I'll try to make this brief.
As you may all know, the Mavic 2 has its side sensors disabled in all modes except active track and tripod mode... I have not found any clear explanation from DJI about this, it appears everyone has just forgot about it. I understand it has been clear to be this case since launch but I am still dissappointed and without answer.
You see, if I tap on active track and before I select a subject and begin tracking, you can still fly the Mavic 2 like in P mode, only all 6 sides have sensor active. I tested this, flying faster than tripod mode it was able to detect me and trees in daylight (and stop). Therefore, I see it is physically capable of doing this. I am fine with proposing a speed limit like in APAS mode or P mode, just turn them on. DJI released this product unfinsihed (it's great don't get me wrong) but we are getting features later on that should have been in release. I am mostly fine with this, but the side sensors should be added along with all the others.
BTW, I will point out as I understand the side sensors are arguably the most inferior of all sides. They are single optical sensors, so they are unable to detect depth like the front and back as well as be able to detect at less distance than the others which is the only real reason I can imagine this being off in P mode. However, like I said in the example, it is physically capable as the Mavic 2 is programmed to do so in activetrack.
Thanks for reading and responding!
