Flying in Sport Mode?

[Proffy]

I wanna try out a sport mode. Should I know some tips and tricks before doing this? Thanks in advance!

Collision avoidance is disabled and stopping distances are longer. Plan accordingly!

Open space, above tree line or structures, well away from anyone, including yourself.

Just ease into it, you don't have to go full throttle straight away.

Is there a possibility to flip the drone in sport mode?

Sport mode certainly has its place in the drone world - I only use it if I am fighting the wind and need to get back home but I have used it to film motocross races - works very affectively - never did I worry whether it would flip over and trust me I was pushing the drone - it was pitching left, right, forward and backward and yet the video is pretty good and steady - I always get above the trees and rarely touch the height - I get to a comfortable height above the trees and my left thumb is just used to rotate the drone and index finger on gimbal tilt. Once u get used to it, it's like a video game - see for yourself.

You’ve done a great job at keeping them in frame there!

Only if you clip a tree top.

Go easy when turning right or left. A little stick movement goes a long way. After a minute or two, sport mode is easy. Depletes battery faster too.

Test it out in a wide open area that's free of all obstacles. It won't take you long to figure out how it works.
