Great video. As an ER Nurse, I couldn't help feeling concerned about the person on the skateboard not wearing a helmet. A drone can be sent back to DJI for quick and easy repairs, but a brain is much more fragile and difficult fix.
Here's my 2 cents with this situation: The drone is set to track a person, the algorithm expects a person's speed. The target gets on a one wheel, skateboard, bicycle, etc, traveling at a speed far exceeding a person, the drone tries to compensate but fails. Crash. I'm guessing the near ground setting will only work at walking pace. The Auto Active Track won't work while tracking a vehicle. You're cheating the system by having it track you and then getting on a one wheel, skateboard, bicycle, etc. If nothing else, this is DJI's main weakness when it comes to Active Track. I will say that some of this might be mitigated in the settings by adjusting the inner and outer circles. Just a thought.
Air 3 survived that crash VERY WELL!!! I'm impressed!
Great production quality, Billy. These ActiveTrack tests are awesome!
Thanks Eddie it’s because I edit with Final Cut Pro
I did an auto tracking test with Air 3 after doing the update, and I had no issues. But I was just walking on the beach, so I think the slower speed allowed it to perform better. And I had no trees or telephone poles/wires to deal with. Great testing, thanks for sharing. Sorry for the crash, I hope the drone is ok.
Love these videos im just getting back into flying and got the DJI Avatar pro kit. Been watching your videos with it and wow some great flying and good info.
Shoe rescue. I'll have to keep that one in mind!
If I did that. I would fully expect to be walking home with no drone or shoes.
Good recovery Mav! Great catch.
Great video as usual brother and you make riding that one we look so easy but I think the drone is trying to track something faster than a human walking. Also nice catch!
NICE CATCH!!!
Well done 👍
Cool
You can change the home spot to follow the controller as well.
The active track videos are really what I'm fond of. I still believe that the Skydio 2/2+ has the advantage hands down. Please keep them coming and have a safe New Year. 🙏
Thanks Keith! They are fun to make.
I concur on the ability of the Skydio system (I own two Skydio aircraft). Unfortunately, Skydio dumped on its initial customer base... To quote Ken Dono, "F*ck Skydio!"
@edruttledge342 Yes indeed, Skydio abandoning their consumer base in regards to sales is a bummer to say the least. They have not abandoned the repair side for the consumer side which is a good thing. I got mine repaired a month ago.
@@keithbrown454 Good evening Keith. I have had some sort of dumb luck with my Skydio 2 and 2+. No repairs ever needed. But, the reality is we Skydio owners have been dead-ended. No new firmware. No new features. No new aircraft. Bummer ... as the Skydio has unparalleled obstacle avoidance. I just added a DJI Air 3 to my "fleet" to re-learn the DJI piloting experience (I had DJI before) - much has been improved since the days of the original Mavic. Be well.
@edruttledge342 oh yes, I agree whole heartedly. DJI have improved there obstacle avoidance systems tremendously. I still have the Mavic 2 Pro and that drone will always be a solid performer. Their autonomous performance has gotten better too. Keep flying and be safe out there. You be well too.👍
really nice place for flying the drone.... OMG....
Running red lights like there’s no tomorrow. The on-wheel is a motor vehicle, right?
Thanx for the video Billy. Love the golf course videos. I totally agree about letting the drone have to much freedom. And please be very careful with that onewheel. I've had the Pint. It crashed me 3 times. Thank God I was wearing protective gear. I don't trust FM any longer nor support them.
great demo of auto active track i had small crash too with mini 4 auto active track lost me and tried to calculate where i might be and hit some small branches was good up to that point but all was good nothin broken
Good video - I just got an Air 3. Great save! One has to wonder if the Active Track Auto Mode meets the concept of Pilot in Command. Just a thought.
Great insight Billy. Bringing the Air 3 out to Jean Dry Lake Bead just south of Vegas today to try out the new update on Active Track. Can't get more wide open than that. Should be able to really put Auto to the test. Definitely will follow up with a video. Thanks again Billy! Let me know if you're coming out to CES in a couple of weeks.
Love the video, and showing the capabilities and limitations of the current iteration of the ActiveTrack feature, BUT I think you engaged the AUTO feature at the worst time. It's a already a known issue with tree branches, and you started it right before passing by several. I feel the AUTO mode is to give you 'automatically" a flight of various tracking angles and altitudes for a more interesting and dramatic video, but turning that on without giving the drone a sizeable canvas of movement defeats the whole purpose of the mode's intended use. Good job testing and showing what happens though, so others may learn about the mode's limitations. Keep the videos coming! Happy New Year!
Billy, is it possible that because you set the distance levels and height levels prior to setting the close to the ground enabled that you have the drone fighting itself trying to stay at the higher level you set earlier, but then also trying to compensate for low flight with the low flight enabled?
自動追尾ってすごい👍
Smoooth rescue 😅 8:36
Didnt you post this earlier
Had to reupload. I messed up the export.
I didn't read alll of the comments, But from MY understanding, when you turn on "Low Ground Flight", THAT MODE DISABLES the obstacle Avoidance sensors...so that it CAN fly low to the ground without the sensors raising it higher... Check your safety settings next time you turn that feature on... and Correct me if I'm wrong! Thanks!
Weird how DJI doesn't give this update to the Mavic 3 at the same time.
With the new firmware update, I am with the camp that believes Activetrack Auto tracks poorly. I am flying/tracking in open areas. I find Auto mode tracks for a few swings around me but ultimately the Mini 4 ends up very high hovering above me and tracking subject (me) lost. Hoping for another firmware update soon.
How do you record audio from the drone or how is your audio sync with the drone?
Where do you get that the programming takes into consideration ‘human speed’? I doubt it. It is more constrained by its inherent abilities. But if you have some documentation I’d like to see that.
please provide link for the board used in video
Dude, I'm not sure what's going on but the last few videos you've uploaded in the past month or so, you re-uploaded three or four different times on the same video.
there was no screen recording is the earlier one, he noticed it after uploading
I messed up the export so I had to reupload
Billy I need you to really focus, I’m paying nothing to watch these videos and because I’m paying nothing to watch this free information I expect it all
The funniest thing about Active Track is the only time I see it used is for review videos! Hahaha! Spot Light is useful, Active Track is a crash waiting to happen.
I have an issue with my active track.. it'll recognize a vehicle or a person, but it won't lock on a person sitting on an ATV.. frustrating...
I thin the active track is a good feature, but I don't see the point in the auto mode.
Thank God for sneakers lol
What about [ DJI AIR 2s ] Billy ? will we See Anything new in updates ! Still keeping it after 3 yrs / 941 AIR-Flight Miles and one damaged motor-arm repair which dji Sent me back a New Air2s last yr. !
One day! Perhaps the algorithm will combine with processing power, to compensate more quickly. Until that day, I don’t trust the drone beyond my own two thumbs. Direct manual control. I have never seen a video that gave me complete, worry-free confidence in automatic modes/program algorithms.
At least you can ride a one wheel! Great review!!! 👍👍👍 Now I just need the weather to get better so I can get out there!
Hahaha I love the OneWheel
Done isn’t better than perfect. If you are saying man I seen this video before well it’s because he wanted it perfect either way the screen recording. Relax… he’s providing refunds for the previously viewed video
If anyone is going to fly using active track, because it is clearly NOT a fail safe activity, then prop gaurds should always be used. The biggest benefit is that you will be able to fly more often. If you want to use your drone like a bumper car get an Avata. Which has prop gaurds buit in.
I have been flying R/C craft in one form or another for 5 Decades so if you want to fly through woods more often then get prop gaurds! and screw the tiny weight gain. 😊
The Avata flies 140 km/h!
Why did "obstacle sensing" fail on $1k+ drone?
What is the point of having 360 obstacle avoidance if you only trust it when it wouldn't be needed?
It's almost as if they need a PSA that reads, "Dear Drone Consumer, For your convenience we have installed 360 obstacle avoidance cameras on our drone. Please only use 360 obstacle avoidance in wide open areas where the drone has no possible way for it to hit anything. This is the only way can ensure that our cameras will operate properly. Signed, DJI"
I just tried out this new Auto Active track today. My Mini 4 Pro just could Not even see me, let alone Follow!.. Just abysmal performance. Currently re-packing and sending the whole lot back now! PLUS..when doing a Video, the mode got stuck in Night mode!, Just could not get it back into normal mode, Everything seems to be fucked up after the latest Update!?
Reupload?
there was no screen recording is the earlier one
Yeah I messed up the export
Throws shoe and catches drone in one motion and acts like that wasn't freaking AWESOME. 😊
Why does the actual footage look so.... idk, choppy? jumpy? artifact-ey?
Why u posting the same video 3 times?
there was no screen recording is the earlier one
I messed up the export
This is why DJI's active-track is a useless gimmick in real life. But follow-me that you can and will use. And it can work perfectly on a $50 drone.
I don’t understand why would you delete and repost. I would imagine this hurts the views count and revenue
Only thing he changed was to show the interference of the new 360 focus track menu and options !!
I messed up the export 😂
@@billykyle ya dudes acting like you tried to hide the results and the crash and ya didn’t 😆
@@billykyle ouch. Sorry bro
fail
It's always fun to see how DJI's active track is still lagging way behind the Skydio 4-year old technology. Watching people test DJI's latest effort always brings up the elephant in the room, why has DJI not designed a beacon? Carrying any full featured flight controller, especially with a display, just seems absurd. DJI is so far ahead of the competition in every other area, yet they have failed to go down the beacon path. Maybe 2024 now that Skydio has abandoned it's root base and taken to politics to move ahead?
BTW, great interview with the DJI dude in Australia. I feel that the political games being played will stall competition, something that we need in the drone technology space.
😂😂😂 I went ahead and bought the mini 4 pro and I must admit, the active track sucks!!! I love all the other drone features but coming from a Skydio 2+, DJI has a lot of catching up to do in the active track department. I dont care what non of yall say🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️
lol damn
