Please make sure the pilot to stay in the same orientation as the drone head faces when the drone is pairing.
While in Headless Mode, pushing the right joystick forward will make it fly in the direction that the head of the drone faces when the drone is pairing. To make sure the pilot can tell drone’s direction, during the flight, we recommend that  pilot stays facing the same direction that the drone head faces at pairing. By doing so it is ensured that when the pilot pushes the right joystick forward/backward, the drone will fly forward/backward toward him/her. If the pilot moves  the right joystick left/right, the drone will move left/right relative to him/her.
