Camera tracking the drone while flying

- Updated camera tracking logic to maintain the "from behind" perspective while following the drone
- Adjusted camera offset values for better viewing angle (4 units back, 2 units up)
Benefits
- More intuitive drone control as forward/backward movements align with the camera view
- Better visibility of the drone's heading direction
Details

- Z offset: 2.0 (2 units above)
Controls
Same as before
Testing
