    Range extender only for USB?

    Exactly my setup. The extender is available in the DJI STORE for a out 15 bucks. On one side it says WiFi+, and ni embossed on the other. But to use it with an iPhone. You need a USB to Lightning adapter, which I believe does not exist. However the GameSir controller has a miniUSB port...

    Range extender only for USB?

    So the USB only provides power? It doesn’t communicate with tablet settings or app?

    Range extender only for USB?

    The DJI range extender has only a USB CONNECTOR. It can only be used on a computer. Is there an extender that works with a tablet or smart phone?

    Keeping track of your Tello if it flies away or is out of sight.

    Tello has no GPS. We are often out of business if Tello flies away or is not observable. There is a solution! Buy a TrakrBravo. It costs about ten bucks. It is intended to find lost keys, dogs, etc. it uses Bluetooth and is energized by a long life, replaceable watch battery. It...

    Fly away bad news

    About a week ago I reported that my Tello was caught by a gust on an otherwise calm day. I asked if the Tello would land if it lost the control signal. No one answere. YouTube did. No, it will not. It will continue u til the battery runs down, usually about a kilometer! So my Tello is...

    My Tello flew away! A gust on an otherwise dead calm day blew the still flying Tello behind me, where I could not see. WhenI realized what had happened, I directed immediate descent and took a picture. I believe that Tello should have landed itself when out of range, about 100 yards. So...

    My propeller is on but the drone isn't flying

    I agree. It is probably. The wrong prop for that location.

    I may break down and get a stand alone control box for my Tello. I do not like flying it from an iPhone. I. Just bought a prop guard for my Tello. You say, “It comes with prop guards.” But those cover the individual props, with gaps between the guards. You can still get your fingers in...

    My stalwarts are now the Tello and a MicroDrone 4. I have several Bangood knockoffs. Quite cheap and very capable, but I feel guilty buying Chinese knockoffs, even though they are almost exact duplicates. Any thoughts about Bangood?

    I have several small quad copters and a large Phantom 4. Things have changed a lot since I started. Initially there was no altitude hold, return to home, emergency landing, etc. The learning began with just trying to keep the aircraft in one place!
