Hello from Croatia with a photo of my setup

Hello!

Playing with Tello for the last two weeks, such a nice little drone, the SDK really makes it interesting to play with. Hopefully i'll get a build of the Tellometrik ready during next week and share it here.

Cheers!

Wow ! Your Tellometrik appear really nice !

 

[chmiki]

Thanks for the feedback!

I've released the tellometrik on github -> tellometrik/tellometrik

It is an nodejs/electron app with:

• PS4 Dualshock controller support for controlling Tello
• Telemetry data display
• Wifi and Dualshock autoconnect
• Three video streams modes supported (mplayer, ffmpeg, jmuxer)

I'll try to update the code as much as i can, any contributions are more than welcome!

I tested the app only on OsX, but it 'should' work on windows and linux too.

Cheers!

You did an amazing work !
...actually I don't have a dualshock controller but a Gamesir T1d only.
But I think that your interface it's great to control Tello directly form PC.

I suggest to add commands also from keyboard.
Could be great if it will be possible to read a commands list from an input file, with a sort of a pre-calculate "mission".

Once again, my best compliments !

Yes, keyboard controls and "mission files" are something that i will try to look into, i'll see if i can reuse some of the implementation for mission files already available at jsolderitsch/tello-nodejs and keyboard control from here: SovGVD/nodetello

Ideally i would like for tellometrik to

• support more advanced controls (height and speed limits, ev values, more detailed flight logs etc) that are not documented in the sdk.
• store flight logs in csv files locally
• record video and convert it to .mp4 files on demand
• support for more gamepads
• better telemetry data displays

But we'll see what the future holds

Hmm i just tested a ps4 controller here: HTML5 Gamepad Tester

it seems it is possible to connect dualshock without native npm modules, so it should support many more controllers - i'll look into this

@DinoBaldi If you get the time can you check out on the html5gamepad.com is the Gamesir T1d supported?

 

[DinoBaldi]

I think that the T1d version is for Tello only.
But keyboard input and especially missions from files will be the best additions !

@DinoBaldi Thank you for the feedback, much appreciated! I'll see what i can do in the upcoming days
