[QUOTE="msinger, post: 19484, member: 18"] Both the "ActiveTrack" and "Follow Me" flight modes can be used to follow an object. ActiveTrack requires the object to be visible at all times [I](since the object is visibly being tracked in DJI GO)[/I]. Follow Me follows the GPS location of the mobile device running DJI GO [I](which requires GPS on the mobile device)[/I]. The Spark does not have Follow Me, so the Mavic will be your only option between those two drones. By default, the Mavic [I](and all other DJI drones)[/I] are setup to auto return back to the home point when the remote controller signal is lost for 3 seconds. That means the Mavic would start returning home if your truck disappears behind a dune for 3+ seconds. You could change the remote controller signal lost setting to "Hover" to make the Mavic hover in place instead of returning home. However, I'm not sure Follow Me would resume when the remote controller signal is reestablished. If not, then you'd have to keep the Mavic closer so it stays within sight of the remote controller the entire time [I](which should be possible)[/I]. [/QUOTE]
