My video about Spotlight mode with the Mini 3: • DJI Mini 3 Pro Spotlig...
One of the most important upgrades of the DJI Mini 3 Pro compared to the Mini 2 is the ability to track moving objects. The three tools for tracking are grouped under the name Focus Track: Spotlight, Active Track, and Point of Interest.
In this video, I will analyze Active Track. It is the mode to use for autonomous tracking, in other words following a moving subject without the need of an operator to control the drone.
and to follow people, cars, cycles, boats, and so on. The ability to track, at times referred to as Follow me, is one of the most popular functionalities in a drone and therefore a significant selling point for the Mini 3, being the first DJI model under 250 grams to offer it.

These are excellent usage scenarios for Active Track on this drone and apart from what I’ve usually seen demonstrated! I think you did a great job of showing its intended use. Too many people compare it to a Skydio 2+, which is also excellent, but more like a like a faithful flying dog with great camera skills. I’m going to be using these as examples to explore AT on my Mini 3. Thanks!

What is not better on the mini 3 pro is the field of view of 82.1°. Mini 2 has 83.0. It might sound like a little, but it's still a difference. As a gift from above (DJI), you can buy a wide-angle lens (cheap) for the mini 3 pro and get a field of view of 111°, but a little blur in the outer edges.

Greetings, what’s the max speed. I tried tracking at 25mph, does ok. I was really expecting 45mph in spot mode.

@seasonedgambler9704 7 ай бұрын

Can the drone ascend while tracking? For example ascend from 6ft to 300ft while tracking a moving object. Is this possible? My decision to buy one heavily depends on this. Thank you.

@VICVideopIC 7 ай бұрын

Yes, it is possible, but you need to use Spotlight mode instead of Active Track. Here I explain how: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bcuBar2kt7yrnYk.html

Thanks. I didn't get to fly with the M3P much last year and today was the first day even partially OK for flying. The wind was too high, but I wasn't doing anything more than testing out active track for following me while videoing some dog training. WHAT? I totally forgot how to enter into active track, and burned through the battery goofing off, but not finding the active track options I knew where there. Thus, I came back here to find the obvious answer. User error. :0) I'd forgotten you have to draw the box versus open the option from one of the settings. I'm looking forward to the SDK release which per DJI should be early 2nd quarter of 2023, so pretty soon.

again, a great video! 2 comments: SMILE when on camera! You look very angry while walking on the hill 😉 2nd: your audio is very bad, the humming sound in the background and the total silence in the gaps are very distracting. Greetings from Germany, Uwe

@VICVideopIC Жыл бұрын

Thank you Wve, you are right, that day on Mount Etna it was horribly hot I was feeling very sick, I even fainted a few minutes later. Otherwise in general I try to smile as much as possible in my videos, as you can see from the talking head parts. Regarding the sound, I have been having some issues lately: I thought that my mike was broken, but then I realized that the culprit is the electric supply in my line that is not consistent. To be honest I cannot hear the humming sound and the difference compared to the silence, although I am not very happy with the sound in my recent videos. I will try a different mike

Follow-me and Active-track are two different things Follow-me is GPS. Active-track is optical.

@VICVideopIC Жыл бұрын

In most cases people these days refer to "follow me" as tracking himself, without the use of the remote control, as opposed to tracking sport, action, or other targets

@driewiel Жыл бұрын

@@VICVideopIC Most people don't know the difference between optical active-track and GPS follow-me. In particular people who never had anything else than a DJI drone. DJI doesn't use GPS follow-me anymore. Because their costumers will think it will go around objects even without avoidance sensors and then ask for a new one if they crash it. But to me it is ridiculous that a 'backpackers' drone like the Mini doesn't have a follow-me feature. Unless you buy a third party app that isn't covered by DJI's insurance. I mean isn't that what bikers/hikers want, footage of their activities? Instead DJI cripples their drones by not adding follow-me. Or only uses optical active-track with obstacle avoidance which requires a huge amount of programming and processor capacity. As for the name, I don't mind people calling follow-me a way of tracking. But it is not active-track. Follow-me is GPS. There are basically two types of GPS follow-me: compass, and string. Then there is a whole list of what makes a drone a good usable follow-me drone. Sensors are not part of that list. Although if it has sensors then all the better. The advantage of active-track is you can have the drone track someone or something else. And from close range it keeps you better in frame. The disadvantage is like I mentioned the processor speed. And it can lose you. That is why people who have used GPS follow-me with the Litchi or Dronelink app prefer it over optical active-track in most scenarios. DJI drones are the best on the market. But they do not fully understand what the consumer wants. They should make a real small portable pocket follow-me drone with small controller. One that is safe and crash resistant. A 'tracking' drone that can be used in real life situations. And not a Mini drone that only does landscape. Why would I need a mini drone for that?

@driewiel Жыл бұрын

@@VICVideopIC I wish DJI would make a new Tello with it's own controller and SD-card slot! That thing is great for selfies while riding my bike. Nice and small, prop guards. Or maybe a Fimi A3 Mini? Best GPS follow-me drone ever made. Built-in screen is handy so the controller can stay the same. The Fimi A3 follows so accurate, leaves any DJI drone in the dust. But it is too big and doesn't fold.
