    Fall Leaves in Ontario, Canada

    A quick video on good old Tello taking some great fall video shots - with the trusty tp-link AC750 acting as the wifi repeater

    WiFi Repeater advice

    Here is some footage in an incredibly wifi signal dense area. Yes, 720 resolution is not great - but more than ever - the 5Ghz connection is a must. There is definitely a reduction in video freeze and pixelation.

    I've added links to the details in the video as to where equipment can be bought - great idea! Thanks

    What I am curious about are multi band repeaters!

    Correct - that’s the connection used to take that video. I wish I knew about it way before ?

    WiFi Repeater advice

    When you use dual band repeater (like the tp-link AC750 or any other) - it uses one SSID for the 2.4 Ghz and (as an option) another SSID for the 5 Ghz. The 2.4 GHz one will be automatically connected to your Tello. But - you would use 5 Ghz SSID for the smartphone.

    WiFi Repeater advice

    Hi You have to use a dual band repeater. A dual band repeater will communicate at both 2.4 and 5 GHz. The Tello will communicate (natively) at 2.4 GHz but you’re smartphone (if it is newer) will communicate at 5Ghz. So the Tello will connect to the repeater at 2.4 while your phone will connect...

    350 meters range test. Little scary story and useful tips

    Welcome to my adventures when I do Range Tests - losing the Tello is always a risk. All I can hope for is not hit anything or anyone with it:

    Tello A/C mod?

    Nope - Fari - you are absolutely right. I got some knockoff propellers from AliEx and installed them. First thing the Tello does is....not launch. Errors appear on the flight app - something about too much vibration. Switched back to OEM props - and it launched perfectly.

    The best (portable) repeater we have found so far is the tp-link TL-WR902AC - dual band repeater. Range is about 150 meters - probably more. But more importantly - using the 5Ghz connection (from phone to Router) provides excellent video transfer - less pixelation and freezing:

    Try this for size (a lot more than 10 feet):

    Hang on - I didn't post the latest router here. Folks - 1000 FEET RANGE for the TELLO!!!

    300 metres or 1000 feet range - sure!

    But Folks - 1000 feet for the Tello?? That is crazy. I can't even see the thing beyond 75 feet. You can't hear it nor see it when it gets out about 50 to 75 feet. At 1000 feet - I thought I'd never find it. But there it was - just hovering in the air (once the wifi was disconnected). BTW - it...

    300 metres or 1000 feet range - sure!

    Yep - Volatello's App is the only way to go especially for telemetry like distance (the original Tello App I believe only has height). Plus - if things really go wrong - TelloFPV has Return to Home. Original has a help button that doesn't really offer any (help). Now...if Volatello only made it...
