    Gamesir T1D spoiling video smoothness

    Atello works well with a cheap $9 PS3 controller via a USB cable. Just be sure the cable is a data cable and not just a charge cable which won't work.

    Do many of you have a Tello along with a larger drone?

    I fly Parrot Bebop 2s and an old DJI 450. The Parrots are great drones. They are an inexpensive way to have a drone that can fly autonomous way point routes as well as fpv. bought the Tello just for its fun factor.

    Tello batteries Storage Mode

    3.71/15% is just fine if you are using the pack often. Storage voltage is generally for long term non use. 3.97 is a bit high. If you fly Tello often the the 20% battery indication is just fine. Try cutting a 25 if it suits you better. A pack under 3.7 needs a charge and should never be left...

    Tello batteries Storage Mode

    If you look at the battery it indicates as best as my bad eyes could see max charge 4.35v(hi power lipo), nominal voltage 3.8. Mine was low enough to self land and read 3.78v. OK for storage. On my old DJI drone I can control the cut. I have it set for 2.75v I normally land around 3.5. The...

    Tello batteries Storage Mode

    Been flying lipos for years. They should rest around 3.8v per cell. Thing is many drones cut about that voltage. So as to leave the battery safe for storage. My Parrot drones do that 0% is around 3.8. Thing is there is more capacity left. The pack can be safely used to 3.5v and 3.0v without...

    Move Your Repeater

    Yep LOS. Guess theft might be an issue in some areas. Maybe disguise it in some way. Routers that can be used as a repeater are a good choice, many can run on the common power pack. I use an Ampex with 800mw output. This would far exceed the tellos ability but provide a strong signal closer in...

    Move Your Repeater

    You people using repeaters need to move them some distance from your take off position this will extend the range. If you install a free WiFi signal app on whatever device you can check the repeaters strength at a distance. I have been using repeaters for several years with Bebop drones. My...

    OTG Controller Disconnects After Exactly 1 Minute

    Which app are you using? I fly aTelloPilot using a Flypad via BT. I couldnt get it to link via otg. The Flypwd is a excellent controller as it was intended from the get go to fly with, not a game controller. i have a T1d which I dont like and w Ps3 which is ok. Stsy with the Flylad if at all...

    Sun-cell hack possible?

    You will never be able to have enough solar capacity to stay ahead of the battery draw and get it off the ground. Solar charging tello however is entirely possible and fairly easy to do. Not trying to be negative, its just a matter of phyics.

    Fast mode turn off glitch

    Its a function of the app. Mine is updated and calibrated and it still flys slow in fast mode when close to the ground. Climb up a few feet and it resume fast mode.

    Fast mode turn off glitch

    From my experience tello flys slow even in fast mode when close to surfaces. In fast if you fly close to the ground it will slow down if you climb back up a few feet it will resume fast.

    another Tello Pilot (Android App)

    Doesn't work with mine either. The app installs, finds the tello and the flypad in the settings but won't open the flight screen. The fire does work with aTello and the Ryze app. This app works perfectly with an LG G5.

    another Tello Pilot (Android App)

    With this app I recommend the Parrot Flypad. It's much smoother in stick inputs. The T1d is very quick/jumpy. you can see this on the stick trim mapping. The Ps3 is also very smooth. I got it to work once via otg. It won't work if there is a BT controller saved in the app. I can't figure out...

    Tello overheat on landing

    The drone always shuts down after landing. I randomly get the overheat warning during flying. I don't think it's accurate as the drone doesn't feel unusually warm. the drone will overheat when sitting while on for extended periods. I sit mine on a small fan when doing updates app settings etc.
