    I can report that the ESPTelloCLI program works for me with a generic ESP32 Dev Board. I did have to update my ESP board manager to the 2.0.3 release in the Arduino IDE. Thanks @devdrone

    New Tello Coming

    I did just receive a pair of Tello TT's delivered to the US from DJI's online store. I plan to use them in a university course I am teaching on the Internet of Things. Took about 2 weeks from order to delivery via DHL.

    New Tello Coming

    The new batch of announcements suggests that there will be new marketing focus areas for the TT version. Perhaps Amazon will even sell it eventually. I will buy one if they become available in the US.

    Tello Iron Man better in Low Light than normal Tello

    Yes, I will have to check flight in the standard artificial light that I use to test indoors. I am an educator and working indoors reliably is a necessity. I trust the serial number association more than the lens boundary.

    Tello Iron Man better in Low Light than normal Tello

    Interesting discussion. My Tello fleet: Regular Tellos: 0tqdf4bbxxxxxx 2018/4 0tqdf39bxxxxxx 2018/3 0tqdg58exxxxxx 2019/5 -- might be a "bad" one Edu Tellos: 0tqdfatexxxxxx 2018/10 0tqdg32exxxxxx 2019/3 I say might be bad because the camera lens boundary is flat like the bad ones as...

    Control Tello Using SMS Messaged - DJI Tello Experiments

    Twilio recommends using ngrok to expose a local server to the internet. You don't do that in the video -- you use another method. Do you know if ngrok works like the twilio demo shows it does for your Tello server?

    Node-RED Tello Example flows

    Looks like the github README's have spots where videos might be inserted. Are there plans to actually have videos there?

    Node-RED Tello Example flows

    You can decode it with ffplay or ffmpeg if these are installed. You would need to send the streamon command to the tello so the stream is enabled and then if you run something like: ffplay -probesize 32 -i udp://@:11111 -framerate 30 In a terminal the video stream is visible. Would be nice to...
