I go through the new ActiveShots 360 Auto mode for the DJI Mini 4 Pro and the DJI Air 3. This is a new option under the FocusTrack functions and adds to the existing ActiveTrack 360 set of auto flight modes, which is an easy way to get truly cinematic video with dynamic shots and getting the very best out of your drone.... A great, easy tutorial to explain the best settings for your drone.

Thoroughly enjoying your stuff Ian, just got my 1st drone (DJI Mini 4 Pro) and can't wait to get out there, I live close to the North Yorkshire Moors so there is plenty of scope for some epic flights there (as long as I don't go too near RAF Fylingdales or Sutton Bank Gliders Club). I've subscribed so keep those tips coming !! Cheers John.

I'm still trying to exhaust the possibilities of the Mini 3 Pro...and get better at flying. I've been 'lucky' a couple of times: in a town park a couple of weeks ago I sent mine up to about110m and forward . Stopped to take in the view then thought I was doing a 360...I wasn't. I was sending the drone sideways almost to a local country park. I thought I had just lost focus on it (happens so easily with a grey drone on a grey sky). RTH rapidly! Prior to that in 'follow' mode I sent it crashing into trees while trying to hide the RC. Broke props sadly, but replaced them in the car. Take care out there but have fun!

Thanks for the tips, although I haven't moved up from my Mini 3 Pro yet. I mentioned to someone else here that I used follow mode recently (on a woodland track close to a road) and had an immediate disaster. As I walked away I tried to hide the RC in a large jacket pocket. Must have touched the screen or jiggled a joystick and the drone shot off sideways into the trees and snapped a couple of props. I counted myself lucky that it didn't shoot the other way and into the road! An open landscape, like yours here, is definitely more forgiving if you make errors. 🙂

Mini 4 Pro does have good obstacle avoidance all round, unlike the 3 Pro that is only forwards... 👍🏻👍🏻

@TerryMcGearyScotland 4 ай бұрын

Actually it has forwards, backwards and downwards. Pretty good, hence I'm not changing up quite yet. The Mini 4 has upwards added? From DJI site: Forward Precision Measurement Range: 0.39-25 m Effective Sensing Speed: Flight speed

Hi Ian, I'm back after being terminated by KZfaq 3 weeks ago as unfortunately they can't or won't differentiate between naturism (filmed by drone at a distance) and pornography apparently uploaded for sexual gratification!!! So after countless appeals and emails being rejected I've had to start again with a new login and name etc. Anyway, another great video with lots of useful information, I must remember to keep my clothes on when trying out all the features!😂

Hi Ian, My BIG complaint would be an automatic sticking a subject in the middle of the screen. I was a TV Cameraman, obviously we carefully ‘composed’ shots for best effect. Active track is just robotic and bland! Simon Blackburn, East Suffolk Drone Photography✌🏻

Fair point, but I'm the absence of a flying camera man, it's not a bad result 😉. It doesn't always keep things in the centre either, but yes, some more configurability would be good....

Just a thought from an old audio guy, but maybe reduce the bass boost on your audio a little. It comes across as a bit ‘boomy’.

VLOS rules specifically allow for follow -me modes if they're less than a certain distance away; have to check but I think it's 50 metres

@IaninLondon Thanks Ian I was not aware of that. I may now consider upgrading from mini2 as off to France in moho in May and 50m on auto may take pressure off a bit.

Hi Ian. Hope you don't mind, but getting an answer from DJI is impossible! This concerns the RTH function on the Mini 4 Pro when using it in Tracking mode in a Car. Before each flight for this I specify the RC to be the Homepoint, but when I am about a Mile or 2 away from start point the Rc is beeping at me telling me The Battery is Low and Drone will return to Homepoint, So I check the Battery level and it is at 50 or even 60%!... The Drone says it is going back to the Start point So I have to Cancel the Active Track (POI or Trace) and concentrate on getting the Drone Down, Changing Batteries and starting all over again!.. I really Do think there is a Bug in the Software, and I think You are the perfect Man to bring this to the attention of DJI who simply just don't want to know from the likes of me! All the best, Percy.

@IaninLondon Ай бұрын

I'll have a play and test this, but I'm guessing that just because you tell it that the remote is the home point, it simply sets the current location of the remote as the new home point, and doesn't dynamically update the home point as you move. All you can do is force the home point to update every few minutes. 👍🏻

@exmoorbaydrones Ай бұрын

@@IaninLondon Yes Ian, it seems DJI have failed to include this absolutely essential function when Flying an Active Track mission in a vehicle. I don't know their reasoning for this, it just seems crazy not to even give the operator the Choice let alone have it set as default when in this particular mode. It really has spoiled the whole Tracking vehicle experience for me, I honestly thought there was something wrong with the Drone!
