FOLLOW MODE. NOT WORKING AT ALL :/

matt j D

Cant seem to get follow mode working at all. Dont know what im missing, have watched all the YT vids, looks as im doing just the same setup but nothing.

Pixel 3 phone/DJI mini SE. Click yes to all the optios, Follow>Custom>Rc sticks> emergency , etc ect 

Set up camer looking at me. Press start, it will have a little spaz and then it will stop and look somewhere else. 
if i kinda adjust it to me, it just stays there, no following happening .

    A couple of thoughts.

    Is the phone up to the task?  The Pixel 3 is (I think) about 4 years old now.

    Are you sure you have provided location access (at the highest accuracy) to the phone?

    Pixel is an Android phone so they can all be slightly different - a quick Google should tell you have to make sure that location is turned on, accuracy is high and that you have given access to that from that app.

    On my Galaxy S21 I can find the DL specific stuff in Settings --> Apps --> dronelink --> permissions

    OK - borrow a phone with more power and try that.  DL needs a pretty beefy CPU to handle all of the calculations.

    Can you post a screen recording (not just the video from the drone but showing the whole UI).
