Orbit Mode: Drone Not Correctly Pointing at Central POI When Taking Photos

Today, while performing an orbit flight, I noticed that when taking photos facing the central POI (the center of the orbit), the drone was not correctly pointing at the POI

I have noticed the same thing. The heading should point to the right more if the drone is orbiting clockwise, and should point more to the left when rotating counter clockwise. It’s quite a significant offset that should be corrected. @vico

We are aware of this issue and it’s something we are working on for a future update.
In the meantime, you could achieve better accuracy by either reducing the speed, increasing the radius, or both.

Any updates on this topic?

No further progress at this time. We have a good idea of how to fix it and did some preliminary testing outside but priorities have shifted lately to improve support for KMZ workflows
