Apparently there is a 3 second lag too, so I bet it's better to turn (left, right, left right) than going straight with that kind of lag if you don't have a clear idea where you want to go.
Also the drone boats have different objectives, so if there us a filming-boat, it seems logic it'd turn a lot.
Armchair general Valmond ar your service.
Wow if it's really that high, then organizing an attack with 10 drones is extremely impressive!
I'd have hoped that the lag would be lower, because Starlink has a lower orbit than geosync satellites. My hunch would've been 100ms one way, for a complete round-trip delay of 0.5s at most.
I'd bet that after starlink was disabled once mid operation, they'd rather eat a donkey's dick than rely on Musk's ass again.
