I spotted it on several occasions now especially when the deviation is minor You cant see it on screen and correct it - I never had this with M2P?

Yes, you are right, compaired to when you have done the circle and then come back again to the arch, then it is sharper. Almost like the auto focus has corrected itself. That should not happen. Unfortunately I have no idea what to do about that and hope that soemone else can assist you with this proble.

Did you have the OA turned off when going thru there? Would be nice if we had the option to turn of side sensors and leave top/bottom on and vice versa.

Yes, they were on. I switch them off\go in sport mod on some tighter places though. But here the problem was AF ;)

The shift in focus is at second 26. I wonder about the flight through the tunnel having an effect, although I have no idea how.

I have had a similar experience with the M2P, however I have nowhere near your mileage so maybe operator ignorance on my part was the cause ;-)

I had a lot of this with my MP, then I sold out EVO 2 Pro for losing focus, but never had this with M2P ...
And it has nothing to do with You, You cant see this on a small screen of a controller - you barely see it on a PC at first might be will be wiser to try MF

NIcely flown Alex. I watched on fullscreen on LG 65" TV so noticed the focus problem, but that didn't stop my enjoyment of your video. Thank you.
