Can someone please post a video or explain better the camera modes? FPV mode I get, but what's the difference between FOLLOW and FREE modes for single operator? Thank you!

Follow mode , keeps the camera at or near straight to the frame. If you turn the camera it will lag a bit for smoothness but will stay ruffly straight. In free mode the camera is unlocked from the frame. You can turn the frame but the camera will continue to point the same direction as long as you don't turn past its pan limit (I think that is 320 degrees each way).

If you're an experienced videographer, it would make sense as it opens up opportunities for approach/departure angles without having to worry about making sure the camera is still facing the right way.

The free mode is best for two person operation. One person flies the aircraft and the second person runs the camera.
