I must say something is wrong with the drones. I always have my drones chicken out shortly after takeoff. it gets annoying

(You need to fly straight and climb until the drones get into formation or they won't follow you.)

The only way to keep them in tow is to slow way down, flaps down, then watch them come around...they won't pass you. Not a great choice if you're being dived on...but really the only way.  :joystick:
