I was testing out spotlight mode locking onto a stationary subject. My only stick input was either hard left or hard right. I am pretty sure I was not pushing forward or backward on the stick. I expected it to do a perfect circle around the subject. As you can see it moves further away from the subject as it circles. I took the image as it was in the first circle with the stick hard left. As you can see the second circle with the stick hard right has an even more exaggerated movement away from the subject.
Thanks. I had watched that before. I am trying to understand why the drone moves further away from the subject when my only stick input is hard left or right.
From what I can gather spotlight just keeps the camera on the subject, so if you move left or right the drone will yaw as well to keep the subject centre but the drone will move further away
I thought spotlight was for keeping the drone still and just yawing as object as it moved past the drone.
Flying round a fixed point is POI mode, and it does that without any input on the sticks.
