Hello Everyone. I am a newbie of 2 weeks and have been learning by taking it slowly and in small steps. I finally reached the stage where I wanted to try and get smooth panning with my Mini 2 video and was thrilled to learn I could adjust all the control parameters to achieve this. Sadly many adjustments can not be made until the drone is flying, so in my back garden I launched it to a height of around 2 metres and tried to make adjustments.
So what went wrong here:
In Cini mode I adjusted the Yaw, Pitch, start and stop speed, and everything else, etc. But on testing nothing changed!
To ensure I was in the right modes I also changed settings in Standard and Sport mode. Disappointingly no behaviour was affected.
I then rebooted the controller, drone and phone, and still no changes were detected.
Before packing up I then flew the drone up to about 30 metres and about 20 metres away, it behaved exactly as it always had.
Then very strangely as I brought it back to me it started to react very slowly, the panning was smooth and I had a little overshoot, which was exactly as I had hoped it would do when I earlier made the adjustments, but no changes happened until I had taken it for this little flight.
Afterwards I was able to make proper control adjustments and each time I did it behaved correspondingly - which is great, but now of course I don't trust it!
So my questions are:
1) Why would adjusting the control settings earlier when it was hovering at 2 metres have no affect at all?
2) Why should it suddenly be okay now after a very short flight away?
3) Dare I trust it to fly in a tight environment?
All advice very much appreciated.
