New app: TelloFPV for Android
- Thread starter volate!lo
- Start date
I have the Flypad and a GamsirG3s. If you are used to a RC Controller, you will like the Flypad, the sticks are like the sticks on the RC Controller. They are nice and smooth, and linear. The only problem with the Flypad is it will not do OTG, you must use Bluetooth and that cause's video problems if you do not use a WIFI Extender. I hope to get my WIFI Extender this weekend.
You will love it! Makes a big difference in video and distance. I am not used to RC at all but I prefer full linear most of the time.I just need to try it.
will you tell me how to get the T1 into otg mode. I have read till my head hurts and for some reason can't sort it out.
@niteman14
To connect via OTG with this T1s, i don't have to do anything except plug it in with an OTG cable... then I can see the power come on and it just works... same with the other controller I tried OTG. I think a T1 should work the same?

I always fly with my Gamesir T1 wired USB OTG. It works great but you must configure it this way:
Gamesir T1 controller sleep mode (SOLVED)
I hope it helps

The main ingredients are fairy dust and toad's spit
Seriously: Tello has a downward facing camera and calculates relative position data. TelloFPV uses this to get back home. The original app uses this information, too, but only to display distance from home.

Price is around 4,20 Euro + applicable tax, or the equivalent in your currency.
Try the free demo version first to see if it works. If it works, leave a 5 star review! If it doesn't drop me a line.
I'm still waiting for comments from users experiencing app crashes. I know there is a limited number of users experiencing random crashes when exiting the app, seem to be restricted to recent Samsung devices.
One user reported an inflight crash, which is something I haven't experienced since the fist days of developing TelloFPV. Still waiting for his detailed feed back, so hopefully we can iron this out.
Hi, i haven't developped for 15 years now and it was mostly with Visual Basic
I presume that for controller mapping, you ask to user to move stick (yaw for exemple) and then you do something like getMotionEvent.AXIS_X - AXIS_Y - AXIS_Z - AXIS_RZ to know what axis value is superior to 0,7 (or 0,8). And it is with the result you know what axis is associated to the yaw ? If yes, would be so difficult to add getMotionEvent.AXIS_RX-AXIS_RY ?
You are a great developper so i imagine it would be not so easy else you would do it before..i am just curious about the way it is developped

There is a bit more this problem than just that. Other controllers use these axis names to report the buttons L2/R2 so I need to figure out a way to treat some sticks as sticks and others as buttons. Thats not an isolated change but affects a couple of areas. Too much to do on the fly without risking to break something else.
I will look into it but no promises until I know it works without compromising anything else.
First priority right now is to fix this nasty bug that affects a set of recent Samsung smartphones. Only happens upon closing TelloFpv but still not acceptable.
hey mate i know you said you didnt want to make this an ios app but just so you know there are services that compile apks to native ios apps around without you having to do all the leg work. One i found after a quick google search however i dont know how good it is: MechDome - Home
Hey guys
Sorry to bug you, But i just want to post an update on the demensions of that box you asked for. I made a mistake of just copying and pasting the demensions from the walmart website....And needless to say that they had it wrong of course..LOL
Here is the real size of that box.
The case is 14" x 8.5" x 3"
Sorry for the mixup
Hi TelloPilot2019,
No worries!
I already checked up here in Portugal in stores similars to Walmart. But I decided for a Tello Shoulder Storage Case like the picture I send. On eBay, it is about the same price as your box and for me is OK.
Thank you very much for your attention.
All the best!
Hi xcrost,
But you can always keep the Swing!
Is is a very nice drone to fly and play with kids. I can only fly it outdoors without wind (zero knots wind). When these conditions are fulfilled, it gives me a great joy.
All the best!
It claims it can do this magic on a compiled APK. Bold claim but to me not even worth a try.
May work OK for simple input / ouput forms but any app controlling a drone contains a fair bit of low level coding (streams, video encoding/decoding, controllers, bluetooth, networking) that these folks would never get even remotely right. Would be too easy
.
it would be very useful, to have an acoustic signal when the battery goes down to the minimum value set.
thanks again for this fantastic app.?
