Hi Jacob,

During iOS polygon flight mission, the drone can fly backwards to optimize the flight path and the image acquisition.
It is expected behaviour.

Is it possible to make the drone fly forward all the time in polygon mode? Flying backward is not good for me when I mount a Parrot Sequoia on my Phantom 3 Pro. At the altitude I fly at, the drone is going about 13-15 m/s which mean it tilts forward while flying. To correct for that, I angle the Parrot Sequoia up so it is pointed straight down (not backwards) when it is flying at speed during the mission. If it is flying backward and forward during the mission, I can’t correct for that and most of the images are taken at an oblique angle.
