Documentation from DJI has always been lacking. This time, it's entirely frustrating.
The manual states under Course Lock (pg 24), after setting interval, duration, and course (direction): "Select a subject (if applicable)"
HOW? I tried tapping the screen, but saw no indications. Do I just point the aircraft at the subject before hitting GO?
The paragraph above those steps (in the manual) suggests there are two Course Locks, one where "a subject cannot be selected" and one where "the aircraft flies around a selected object".
"Around a selected object"? Course lock is supposed to go in a straight line and this is not Circle, so perhaps "Around" is a poor choice of words?
Also, if there is a method where "a subject cannot be selected", how does one toggle between the two kinds? Because I seem to be stuck on the kind with selecting a subject to "follow" is forbidden.
Just to be clear: my expectation for a "selecting a target" type of Course Lock is that the aircraft would travel in a straight line as initially selected, but the aircraft orientation would remain pointed at the selected subject.
Thanks, Chris
