After the update Crypto's drone is behaving strangely.

I'm playing on PS5; I've confirmed this in Bot Royale.

Since the update, Crypto's drone has a sense of momentum that makes it difficult to control. I seem to recall it functioning this way a few seasons ago, but I’m used to the version without momentum, so I’d prefer it to be one way or the other. This is particularly troublesome when trying to use survey beacons during a match, as I often struggle to complete the action successfully.

Also, while the view is supposed to switch to first-person—hiding the drone from sight—my drone actually appears within my field of view, which also interferes with control. Even if this is caused by packet loss, the game shouldn't behave this way.

    As an additional note, packet loss almost invariably occurs when operating Crypto's drone. While this might be specific to Bot Royale, the issue could potentially cause additional packet loss—for instance, during periods of high latency—and place a heavy load on the system, regardless of the players involved.
