i thought the idea was to always have the "+" signs on the screen, like you do when in quickshot mode. Is this not it? I can't test it myself since (for some weird reason) DJI has only added this to Android, but not iOS. As of this moment, the iOS app is 2 versions behind Android.......

Just did a test with this Target Scanning option.

When enabled it will draw 1 or more "X" on the screen automatically, i enabled this while video recording, move the cam from the sky to the ground and i was X-ed on the screen.

Raise your arm and wave at the camera and it will initiate the active tracking or QuickShot. Handy if you have multiple people in the frame and want one person to be central to the shoot.

Cool! I took 4 fully charged batteries out yesterday - 1.7 hours flight time and I wish I had a 5th - great drone to fly in the sun and to get away from all that is going on in the world right now. If you fly the MA2 in light winds with non aggressive controls and keep out of sport mode you can get a solid half an hour on one battery.

Probably - Billy Kyle got 15 minutes on his first flight with the MA2 - flying around in Sport mode permanently in full pitch at higher attitude in a fresh breeze. Thats the minimum to expect. Under more normal conditions you'll get around 25 minutes but flown gently and taking the battery below a critical warning in near windless conditions you can exceed 30 minutes. Massive variance.

I don't have a Youtube channel and even if I did I would never post a video as I prefer stills. If you are keen to see wave gesture activation then check out Flytpath on there.

When enabled the MA2 scans the scene and automatically recognises people and objects and places and icon next to them.  Click on the + icin and it setsup poi spotlight etc without you needing to draw the box.  Only on Andriod using 1.1.5 and 0250 firmware.

The Xs are objects the app identifies (probably with good contrast) that it thinks you might want to use as a subject.  You tap on the X and a green box highlights the subject and then you can fly an Active Track, Spotlight or POI targeting the subject.  If you don't want an X as a subject just tap on or drag a box over the subject you do want.  If the conditions are right and you or another is the subject, you/they can wave with elbow extended above the shoulder and a green box will appear.  I haven't had great luck with the wave technique.

I don't know about that...in FocusTrack I think you are still in a Follow mode.  I've never tried it when in FPV.

Hi. Thank you for reaching out to DJI Forum. With regards to this inquiry, once the Target Scanning has been enabled the camera will automatically recognize possible target and a circle icon will be on the subject. Where the user can tap the circle or drag a box around the subject. If you have further inquiry or concern, please feel free to post it here at DJI Forum. We are here to help. Thank you.

They show up when you turn active track on with the M2.  With Subject Scanning with the Fly App, they are always on like how Skydio 2 is.  I'm just worried it might track someone else and follow it sideways without side sensors.

Will the Mavic Air 2/Air 2S recognize a train as a subject? On which distance to the object, this function will work?

As animals are not recognized and a train is a vehicle like a car or truck, but not listed, it might be worth to give it a try.
