looks like similar to selfie

well basically that example was a selfie
now imagine setting that up but camera locking to a 90 degree angle to something in the middle of the zip.
Now you get a combo dolly and crane shot locked on subject, then it is no longer a selfie

I don't agree, that it was a selfie. I made a 68 deg zip in front of me, then I turn the Solo 90 deg to look at me and then hit lock camera. Selfie can only go in the direction that the that the solo is point when it is engaged.

Thanks for the video. I have not tried zipline yet, but the video will help me get started when the app is available on android. It appears that the angle of the flight path is 90 minus the indicated camera angle. The video at the 1 minute 30 second mark shows a camera angle of 68 deg, which is 22 deg from the camera's horizontal position of 90 deg. So the flight path is 22 deg. So large values of indicated camera angle are shallow flight path angles.
