    Anyone find charging hubs or batteries?

    Back orders on batts and no multi or even single charging device yet?

    Tello Backyard FPV flight

    they are kind of strange. I keep my fingers in contact while moving and just slide them. feels better down low but cant be spooked by changes in ground patterns. Goes to ATTI mode in the mid 20 foot range. Fun flying through small spaces and getting used to immersive FPV without worrying...

    Tello Backyard FPV flight

    Better in good light, no wind and solid signal. No controller, head down FPV without goggles. With real joysticks and headset, this is a cool trainer in the right conditions. Better than a flight simulator!

    Good shake out flight... Outdoors.

    The photos in all fairness are a bit better. Here's an original shot in auto and the same shot with basic clean-up. Respectable I guess. Note: this was shot at the max height I could get.

    Controller - compatible controllers

    2 things. Controller gives you tactile controls over on-screen but does not increase range. You can buy the Hubsan repeater which increases your wi-fi range. For me its about range over the tactile toggles. Worth looking into

    Tello Arrived Today

    Calibrated the IMU and updated the firmware and I was good to go. Rock solid hover (need good light for it to work) nice progressive controls. Beginner mode needs to be switched off before you can flip or get high speed flight. I bought 3, gave one away and use the second battery from the...

    how does the Tello compare to the Hubsan X4

    Way better flying quad than the Husban. Feels more like a spark than the H107 (which used to be my go to intro quad. Hands down, I vote Tello as best entry level drone with similar functionality to the full on camera drone offerings of DJI. Flies like a champ! Flips, circles, bounce and...
