    New Batteries

    Its getting harder to find good Tello batteries these days. Many shops now sell batteries that are years old. I just stumbled over a post in a German forum linking a shop that seems sell really fresh batteries. The user posted a photo of his battery and it was produced Nov 2024 ...

    Hello from Jersey Shore!

    Parrot flypad uses a Bluetooth LE protocol similar to Gamesir and causes similar level of video interference. Better than ordinary bluetooth, worse than wired USB. Flypad does not work via USB (actually it does but only for a few seconds). It comes with a phone holder and has better ergonomics...

    Hello from Jersey Shore!

    Controllers are a minefield. For Android: Using the Ryze app you are locked into Gamesir T1D or T1S. No other gamepad works - unless you add mappers like Octopus. Gamesir T1D does not work via USB, only wireless via BT (Bluetooth LE that is). Gamesir T1S works via USB or Bluetooth LE. BTLE is...

    Hello from Jersey Shore!

    Fully agree! Gamesirs are known for exceptionally bad quality gimbals. The only reason to buy a Gamesir is to avoid the use of TelloFpv. Otherwise any console controller makes much more sense.

    Sniffing Tello drone status packets

    The binary packet you are referring to does not contain yaw orientation. It contains altitude, horizontal and vertical speed, and various timers, states, flight modes, etc If you want yaw info you need to tell tello to send log information and extract that info from the log sentence. If I...

    I just got a Tello

    Tello doesn't perform flips when moving fast, flying high, or when the battery is below 50% (or something like this)

    How to implement smooth path following without stopping at every waypoint?

    Just two ideas without much thought: 1) Calculate the time required to reach the next waypoint. Mark it "reached" and move towards the next if this time is below 0.5-1 second or so. You will no longer exactly reach the WP but only go near it, the result should be smooth but less accurate. To...

    New firmware, altitude limit.

    With the Ryze App you need to be connected to Tello in order to see & change altitude setting.

    The official end of the Tello

    You never know, maybe they will find a few more boxes in some corner of a warehouse. DJI has been out of stock multiple times over the last year, so this could be the end or just another suply chain hickup. For those in Germany urgently looking for one there is currently an unused, still...

    Tello's Getting Hard To Find. DJI Out Of Stock

    People looking for best low light capability should probably look for iron man editions on ebay and such. AFAIK all of these use the old style VPS camera system. Only issue is age of the battery, but I bought two old but sealed Iron Man last year and both still had 100% functional batteries...

    CONTROLLERS - PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU BUY!

    Thats a much better choice than most other controllers. These RC style controller focus on control precision (slow, precise moves of gimbals over a partial range) where playstation controller are more about longevity (millions of aggressive moves using the full range of the gimbals). The...
