Changing flight course distance tolerance using a marker or something else.
DJI Air 2s
I fly near obstacles at low levels and don't want the drone to deviate more than 8 feet from course; this actually works fine. The problem is that higher speed winds aloft (250 ft ATL) can make the 8-feet course tolerance too small. This happened twice at the same spot where speed was slowed to accommodate very slow rotation of 180 degrees.
Air Data calculated wind at 2 mph at surface (actually measured wind velocity 2-3 mph) and at 4.15 mph at 250 feet so it wasn't so windy. The second flight had wind at 8 mph at 225 ft.
I'm guessing that the only place to establish course tolerance is in the settings, unless I'm mission something.
I need to look at more flight log details to confirm conditions.
Further review of plan. Market 2 sets speed at 8 mph and speed remains constant to market 5 where it is set to 3 mph. Mission aborted at about marker. The mission preview shows sharp speed decrease at marker 5. I had horizontal deceleration at -13 fps. I suspect that the drone was not able to smoothly adjust speed and thus caused off course error. I may try again with horizontal deceleration at a much lower rate.
