Aerial Video clip of M6 from a DRONE

Quick experiment on a quiet country road with my Drone (Mavic Pro) where it can automatically track and follow an object (my M6 in this case) see
- a crude first test but could create some nice footage when i get more experienced using this flight mode. Thought people might find this an interesting M6 footage

That's cool. But the drone won't be able to keep up with a M6! Lol you'll have to drive pretty slow

It’s true and when I took thats first shot it was very windy. Should be able to keep up at 30mph and this was set up to follow behind but i need to work out how to set the shot up so it films from the side (& keep up) and when im more confident i can set the distance away from the car (keeping it safe) to be much closer.It’s a bit unnerving driving and assuming the Drone is doing its thing on its own It’s also possible to circle the car while im driving but have to find a really clear road lol.
