    Adding the Insta360 GO camera to the Tello

    It will record to an SD card or minimal amount of internal memory. Should come in the mail within the next few weeks. Stock was backordered where I bought it from. - Adi

    New Version of Tello Stock App in Play Store

    "Tello is an entry drug into the drone world." - Haha! I couldn't agree with you more! FPV had me hooked years ago when the cheap drones started to hit the US markets. I had a few Holy Stone / Eachine / EMax and various others. Found the Tello in November of 2020 to break into a more docile...

    Adding the Insta360 GO camera to the Tello

    I have been looking at a few micro cameras, usually for FPV quads, but they are getting smaller and lighter every day. I found the Insta360 GO and placed an order. The camera is 18.3g without the plastic case (with the case it is something like 43g, which is probably a little too heavy). I plan...

    Bored Tello owner, looking to go further.

    I have a semi flat roof and I purchased a number of "Hula Hoops" to place up there. I painted them bright Orange / Pink, and mounted them on a few bricks to hold them upright. It creates a really cool "track" for you to fly through in FPV and hones your flight skills. If you use the TelloFPV...

    My tello went to drone heaven.

    That may work. I know when I have used a BT game controller with my phone, the video is pretty choppy. Now I mostly fly with the onscreen controls. If you could adjust the rates, you may be able to minimize the interference. I'll be taking the Tello up today with the Tile on it. Ill try...

    My tello went to drone heaven.

    I mounted the Tile to the back of the battery packs with a piece of Velcro, and it seems to work okay. You are correct that it can interfere with the BT signal, but I have only really noticed it with BT on my phone Switched ON and I was actively looking for the Tello using the Tile app. I'll...

    My tello went to drone heaven.

    I'll second the Tile. It isn't GPS but utilizes Bluetooth or other Tile users' Bluetooth to locate the chip. Pretty cool tech and works fine for this. If you are in a rural area without interference, Bluetooth can go quite a ways.

    Loss of tilt control - wind? Problem with drone?

    Hi, I run into this on occasion when the following are present: 1. Flying over an open field, i.e. grass, can throw the Visual Positioning System off. This is because to the Tello, it all looks the same. You will get this over trees, grass, and especially water. Don't fly over water! I have...

    My tello went to drone heaven.

    Similar story here! Allow me to share. When I bought the Tello, I thought "Hey, I fly FPV quads, what could be so hard about this!" and was I wrong! The main difference between FPV and camera drones for me is the automation in flight. Things like the auto stabilization, various limits on...

    Greetings from California!

    Hello! California, USA here. I have been in the FPV side of the drone hobby for a few years and I am starting to venture into camera drones! I figured the Tello would be an easy place to start and then grow from there. (I am getting used to camera drones and how they are mostly automated in...
