If trying it on public roads then there is a lot that can go wrong, including loosing sight of the aircraft and hitting unexpected trees or power lines if it overshoots on corners. If using Active Track it wont do 30mph and you should expect it to loose lock on your car occasionally, will make it very difficult if there is other traffic on the road. Much better on a private road or beach.
Try doing it from the roadside first, pick up the car or lock onto it as it approaches and follow it as it passes, then after a few 100m call the aircraft back. That will be much safer and after doing it a few times you will understand the problems and probably have better video than if you had done it from in the car.
Probably the best video would be from using Course Lock mode since then you can manually keep the camera on the car, rotating the camera as the car passes and simultaneously flying a straight path alongside the road, adjusting height as desired. |
