ACTIVE TRACK with the DJI Mini 2

Are those the Santa Clarita hills behind Tapia?

what is the app name?

Nice bro❤

Application link

THAT LOOKS LIKE HAPPY CAMP!

Warning the litchi app does not work with se model . Which sucks

thank you for answering all my questions and explaining why! great video man ty

Does this work on mini 2 se?

I have the mini dji 2. Is there a way i can be in my boat going about 40 mph and have the drone automatically follow me? Thank you

Totally retarded that none of the DJI drones have this simple function. EVEN THE NEWEST ONES.

Is this Santa Clarita?

Maven works a lot better

Hello from Switzerland.. very nice videos. Just one important thing.. I bought app Litchi, but is this app work only with VR goggles? I can’t sea camera cos it’s say all the time about VR goggles.. thanks for advice

Set your controller to cinematic, and set it to the speed you will run, for example. Walk the same speed and you can take longer shots with manual tracking.

I watch your videos so much so I wondered if you could send a drone to me in Africa in nigeria

Disappointed the Spark has this feature but not the Mini. Artificial gatekeeping ruins brands.

is the app free?

I've got a mini 2 and am going to upgrade to the mini 3. The primary reasons are the active track and the fact the viewing panel is built into the control unit.

very helpful thank you

Thank you

Maven App ?

Hi, Jeven! Thank you for video.
Please, tell, what is your favourite gimbal settings on the Mini-2 in each of the modes? And do it works well on Mini-3 into the bargain?

Good bro 👍

Maybe DJI will add this to the mini 1 and 2

How to make astronaut affect with mini 2?

dji spark is the best👌 old but gold..

As already mentioned elsewhere, if you just want the drone to follow you, then Litchi has a better and more reliable mode for doing this called "Follow Me" mode. It works better than the "Track" mode in this case. It actually follows the controller GPS and not you, plus you do not need to draw a box around yourself. This also works great when following a bike, motorcycle, car, boat, etc., just as long as the controller is also along for the ride. However in the case of following a moving vehicle, you will need to stay under a certain speed. Also it is recommended to have the drone far and high enough away to keep you centered (experiment to see what minimim distance works best for you). With the Litchi "Follow Me" mode you can even go behind large objects (that completely hide you) and it will continue to track you. You can also select which angle to have it follow you. I prefer this method of tracking, because I am more at easy knowing that the drone will always be locked on. However, keep a close eye on a drone that does not have obstacle avoidance such as the Mini or Mini 2, otherwise your drone may hit something.

Mantap👍

Hi I enjoy your videos and would like to offer this comment from the viewers perspective. - I realize there are differences in success with some of these functionalities in these 3rd party apps depending on what mobile platform you have, iOS vs android. Also apps and drone firmware forever updating. With that said, it would be critical to mention (in your video and/or in your description) if you are using iOS and android, which versions of iOS or android, and what is the current version of the app you are testing along with the firmware version of the drone. This way it will let us, the viewers know where you stand and how repeatable the outcomes will be for a similar setup. With out this info, your video is totally irrelevant. I humbly ask for you to take this into consideration.

Hi from Canada, got and idea, i will love if Dji do a update in there software and use a part of the quickshot, like the green square to put the drone focus on you and than you choose a timer like 10 , 15 , 20 sec. of tracking and maybe a warning saying look your surrounding and press OK

So the bottom line is that active tracking on mini 2 doesnt work.

Just use follow mode and the drone will track your remote very accurate 😀😀😀

Active track… till the first tree.

DJI won't add active-track (optical) or follow-me (GPS) because of their warranty. People will think it avoids obstacles and crash it. Then ask for a new drone, which they won't get, and DJI gets a bad name.
Of course people who know how to fly ( like children) will use the sensors they are born with: their eyes and brain. Unfortunately most DJI Mini people lack those sensors. They only have money and never learned to fly properly without GPS and get skills like orientation.
And yes of course it is ridiculous a hikers/bikers drone does not have either active-track or GPS. Now they are trying other quickshot 'hacks' and crash it even more often. Wouldn't it be nice to have a specially dedicated follow-me drone for a budget? Trust me, the Chinese easily can for $200. All technology is already there on cheap toy drones. They just need to put it in one package. Simple front sensor, 2k camera, reasonably good quality camera, small and silent possible, safe prop guards, audio sounds to hear where it is, controller with built-in GPS instead of a clumsy phone......
My Fimi A3, now that is a fantastic GPS follow-me drone. Or my $115 L109 Pro! The F11 is not too bad. But oh oh oh DJI! A Mini backpackers drone but you can't film your activities. What a joke!
The Litchi app however does a good job with GPS follow-me. Active track is not reliable.

Nice hack

Nah, Litchi is terrible. I wish they'd add active track to this little hummingbird.

Thanks bro

More importantly, what type of MTB do you ride?!?

My question is ,why doesn't Dji off this app ???? Why does another software app has to provide this tool? Why would Dji want to be losing 📉 out..🤔

I heard the Mini 3 will have obstacle avoidance. Not sure about tracking. I hope. I love my Mini 2

This video mostly makes me insane that DJI doesn't just update the firmware or something so it's built in. They have to be blocking it intentionally, right? To create separation in product?

Good info. Thanks

Mini2 is my first drone and I love it! But tracking sucks... That's why I just got an Air2s... I need it to follow me while I drive my jeep on the trail

So how make a hyperlapse with DJI mini 2 ? 🙏

Excellent and thank you for also showing just how bad this 3rd party app is

Your definitely right about how awesome the mini 2 would be with active track.

Hi Jeven, great vid as I was going to download the app to try but I won’t bother now, will DJI be able to add active track through a software update in the future or is it just not possible ??

So tricky without sensors. You have to be very sure there are no obstacles in the path the drone will fly

Love all your Video's. Ive learned a lot from you. Thank You. Chuck
