Fun flying FPV around house

Chrislaf · Nov 29, 2024

I have been having fun flying my Tello in FPV mode using box goggles with iPhone inside and TelloFpv. It’s not the best connection even with a WiFi extender (Xiaomi) but it gives me a taste of fpv. The Tello wants to land itself frequently due to low light and my old batteries don’t last long.

Flying in the house is like a maze with the rudimentary control and trying to see if I can make it further than the previous time without crashing.

This is how I actually started to fly FPV years ago. I still have 2 Tellos and 4 working batteries. Sometimes I charge the batteries and fly them empty and recharge them to 50-60% storage, to preserve them as long as possible. Now I fly a Neo and a Avata 2 with Goggles 3 and FPV RC3. The controller connects to the FPV app easily, but I try to figure it out how I can connect goggles. I have 2. A dji G3 and a SkyZone Cobra analog. The dji has DLNA, so with a app can stream the screen or shall I buy a USB C - USB/HDMI converter and connect via HDMI to the SkyZone...? From next week I´m at home again, try to find a solution.
