Why to use FlightYawDegree instead of GimbalYawDegree

[khaled-hammoud]

While I am looking the file photo.py, exactly here:

ODM/opendm/photo.py

Line 463 in 12e5b63

self.set_attr_from_xmp_tag('yaw', xtags, ['@drone-dji:FlightYawDegree', '@Camera:Yaw', 'Camera:Yaw'], float)

I see using of gimbal's roll and pitch BUT flight's yaw instead of gimbal's yaw, why?

On the other side when looking into file exif.py from opensfm, exactly here:
https://github.com/mapillary/OpenSfM/blob/537275b730d7a6417fce68c3645f69c834bddca3/opensfm/exif.py#L494

then I see what I expect or claim to be, is there any explanation for that?

My regards.

Is that not a potential misstype to be asked here?
