    Good morning from Hawai’i Tello video

    Thank you, the world is a vast playground and we have 9 out of 13 climate zones out here in hawaii including snow. I obviously need a lot of practice both flying and editing but I practice as much as possible. The editing software that I used for that video is the DJI go app. I have inspire 1s...

    Unusual motor problems

    Sometimes software updates mess things up. Try to redownload the software & force it. I just recently had a bunch of trouble with two tellos. It could be the controller mechanism if you’re using a game controller or your control app might be having issues. Let me know how it works out. Aloha

    Fumble and retrieval

    Good job. I think I would have just tried to shake the tree. It’s worked (embarrassingly) a few times. Those little guys are tough.

    Stealthy and Improvised Urban Flights

    Nice job man! Might be worth getting another Tello for retrieval haha. I did. Then I got two inspires. Be careful, they’re addictive.

    Tello in distress SOS

    That’s rad and thank you for the responses. Personally, I prefer to just buy stuff that works so I will be sending this battery back but that is grey info for the future. I do most of my own repairs. I’m just about to change an arm on my inspire.

    Tello in distress SOS

    I received a bad battery that won’t be charged in a multi battery charger so I decided to try to plug the Tello in with the battery in place. As it turns out, the blue light blinks SOS for the bad battery but good batteries are short continuous blinks.

    Hello from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Aloha e komo mai as we say out here in Hawai’i. I hope you catch the bug like I did. I loved my first tello so much that I ended up getting a DJI Inspire and my part 107 and then I got another Tello. And I just got a second Inspire.... I need help....haha below is the first Tello pic I took...

    Updated firmware and now 2 tellos won’t take off...?

    I upgraded the firmware and had to calibrate the IMU on both birds but now they won’t take off. They take a long time to connect WiFi to my phone and won’t take off. The LED sequence seems normal but takes longer.

    Updated firmware and now 2 tellos won’t take off...?

    Anyone else had this happen?

    Won't take off flips over and propellers on correctly

    A hair could be wrapped around a motor. Take a close look

    Tello, batteries and Travel by air

    I bought a limo fireproof bag to travel with for about $12 on Amazon but you can get smaller and cheaper ones for a Tello. I had to get a larger one for my inspire batteries also. Apparently TSA really appreciates it. Batteries are carry on only.

    I would be interested in creating content for this community. I am a writer on a few other platforms. Please let me know more detail about it and I would love to win a drone! . I’ve had a few toy quadcopters and my passion for this seems to be on fire. I’m sure you know the feeling of thinking...

    Telloha from Hawai’i!

    This little bird is so much fun and easy to fly. And it brought me to you guys. I have a few other toy drones but should receive my Inspire1v2 any day now. I’ll see you up there....
