click on "reverse" the video
 
Even with prop guards that can happen. I've got prop guards for my Phantom, and there's still plenty of exposed prop to slice flesh.

'Been 2 years, but rereading this thread I need to add that by "guards" I was referring to what is probably more correctly called "cages".

Today we have some good options with the Mini 4P, for example, which have full prop cages available. The new Mini 5P with its 1" sensor will have such options too, if not available yet.

Best of all, if the video quality of a Neo is sufficient, it's among the best options for this w.r.t. safety, at only 135g with fully protected props... Hard to have much injury, if at all, getting hit by that little drone, especially at low speeds and oblique angles.

A Phantom? Good lord...
