    New European regulation & Dji Tello..

    Soon it will be 2021 and the new regulations will be in force. Classification depends (among weight, speed,..) on the CE symbol. I find it hard to believe, but on my Tello EDU there is no CE symbol. I wonder how they can sell the product without a CE symbol. The manual (something nobody reads)...

    Taking Pictures with Tello Drone using Python 3

    Tried again, the two-script-version, this time on the Raspberry Pi 4. It worked! A lot better than on the PC under Windows. :) It worked even in flight! I was able to take an aerial photo. Before that, I had kind of a hard time to get cv2 working. Error message - google - install something -...

    Taking Pictures with Tello Drone using Python 3

    Now I had some time to look at it more closely. It is pretty cool and basically it fulfills everything I wrote under item 2. It should be possible to run it in one script, e.g. copying your code into tello3.py. And I have access to "frame" so I could do interesting things with opencv. I...

    Something happened to my account

    Thanks for answering. This is what happened to my old account. Yes, I can login. I just did it to see if the problem still exists. It exists, see attached screenshot. Whenever I try to post something, in whatever forum, when I try to reply to a post, I get that "insufficient privileges"...

    I built a version using the ppm signal from an old RC transmitter. The Arduino code is here. And a description in German here

    Newbie from Ireland requesting help

    Have you been successful, yet? As said before, light is very important. Electromagnetic disturbance (other wifi's, railway,..) may cause problems, too. I sometimes fly in a nearby park next to an underground station where Tello behaves a little crazy. Not too bad. Do you fly with the mobile...

    Connecting to Tello's wifi with an Arduino NanoESP aka "Pretzelboard"

    Hi everyone, has anybody tried to connect to Tello's wifi with an Arduino NanoESP aka "Pretzelboard"? It would be handy to put this processor into a controller like this one without needing a PC. Or put it on top of Tello and add a distance sensor (laser, ultrasonic,..) to do collision...

    building a USB controller from scrap material

    Well, I don't think that this is very interesting. Tello flies like with any other controller.

    Translating an h264 code to an image in python

    Thanks for this solution. I tried to build it for Windows, but failed. I am not familiar with cmake and got a lot of error messages. I'll try again on the Raspberry Pi.

    Something happened to my account

    I am not actually new to this forum, but something happened to my original account "martinpi" so I have not enough privileges to do anything like posting a thread or answering a thread. So I created a new account. Sorry for any confusion this might cause.

    Taking Pictures with Tello Drone using Python 3

    Thanks a lot this is a good start. I was looking for a solution to this question so I found this thread. However, there's two more things: The resolution (if "scaled down" by a factor of 1) is only 720 px, but Tello cab take still pictures with much better resolution I would like to...
