Here you can see my first tries of tracking a motorcycle manually with my Mavic 2 Pro.
I used D-Log-M for this video.

I think around 40 - 60 km/h.

Thanks, was just wondering. I shoot water-skiing videos with a Mavic Pro (still don't have a Mavic 2 Pro). Anyway at about 0:45 in your video, it appears that your M2P didn't have the jam to keep up with the bike while flying backwards. Do you recall if that was actually the case? I have a ton of water-skiing footage that looks just like your video at 0:45, and it's because my M1P seems to struggle with high speed while flying backwards. My plans were to upgrade to an M2P, but depending on your answer, I may consider a new phantom instead.

I think the drone can keep up while flying backwards. I wanted the shot to look like this at 0:45. Also this video was not filmed in sport mode so you can still go faster than in this video.

Thank you so much for the info. With my M1P, I was always looking for another 2 miles per hour. The M2P is supposed to have an extra 5 miles per hour so just want to make sure I'm not disappointed after I buy it.
