A person riding a horse in target mode (such as an active track, spotlight, POI) cannot keep targeting.
The rider is selected momentarily, but after about 1-2 seconds it is lost.
I repeated the selection of objects for roughly 30 minutes, but in the end I was not satisfied with the results.
It seems that the algorithm needs to be upgraded for users who want to record their own videos on horseback.
When I looked at the official video, it seemed to work well for people on motorbikes.
Please upgrade so that targeting works well even for people on horseback.

How fast is that horse going?  I believe the Mini 3 Pro can only track objects at relatively slow speeds.

Targeting does not work well even in a standing state, and targeting disappears quickly even if it is targeted.
Targeting doesn't work well while riding a horse.
Even if it is targeted by recognizing the upper body of a person, it seems to lose targeting as it merges with the horse.

In conclusion, is it that a person riding a horse is not recognized as a human being?

So do you think it will work with a "CENTAUR" ?

I tried active track on people standup paddling, kayaking, small catamarans, large catamarans.  I was pretty frustrated in all cases, just didn't seem to work well, lost tracking or lock or didn't recognize the object anymore so stopped tracking.  Maybe some of the weak signal/transmission issues played into this, but just felt meh about the active track feature.  Originally I though I would use it a bunch, now I don't think I would ever use it

How about targetting the horse and not the rider?

I chose not only the rider, but the horse and the rider as a whole.

I would also like to have the drone lock onto me when I am on a horse, but as Eric says, it drops the lock after a few seconds.  I have tried to have it lock onto me on foot, then mount, but it soon drops.  I put the drone above me in the center of a 50' round pen and it never made it more than a quarter way around before it failed.  I bought it specifically for this purpose, and it is very discouraging.
It will follow me on an ATV, and on a tractor, but not a horse.

Sorry about the inconvenience. ActiveTrack currently only supports vehicles referring to cars and small to medium-sized yachts. Rest assured we will forward your feedback to the relevant team. Have a nice day.

Hi DJI,

Are there any updates on this point? I am a professional horse-sport photo/videographer and sell a lot of photos and videos. Tracking closeup video with a drone in horse-sport is quite new, the demand is high. Are there any plans to add horses to activate track like my Canon R5mk2 does?
I own a Mavic 3 Pro Cine and the Mini 4 Pro.
