I cannot say if he used Dynamic Track on his video, but even if he didn't, it should still work fine. As for landing, you do NOT need boat mode. Just get the drone close to you and grab it underneath. Be careful of not putting your hand under the sensors.
As for disabling boat mode in the Evo II, I believe it's a model specific problem. The Evo 1 does not do the bowl effect mentioned in the video. It should be fixed in later firmwares.
You can turn both OA and VPS sensors in the settings, but the bowl effect people complain about comes from the boat mode feature, whixh reduces the camera sensitivity. How or why that causes the bowl effect, it's anyone's guess.From videos I have seen do not people turn off those sensors? Not sure if that is even possible as I do not own the EVO series.
If you lose signal with your drone, it will return to the location it took off. It does not have a dynamic Home Point. In other words, if you take off at the marina and travel 6 miles while the Evo is following you, it will return and land at the marina. Keep this in mind when flying over water.Ok I got it . But if I lose connection how do I make sure that it doesn’t go back to take off position and land in the water.
What if you set home point to ‘me’?You can turn both OA and VPS sensors in the settings, but the bowl effect people complain about comes from the boat mode feature, whixh reduces the camera sensitivity. How or why that causes the bowl effect, it's anyone's guess.

It will set the Home Point on the coordinates you are located at the time you set this feature. Once you move away, that location will remain as it's home point.What if you set home point to ‘me’?
Just need to keep changing it as you go I guess? That's how I understood it to work.It will set the Home Point on the coordinates you are located at the time you set this feature. Once you move away, that location will remain as it's home point.
Yes, but here is the problem. When you change the home point, the app relies on the phone's GPS, which isn't a true GPS and it has a big error margin. You can try it, but I've heard stories of the phone giving the wrong coordinates and the drone going elsewhere.Just need to keep changing it as you go I guess? That's how I understood it to work.
Very good point.Yes, but here is the problem. When you change the home point, the app relies on the phone's GPS, which isn't a true GPS and it has a big error margin. You can try it, but I've heard stories of the phone giving the wrong coordinates and the drone going elsewhere.
The pilot will automatically blame the drone manufacturer, when in fact the phone is to blame. I wouldn't trust it.
