    Tello motor too hot after flight

    Does anyone know what a reasonable temperature in degrees (F or Centigrade) are for a Tello or other motor ? Remote temperature sensors are cheap enough, and I would be interested to know what the "not to exceed limits" are. Bookworm

    Internal power feed 3.6v for external camera

    Quieter Tello

Didn't seem to affect the performance, except may be some increase in motor temperature, but it was noticeably quieter; flight time was about what I get (well under 13 mins with prop...

    Interesting. And does the antenna extension you have fitted help at all ?

    Looks as if you've changed the camera lens as well ? Bookworm

    Collective Pitch Quadcopter

    This is an (very ?)old video of an amazing & beautifully designed & built machine, but doesn't, to me, seem too relevant to Tellos ? Bookworm

    I have had 3 Tellos to date - 1 returned with defective video, 1 current, and 1 purchased for a relation. All flew fine, but 2 out of 3 would only record video in B & White with occasional purple & green additions. This happened with two different Samsung Note 3 or 4 phones, so it doesn't appear...
