Can my Mavic mini drone follow me on my jet ski??

[@nsvaluto48328]

This exactly what I am think for my Air 3 but im nervous about where to land it if i need to land it for low bateery. Otherwise very cool thank you for making it!

[@ObiSkiTV]

Yea man. Appreciate you for showing love!! 🤙🏼

In order to have your drone follow you, it is required to have the controller with you while jet skiing right? I am going to be on jet skiing this weekend and curious is to my best option to keep my controller safe from getting water damaged and was wondering what method did you use?

[@ObiSkiTV]

Hey. So with this drone, the Mavic mini 1 I did have to have the controller on me. I actually put it in the dry bad I have over my shoulder. It worked pretty well overall. However the newer drone I have “the skydio 2” there is no controller needed. On that video I only use a small little beacon. It’s a great drone for this type of content. Hope this helps

Nice!!! Here, get a Like! I would love to know more about this app you found. I am about to buy a Mini , but was unsure because of the follow me feature.

[@ObiSkiTV]

Thanks man. It’s called Litchi. Remember The mini one does not have sensors to avoid obstacles. You have to make sure there’s nothing around. But it will follow you. Not too bad for $20

[@jnasjr]

@@ObiSkiTV oh! I remember Litchi when I used to have a Phantom. I thought they would not exist anymore. Thank you very much for answering.

[@piccojm]

You did a good job!

[@ObiSkiTV]

Thank you!!

We have the same drone. What do you think over all of the footage you got from that app? I noticed a few times it seems like you out ran the drone or maybe the drone didn't follow your switchbacks. Did you have to reset during those times? To be honest when you went under the bridge my heart stopped. Makes me nervous that that drone could have crashed. Lol

[@ObiSkiTV]

So you’re right, it’s not the best by any stretch to follow since it wasn’t built for it. It’s more of a feature I have been able to use on an older drone for $20. You will have to definitely edit the footage since it can’t keep up at slightly higher speeds. I was also pretty nervous that day but I just went for it lol. The good thing is on follow it’s not following an object on the screen but instead the remote, so when I go under the bridge it still is following the remote.

[@professionalweekenders]

@@ObiSkiTV Thanks for the advice. I did watch some other videos specifically on this software. Looks pretty neat; I'll have to try it out.

lol I was like he is a bold and daring!

What’s the go pro settings on for blurry background?

[@ObiSkiTV]

That’s actually shot on my iPhone with cinematic feature.

[@robfrasier9412]

Where was the transmitter? Does the transmitter need a direct connection to the drone or can it be in the jet ski compartment?

[@ObiSkiTV]

I put the controller in my dry bag on my back. It follow it without a problem. I like it better that way so it doesn’t bounce around in a compartment.

Hey Bro, I plan to go to turks in February, I want to get a drone for jet and car skiing that will follow me, what drone should I get and is it easy to learn how to do that?

[@ObiSkiTV]

Hey brother, sounds awesome! If your goal is to have it follow you I would suggest the Skydio. It’s an awesome drone but you have to find it on a secondary market since it’s no longer made for consumers. I got mine on Facebook marketplace. Here is a link for my video to give you some info on it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oqO5dniejrZsmcUsi=tkNQ8TSxJ9xgz0mx
