    Greetings from Czech

    My boys are adults and have other pursuits. My one son has a wife and daughter and just let us know yesterday that they are expecting another (Yeah!!!). My older son is a computer geek and so far, no girl has snapped him up yet. She would need to be able to talk geek to him to get him to notice...

    Read the forums, now I have to fly

    I was browsing the forums (Yuneec Pilots, Yuneec-Forum), just trying to pass the time. I came to the Tello forum and bang, now I want to fly. All right, get out the case, charge my 3 batteries, bring out the Tello. Ah…. that's what I needed. Wait, is that a sign of addiction?:eek: The only way...

    New Guy

    Welcome to the forum (Unofficially that is), and the world of the Tello. It is a great little UAV to learn on. If you cannot find what you are looking for using the search function (magnifying glass on the top right), ask. There are many people on this forum who have much experience and are...

    new tello enthusiast

    I am in Southern Alberta up in Canada. Flat country without trees. We have rivers in the valleys, but, 70 miles to the west and a little south is Waterton-Glacier International park. Can't fly there but just north of it is available. I have an Yuneec Typhoon H and a Q500 4K. I just ordered a...

    Little Snow Slide with Grandpa

    Love it. Isn't spending time with your grandchildren the best thing ever..... followed by drones, of course. Mix the two, wow.

    new tello enthusiast

    I use the free Offical App, but many people like TelloFPV. It is available on Android. Careful, there is no cure for this bug and it likes to multiply. I have 7 UAV's now.

    Face Recognition during flying

    If my Tello saw my face it would say "OK, who sold me to the old guy?" Sorry, can't help with programming. I haven't programmed anything since Basic in 1994.

    I have a Tello, but looking for something more. Would you buy a Q500 from eBay?

    I have never used a Chromebook. I have been a computer tech since 1994. Kind of went with Microsoft as I developed a hate for Apple II in college. This is the first computer we learned to work on and program.. I know they have come a long way, I have an Ipad 1 and an Ipod 4th and 7th gen. But...

    I have a Tello, but looking for something more. Would you buy a Q500 from eBay?

    I also would not use my Tello far from my house (well, it's winter here in Alberta...so.. only in the house!) The Tello is a great little UAV with a decent camera but it does have it's limitations. Now, for $100 I love it. It is fun and stable in the house. The 4K cannot be used in the house...

    I have a Tello, but looking for something more. Would you buy a Q500 from eBay?

    Yes, that is the one I would purchase. I bought mine 3 years ago at Best Buyfor $1100 Canadian and have love it since. I have added a Typhoon H as well. I think you will love the Q500. It's a really stable fun bird to fly. It is slower than a Phantom but more stable.

    Hello from Fort Lupton, Colorado, USA

    In my post "Messing with my cat", I posted how my cats hate my Tello. My dogs just look at it and leave the room. The cats will, if approached take down a Tello. Fortunately the Tello is a tough little bird.;)

    I have a Tello, but looking for something more. Would you buy a Q500 from eBay?

    The Q500 is a very stable camera platform. If you get one off eBay make certain that the picture included is actually of the UAV. There are different models available, but the 2K Is not one of them. There is a q500G (Gimbal for gopro), the Q500+ (White body and controller, 1080P CG02 camera) and...

    Do your tellos rotate to one side consistently during hover indoor?

    Not mine. But it does require bright light to hold position. Too dim and it just lands itself too.
