Adjusting Framing During Follow Mode
As you are being followed you can adjust the drones distance, rotation, altitude, and tilt with your remote controller. As this happens, the map preview shows the projected new location of the drone. The actual drone will move into this new location with a slight delay.
The faster your location is moving, the faster the drone will respond to inputs and moving to the new position.
