Today i took my tello outside around the building for a little fun using the new prop-guard ordered from aliexpress.
All good for a while took some nice pictures.
But suddenly at 30m altitude a wind gusts took the tello away, put it in fast mode but nothing. Tello was keept drift away. I run foward after it but my repeater fall of my pants and he shuts off. Put it back in going for the tello but no wifi signal from the drone. Tello was hovering over a nearby building. The building had around 5 floors height and had a fence around it. I was going around it to try to get some signal from my tello but in vain. Looked up nothing i didn t knew if the drone was over this building or driftet over another one, finaly a car enters the complex and i aproach the building, seen my tello on the wifi but only one bar signal. Opened the app and the was overheating and in 2 seconds lost it, he turned off because of the heating, but in that 2 seconds i saw where it was, he landed on top of the building. My big save was that the building was opened and they had a ladder to get in the attic. All good got on top of the building and found my tello sitting there. Is good to know i didn t slip from the top of the building.
The moral to this story: don’t use these kind of prop-guards when is even slow wind outside (i flew my tello with original prop-guard in bigger winds and it was very stable)
Some pictures about the tello journey.
