How to take a tracking shot?

[ronk]

Has anyone taken a shot like the one below? Looks almost like a reverse spiral.
What technique did you use for it? Stick control? Automation using Litchi?

This one is very similar, done with Litchi.

Lichti could do that with ease. Plus you could use a new tool that allows one to prefly the Lichti Mission by exporting the mission as a .kml file that is then passed to Google Earth. It allows one to fine tune the tracking shots and path of the drone.
