    Live feed not working for camers

    I had the exact save results using the OEM Tello app on my Note 9. I believe it is an issue with how Samsung interprets the photo graphics from the app. Firmware updates, power cycle and clearing memory had no effect. However, I switched to the new TelloFPV app and had no problems.

    TelloFPV - The app for Tello FPV, Photo, Video

    Excellent app!! Hands down better than the original app. Plus, I'm teaching my Dad to fly Drones and this app (from our family library!!) enabled him to easily grasp controlling the drone with joysticks. Well done!

    system overheating on landing

    Hey Aussie, I was just about to post about that very issue because I picked up a fourth battery today. Are you saying that you get four full duty cycles, then the Tello overheats? Or does it overheat in the middle of the fourth duty cycle? Thanks for sharing!

    New app: TelloFPV for Android

    Hey Brick, for that same reason, I Velcro'd flashing LED lights to the top and bottom of the Tello, greatly enhancing my ability to see the drone at a distance. Vision fails me, but I can see flashing lights!

    Xiaomi Repeater

    I had some similar issues and found great improvement by keeping the repeater off the ground and in my jacket's upper pocket. I can't explain why it's better. I just read it somewhere here on the forum.

    Tello vs. Spark

    BTW, @malta1 had a good point. Perhaps we need a separate thread to discuss the registration issues/requirements...

    Tello vs. Spark

    From the FAA website: ***************** Do I need permission from the FAA to fly a UAS for recreation or as a hobby? There are two ways for recreational or hobby UAS fliers to operate in the National Airspace System in accordance with the law and/or FAA regulations. Each of the two options has...

    How do i pull the battery out of the tello drone?

    Simple answer: Pull it straight out. It should snap out with the same (light) force as it needed going on. Though your comment has me worried that you inserted the battery upside down. Is that the case?

    Security Protocol

    The "internet connection" warning appears because your device is attempting to connect to some web-based service, which will fail (of course) because you are connected to the Tello. I get the same warning and it is not the problem. The Tello may indeed be timing out because it gets too hot if...

    Tello vs. Spark

    It is, indeed. I bought the Tello to develop some basic drone skills before making a serious purchase. From the comments here, it seems that the Spark is a reasonable next step up, with increased distance and power. My main concern is being able to successfully navigate by using the drone...

    Tello vs. Spark

    I got the waiver to fly within five miles. I already registered with FAA and have my registration number on the drone with a small label.

    WiFi Repeater Advice

    I've had significant success with the repeater. Here's a video on YouTube of someone demonstrating the improvement over a football pitch:

    Tello vs. Spark

    In my case, I'm extremely close/occasionally under the flight path for BWI, and just barely inside the 5 mile perimeter. Thus, I filed for the registration with FAA. The (very helpful!) FAA fellow tried to talk me out of it and almost had me convinced until we couldn't find a contact number to...
