Becaus of lack of time and other interests, I only seldom fly my Anafi and til now only did this in maual mode.
But having read so much about the Air2's very good tracking functionality, i would like to know about Anafi's tracking abilites. I would like to film some Kiters and Windsurfers this year and so this is of interest.
Maybe somebody can chime in and help me to clarify this:
1. Is Anafi able to track someone else (not myself) and have the cam focused on the person? As I have read, the camerman mode allows to have somebody else in focus but you have to manually fly the drone to follow him. Is there a 'flollow and film him''-modus like in the Air2?
2. How and where is the home-point set in tracking mode?
In manual mode - as I understand - the homepoint is set to the GPS position where Anafi was startet, am I right?
But in Follow ME modus homepoint must be set to where the Controller is, otherwise this would not make sense, or? Activating follow me, then running 2km with the controller in my hand and in case of RTH Anafi would return to the far (2km) away starting point - would be not so good...
If there is a 'tracking somebody else'-modus (see question 1) where is homepoint set then? F.e. I'm on a boat wanting to film a surfer, 'follow-surfer' is started. Anafi AND me on the boat are following the surfer. Suddenly connection to Anafi is lost. Where is my homepoint - miles away or at the place where the boat (and I'm and the controller) are?
in all the the videos, I've seen so far, about Anafi's tracking, I never have seen anyone tracking a person who obviously does not have the controller in hand...
