Great job as always, Billy! Was pretty sad to see it crash right out of the gate but it did well afterwards (for the most part). Hopefully they'll dial it in a lot more as it still seems unreliable. I don't think the beacon will change much though. Whether it's active tracking you or tracking a beacon, the obstacles will remain the same. Mini 5 Pro next?
Good stuff, Billy! I marvel at your ability to walk and chew gum simultaneously. Or, in this case, ride a OneWheel, fly a drone, and narrate simultaneously.
It's a setting, You can set the altitude of the drone while doing active track. Yours was very high but you can make it lower and it will go like the neo.
Can you adjust the height? Kinda scary. I just got mine yesterday and charged everything up. Will be flying today. But probably won’t try the tracking just yet. Great video and info! 😃🐾🐈⬛🐝👍
Got mine as well last week. I had a couple of quick test flights and an amazingly fast drone and quality camera. The next test is active tracking like Kyle.
Yes, in settings you can adjust both the inner and outer radius length (how far away the drone will try to follow) and inner and outer heights (how far above the ground the drone will try to be when not avoiding obstacles). It also has a setting for allowing it to fly under 2 meters. Meaning it could fly below human head height to try and avoid lower hanging obstacles.
Billy pretty sure you can go into the settings and adjust max height and lateral distance when using Active Track. Assuming you did not so that before trying it out, that would fix the flying to high problem.....Maybe.
This lider should have detected this very interesting….. I’m assuming Dji is gonna make the lidar sensors 360 in the future watch my word on that one.. they scam us with 1 lidar sensor.. why can’t you just replace all the obstacle avoidance with lidar????
What is you workflow with perfectly syncing the audio with the drone footage? If you have made a video illustrating how to do so please put it in the link or point me in the right direction.
Thanks… I would had charged my OW GT-S before the ride. The last thing I want to do is lug a dead OW back home. I ordered the Air3-S last Sunday… we’ll see if it gets through customs w/o a fuss in CO. Good job articulating the details of active tracking. I don’t know anything about this “beacon” product. Who is developing this accessory?
Hi Billy. I see some kind of blur phantom image around you and your shadow as you move. Maybe something with the encoder? Maybe added by the compression algorithm of your editing software? Maybe my computer here? I don't know.
@@billykyle I meant while you were flying , the road below , had some black patches on .. what were they? Around 1:45 there about ... Just curious. The Air 3 s looks good . But currently I have the Air 3 as my 3 drone now.
How awesome would’ve been if you would’ve had like Insta360 or something on him facing the drone so we could see you at the Drone was doing would love to see another video like that, we wanna see what the drone is doing, and how it reacts to the trees,,☝🏼
Billy, did you actually walk all way back home with your monowheel in the left hand and the drone in the right? okay, that's not how e mobility is supposed to work, lol.
That 3S looks like overkill in a post-Neo/X1 tracking world...and not even doing a good job for this type of tracking. It would work to track a car in an open environment where the Neo would be useless.
All those sensors and the following logic is total garbage. Just use the NEO team for ALL the DJI products… it’s the only drone from the company doing the job correctly. The strategy is VERY simple. In difficult scenarios just stay low and close to the subject. If the path is clear for it it’s safe for the drone as well… It’s so easy you can’t go wrong, but they do.
@Taino76 he did the sensors tests before on air 3 and it hit and it was understandable he even said those small branches may not be detected, but lidar yaaaayks 😵😵😵
@@dronetheworld4k67 yeah but them branches might be thin but it's a bunch of the together lol.i understand 1 or 2 skinny twig's but a tree like that it should of detected it
Camera quality and image on that unit are true quality for drone of it's price point.
Thanks Fer The time In!!

Would be great to see an air 3/3s night footage comparison. Got lucky with that tree catch! 😮

Right? he is good! 🤣
The zoom lens whilst tracking helps SOOO MUCH
@@KentRoads how so?...
It's a setting, You can set the altitude of the drone while doing active track. Yours was very high but you can make it lower and it will go like the neo.
that emblem is on the mini 4 pro too...
Another great Billy Kyle video! Kudos👏👍😎
wow, the trees😂 and beautiful neighbourhoods
yes, incredibly beautiful
Hi Billy, how would you rank the new Air 3s to the original Mavic 3?
Is it much smaller?
Is the obstacle sensing and video quality comparable?
Can you adjust the height? Kinda scary.
I just got mine yesterday and charged everything up. Will be flying today. But probably won’t try the tracking just yet.
Great video and info!
😃🐾🐈⬛🐝👍

Just now got everything downloaded and will try it out in a bit. Will start in an open space 😅
Yes,

Came to watch when I saw the onewheel :D couldn't find your mic, where is it hidden?
Nah, I'm good. Fam ma 3 hasn't crashed yet. Let me go knock on wood 😂
Hey tree, good catch!😂
😂😂

Yes you definitely can. I really get tired of these self-proclaimed "drone experts" who don't know the features of their drone.
I wonder if the sun confused the sensor?
Those ghost branches! 👀
This lider should have detected this very interesting….. I’m assuming Dji is gonna make the lidar sensors 360 in the future watch my word on that one.. they scam us with 1 lidar sensor.. why can’t you just replace all the obstacle avoidance with lidar????
Lidar sucks for some type of material, soft items like clothes towel, vision sensor works better in that situation

This video is making me nervous just as if I was flying through a bunch of trees! I’m fricken ducking and weaving! Still love it though
😂😂 You are keeping it real. Those thin vines get all drones it seems. I like that my drones can track but I don’t trust the trees 😂. They love drones.
Thanks.. Do you set obstacle avoidance to brake or bypass?

Billy, what is on the street ? How much patching has been done on the road? Is it a new road design?
What?
@@billykyle I meant while you were flying , the road below , had some black patches on .. what were they? Around 1:45 there about ... Just curious. The Air 3 s looks good . But currently I have the Air 3 as my 3 drone now.
We need another video, Where to buy Air 3S in America? :))
How about testing it wearing green?
It has settings for height and distance from subject.
So can you set it to max height 15 max distance 20 or so? Seems obvious that on a path with trees that the closer the drone follows the better.
What your audio setup?
So the lidar detection is not good for that many tree branches?
Is it better than skydio 2? On obstacle avoidness?
How awesome would’ve been if you would’ve had like Insta360 or something on him facing the drone so we could see you at the Drone was doing would love to see another video like that, we wanna see what the drone is doing, and how it reacts to the trees,,☝🏼
Billy, did you actually walk all way back home with your monowheel in the left hand and the drone in the right? okay, that's not how e mobility is supposed to work, lol.
I think I’m a gonna wait till DJI release the AIR 4. Hopefully that’ll come out with ‘truth’dar, and it’ll avoid everything.
If you enable near ground then the drone will go below the trees to dodge it more easily
Soooo… how did you get back home?
it should track your path and then use that as it's own path
Did you have this on auto exposure? Just wondering why you were so over exposed.
I am good with my Air 3.
Did you take your Avata down to Wonderland..??
So how are you not picking up the noise from the props. Does it sync with the DJI mic 2?
Good question
Can you do review on low light video
great question Thanks
How are you recording voice?
Thanks for asking this question!! Recording through your iPhone works but the quality of the recording is not the same!!
12:00 she almost went into the stream, saw that little shake from hitting the branch lol!
It’s happened before 😂
That 3S looks like overkill in a post-Neo/X1 tracking world...and not even doing a good job for this type of tracking. It would work to track a car in an open environment where the Neo would be useless.
Nope ...need to see the screen capture showing the features...
If like that, I might as well spend my money on a DjI mini 5 pro 🤔
First ❤ Did I win a free drone?
IMO Air 2S still does a better job at tracking
This is factually false
So we know that little branches and wires are still going to trip up this drone, even with LiDAR.
lol
LiDAR failed !!! I am keeping my Air 3!!
LiDAR shouldn’t be the reason you upgrade. It would be the camera and improved speed.
@@JoshConnectMediaLidar is more for low light
@@billykyleTrue that! My Air 3S arrives today. Own Air 3 and Air 2S. I do commercial real estate imaging.
My drone simply won’t do this.
Think Skydio still better follow drone
I'll stick with my air 3. 😂😂😂
Billy deleted my comment.
LOL no I didn’t 😂
Many comments are deleted by TH-cam itself
