Thank you for the video man!

[@leedonehower3112]

FINALLY! You're the first presenter on this subject that I've found that shows what buttons to tap and what settings to make to work in Focus Track. The others just demonstrate what each feature does without showing how to access it. THANK YOU! I'm definitely subscribing to your channel!!

[@MK-Creator]

Thank you you million times I was so nice to read. 🤩😃👍

[@FlyingCameraGuy]

Very good job explaining the tracking modes. I've watched it a couple of times.

[@MK-Creator]

Thank you so much! 🤩👍

[@2big2climb]

This is by far the best summary of the modes, period. I watched a variety of other vids that left me somewhat confused. I wish I would have found this first. You rock man! Thank you!

[@MK-Creator]

Wohoo!! Thanks a lot! 😃👍🏼

[@thatbme8736]

Excellent explanation of the Tracking Mode features and operation. Have had my mini 4 pro for about 4 months now and still confused with active shots. You answered a couple questions I had. Thanks!

[@RonanTOC]

Nice video thanks dude your style is professional and laid back simultaneously

[@leonardwolverine4377]

Good job , learned a lot . Thank you. From Alberta.

[@mycammedia]

Thanks so much - saw this changed on my controller just today and had no idea how to use the newer set up - didnt see it explained by anyone else. You covered everything accurately and in detail - awesome!

[@ashishvijayan6732]

Good job... Straight to the point & very clear instructions... 😊

[@MK-Creator]

Mission accomplished 🥳👍 Thank you so much 😊

[@m.m.5728]

Thank you so much for this video, which you uploaded 14 hours ago. I'm also still figuring how to take off the 1st flight right now.

[@sgtmaj2708]

Very informative video. Thank you for pointing out the various steps to enter a particular tracking mode.

[@MK-Creator]

Thank you so much!! Let me know if there was anything that you would like to see in another video :)

[@sgtmaj2708]

@@MK-CreatorI appreciate your reply to my comment. I assume you are now aware of the most recent update to the DJI mini 4 Pro program and the User Manual sometime in February, 2024. We now have FocusTrack consisting of Spotlight, Point of Interest (POI), and ActiveTrack. Originally, your tutorial had me confused, but then I realized it was made before the update. Since some things have changed (for the better) and new stuff has been added, another al-inclusive tutorial would be most welcomed welcome. Send me the “cup of coffee” link, and I’ll do my best to satisfy your request.

[@evets9141]

Thank you for the very well put together video explaining Active Shots. Im new to the 4 Pro and was looking all over the internet for Active Track. Had no clue it changed to Active Shots. Your video explained everything and was easy to follow along with. Just went out and followed your instructions and now I know how to utilize the functions.

[@IMPACT-NATION]

Awesome video man. Could you imagine having this technology when we were kids in the 90’s?😂.

[@riparianstudios]

I mean I don't know about you but I didn't have $1000 toys to play with in the 90s... 😂

[@IMPACT-NATION]

@ I hear you buddy😂. I was lucky to get a new hot wheel once a week. I remember putting two sticks in the ground and pretending I was driving a bulldozer. We were always outside as kids. These children nowadays are glued to the tablets and gaming screens

[@graphguy]

Well done! Best explanation I have seen to date.

[@MK-Creator]

Thank you so so much!

[@mikex691]

Excellent job !!!!!

[@chrisdickinson1762]

thank you, youve just helped me more than any other DJI video....... totally understand it now after watching this

[@AncientAviator]

Thank you Mats! Great job explaining the different choices in the Active Track mode. There was a lot of new material in the latest firmware update. Have a Happy New Year!

[@HERDADEdaBOAVISTA]

well done! Because you mention Active Shots as the actual label for the Active tracking (previous label) the explanation became perfectly clear. Tracking features become: Spotlight POI - Point of Interest Active Shots : Paralel Manual AUTO No other video, as far as I know, mentions the changes of the label s names neither refer the change in the operation graphics. Thanks! May I ask if you know how to reverse the thumb sticks (climb / descend ) functions on Mode 2. The forward move of the stick should translate in a descent movement of the aircraft and pulling it back should initiate a climb, as it does with conventional airplanes. I am a retired Air Line Pilot and it is hard to lose old habits. Thank you.

[@alanclarke-smith1465]

Well done. I have understood a lot more than the official site which is too fast for me ! I realise now this is a very powerful piece of kit and was making my brain hurt 🧠

[@MK-Creator]

Thank you so much. I’m very happy that you found your way here! 🥳👍🏼

[@patfish3291]

Tow very valuable Infos. 1) high input at manual active shots overwrite the settings of the cycles in the app until the next flight. 2) Parallel = Heading mode

[@GrumpyGrover]

Good video. Very informative and straight to the point.

😃👍🏼

[@ImmaFigment]

Thanks for the explanation along with demonstrating 👍🏾

[@TheL337trance]

Thanks for making this this tutorials. I recently bought my mini 4 and the video has helped me get up to speed with the modes

[@MK-Creator]

I’m so happy to hear that thank you so much for sharing your experience and welcome back many more times

[@ajmlima70]

Hi, nice video, does Obstacle Avoidance work in these ALL tracking modes?? For example, if you are doing a POI and you are doing a 360º and on the way there is an obstacle (tree), does it stop? Or in a mastershot (circle) he encounters an obstacle, what does he do? he stop? Thanks

[@superkaf]

Thanks! Now I actually need to start using this drone to do all this, bought it last year and still sitting there 😂. Very helpful though!

[@KeithLLewis]

@@superkaf I thought it was just me! I bought my Mini 4 over a month ago and still have never flew it yet!!! 😂

[@superkaf]

@KeithLLewis 😂😂😂, yes, I think we better sell ours lol

[@KeithLLewis]

@@superkaf I finally got out and flew mine but I was nervous 😬

[@superkaf]

@@KeithLLewis that's good. I'll try taking mine for a few flights to get the hang of it 😊

[@KeithLLewis]

@@superkaf Yes it’s best if you can go out in the countryside. I live in the city so you know how that goes! It’s a lot of fun once you start doing it. Good luck 👍🏾

[@markhall6918]

Great explanation and demonstration. Thank you!

[@rh16273]

My compliment for this clear explanation. top!

[@MK-Creator]

Thanks a million

[@jacksonmacd]

Agreed about the choice of words to describe the Parallel mode.

[@grossi46]

Really well explained. Cheers buddy 👍

[@MK-Creator]

Thank you 😁👍🌟

[@ChanceSadieTaylorMax4]

Thank you so much for explaining all this.....

[@alanc9133]

Love this video Thanks very much for sharing. Keep up the good work.

[@toplicadjordjevic9948]

Thank you sir for a wonderful tutorial

[@1FlyingCamera]

Excellent video! Would you recomend any of these to follow a driver on a go-cart-track?

[@Gordonbanksapp]

“Camera Motion” control…. So select Normal to reduce camera swinging? Or Fast for the gimbal to be more responsive? I would like the camera/gimbal to be more buffered so one doesn’t produce swinging motions when the controller itself is moving/swinging on the person.

[@leviconnelly79]

Thank you so much for making this video and being so clear. 😉 Love your videos 🙌

[@polepole9066]

Perfect quick video. 2👍🏻👍🏻 mate. Cheers and happy New Year 🥂

[@MK-Creator]

Thanks a million! Happy new year to you too! 🥳🌟🥂

[@RichardOutdoors]

What system were you using for your outdoor vocals? I’d really like to add dialogue to my drone shots. Thanks.

[@MK-Creator]

Hi, I used the Rode Wireless PRO: geni.us/rode-wireless-pro

[@richardmechler3328]

Very well done, thank you. I would really like to see more information on vehicle tracking!

[@timothystravels8492]

Great video, very useful. Thank you 😊

[@MK-Creator]

Thank you 🙏

[@stephancopart1220]

Thanks for the great video. Too many video adds though that is annoying but I understand since DJI doesn't reattribute you for this.

[@alfbaldwin7144]

Well done! Thank yiou

[@JM-xl3ij]

Thanks for your very informative video: on the Mini 4, I find that if I select a person or an object and use Spotlight or POI, then if I try to fly over that object, it stops and won't go further - despite being high. UNLIKE the Mavic 2P and Inspire - I cannot do a fly past above the person and keep the camera focussed on that person.

[@MCMOutdoors]

Great video. I really hope DJI add 2.7K video in a firmware update as it makes no sense to have removed it.

[@SirMcPete]

great job, thanks for your very well explaining 👍

[@MaximoJoshua]

Just ordered mini 4 pro, can't wait to get it. I'm really excited for some of these features. Have you done any videos on grading DLog-M?

[@TravelDroneee]

Is the drone following you because you have the remote? Or can i set my remote down n have it track me? Im looking to go cliff jumping and trying to figure out how i can get good footage. Thanks

[@omranmohammed8134]

Thanks for the video sir. Can we ise poi with 4k 60 fps ?

[@ZeroRogueFox]

Great tutorial video , thank you

[@KrishnaVittaldevBangalore]

Brilliant 🎉

[@MK-Creator]

Thanks 🙏

[@123beneloy]

With active shots, is it possible to set a maximum altitude and radius? Or is it completely automatic when it is in auto mode? Sometimes I like auto mode, but there. can be trees or something.

[@FinnGange]

Thank you for this informative video. For some reason, I got the latest update just a couple of days ago and I was surprised when I the same day should use Active Track to follow me on my bike. I hadn't seen the Auto Mode before, but selected it. That was a mistake. The actions the drone was made to do was all over the chart (and I don't know what all of them means). I got Hold, Helix, and Proxie and the drone soon lost sight of me. Honestly, can't see what the Active Track Auto function may be good for. Hopefully I will find more information on this, but your video was a great start.

[@MK-Creator]

I know the auto is not to much use for me at least. It just tries to alter between everything it can… 😳

[@FinnGange]

@@MK-Creator Yes, that is my impression as well. I found someone else who also uploaded something about Auto, but did not mention Proxie, but only that the Auto Function will automatically cycle through the options available (perhaps usable in a very open landscape following a person, but other than that, I will probably not use this function again). The positive thing about the upgrade is that you don’t have to press Go before you select Trace 🙂.

[@TadasCool]

Hello , active shots manual tracking mode i am missing circles on the screen, both inner and outer how to enable them??

[@brudes1849]

Excellent and didactic video, thanks ☕

[@pierre-marie.philipps]

Thanks!! very interesting!

[@garrettchace]

Please a video on cinematic landscape shots 🙏

[@clmrazmi]

Hi..I have a question this subject scanning option is not displayed in my remote This is mini 4 Pro.

[@paullucyk]

How low and close can you get the drone to yourself while using auto tracking?

[@tehteh606]

Thanks 🙏

[@OllieGleeson-p7r]

Question! For the Manual Active Shot, if you set it to be in front for example does it track your back if you begin walking backwards? In other words, does it recognize our moving direction or which way our bodies are facing?

[@MK-Creator]

Yes. If you watch the full video I think I demonstrate just that. The drone will try to determine in what direction the subject is moving and adjust its position depending on that.

[@S-teamwork]

It seems that the drone in Auto tracking Mode has the options Hold and Helix only. Am I right?

[@WasimHayatkhan]

Nice information brother

[@melmedina9104]

Hey Mats, I'm just wondering what kind of mic do you use for your RC2 controller? Any suggestions which are good & which one works for a reasonable price?

[@Travelbikeandrun]

NEED HELP--Every time I touch the circle it switches to a map... I can't figure out how to draw that green line

[@AusJohnny223]

Hey there Mats, great video. Can I please ask, do these tracking features all function at 4k 60FPS?

[@motorbiketales]

Yes they do .. resolution and fps are not coupled tracking

[@ramzikluikham5094]

Hello, pliz help me increase the avata2 drone height and distance, thanks

[@herbmayer4319]

Hi I go to control and when it opens subject scanning does mot show up at all on my screen. Am I doing anything wrong?

[@garyeaton6172]

How do you get POI to work on the Mini 4 pro I just can't get it to work any help would be appreciated

[@eastudios1]

I have a mini 3 pro, I want to use the active track but it seems is no longer called like that, activeshots instead. My complain is that I haven’t found a way to follow me with the drone automatically. Is there any way to do that?

[@MariusCicu]

Hello. I would like a similar clip for the Dji Air 3. Does the Dji Air 3 have the same subject tracking functions as the mini 4? I want to film close-up people, events, children, sports... Do you think the sound of the wings will be heard in the video?

[@abd-ei1yk]

NICE THANKS

[@mennosolarquest]

I do have a question; I bought the mini pro 4 and will use it on the great divide mountain bike route. What I hope to do, can’t find it so far and would like to ask you. I have seen the majority but I still would like to ask this question; I would like to film myself. The drone is hovering along the route. And it is on follow me mode. Is it possible to cycle along while the drone is following me? This while the drone stays where it is hovering. Is this possible? Menno from the Netherlands.

[@EricWarrenStruble]

Was the drone recording the audio?

[@nedflanders1559]

Drones do not record audio. The props and wind are way too noisy, and would drown out any other sounds.

[@FajriMaulana-c4h]

Can we use active track on portrait mode?

[@sja411]

If i set manual mode to be in front and i am walking backwards will it be behind me? Does the heading get set by the direction of movement?

[@jacksonmacd]

Relative to direction of movement.

[@khannaonwheels]

Thanks...

[@carolynarnold3270]

For some reason I can't get the active track to work, each time I touch the screen it adjusts the auto focus

[@geertschattenberg4437]

Hi i wonder about your version but i just bought a brand new dji mini 4 pro and it has these focustracks: 1. spotlight; 2. point of interest; 3. activetrack...are there different versions? bye Geert Malden the netherlands

[@danrouaphotography4270]

Hello. If you try to explain the moves of the drones but you move two steps in one direction then quick other three steps in other direction and keep changing direction after two steps and the drone don’t have time to show the soft patern you pretty much induce confuss

[@kinocchio]

My mini 4 pro crashed into tree branches when I was using active shots … it was tracking me from the side and I choose on the wheel to make it track from forward and it just didn’t see the tree branches. Gimbal is broken. I’m sending it now for repair. Not sure why the obstacle avoidance didn’t work.

[@robertmenasian8706]

I'm using the RC 2 controller, all the latest firmware updates have been installed, and I'm still not getting the manual "Active Shots" wheel. Would you happen to know if these firmware updates are rolled out regionally? If not, I'm at a loss, not sure what to do. Any advice?

[@ChanceSadieTaylorMax4]

This kind of socks... it has to be in t he air to do this, but I hit Activeshot , manual and go and the circle does not appear... updated it soon as getting it a week ago. All I want to do is have it follow me on the left... bout ready to take it back, nothing should be this hard.

[@Bamkb]

When tracking a boat why does the keep increasing in hight and not staying in position. It tracks but keep going up

[@Gordonbanksapp]

I find that the “increasing in height” problem exists in many activetrack shots. Eventually the tracked subject is lost. I wish DJI would tweak this problem.

[@Bamkb]

@Gordonbanksapp I'm only having the issue when tracking my boat it works correctly when tracking people other objects it's odd
