Some recent DJI Mavic Air video of kayaking in the Scottish loch complete with island castle. I had a problem with the active track when I tried to follow the kayaker for this video as the drone became very unstable and was darting about up and down and back and forth over the water. I had full gps but put it down to the sun reflecting off the loch's choppy surface and needless to say I took if off active track and flew manually to get this video! Anyone else experienced this when try to use active track over sunlit choppy water?


Cheers Ron

I would stay away from Active Track with the MA, somes users experienced a dive bombing of the drone almost hitting subject and even diving into water. Very erratic at this time, wait and see if DJI corrects it in the next FW update.

I used active track on my MA yesterday and didn't experience any issues in both trace and spotlight. Very strange.

No, land. Try calibrating the VPS/OA using Assistant 2.
