Greetings from Portugal!
I love everything that flies except for rocks.
As I really enjoy making movies, I've tried a few drones but I've only had a chance with low-end drones.
I ventured to invest in a Tello and ... Woooow!
Amazing little drone that is small enough to carry and does not cause panic in the population - "oh my god, a malefic drone that will attack the passenger planes and shoot our private life!".
I am simply amazed by the stability and quality of the video of this little drone, even with light winds!
I used from the start with Xiaomi's wifi repeater 2 and with the phone always in flight mode.
Almost almost perfect, you could not ask for more with a drone of this price! A real change of game!
It would be perfect if you had a micro SD card slot in the drone itself.
The best of Tello:
-Quality / stabilization of the video
-Small size / practical for transport
-Flight time
- Position sensors / drone stability
-The under-informed population does not panic, as if they had seen Gozilla
- It is not necessary to carry a transmitter, it is well controlled by the mobile phone
- Record the movies directly on the phone that can soon be edited and cut with a very good app
The worst of Tello:
- Loss of frames in the video with the distance or interferences in the wifi
-Do not have micro SD card
-Short range
Rating: anyone who wants a good platform to film at a short range, easy to carry, not scary as the "end of the world in a shape of a drone", at a low price, the Tello is 9.5 out of 10!. Almost perfect!
Just love it!
Other experiences with drones:
-Furibee F36: the "must have" at a price of 8 dollars, we can even fly in the bathroom before leaving for work. Essential for friends to try without destroying the drones we like best. 9/10 because the battery lasts very little time.
-Hubsan H502E: cheap, GPS and RTH, reach more than 350 meters away more than 120 meters altitude. Camcorder with medium / low quality. 7/10 because it is very unstable with the wind and the filming is too shaky. Camera could have a bit more quality.
-Syma X8G: no electronic aids but with a very stable flight and can carry a gopro type camera. With a good flight experience you can get some good footage. Reach of more than 300 meters. 7/10 because of brushed motors and no electronic help.
-F450: I built a DIY with Arducopter controller, telemetry, GPS, connection to groundstation. Fabulous to learn a lot! Only need to mount Gimbal for the camera. Unfortunately, with the new laws that will take effect, you will have to pay mandatory insurance ... still do not know what I'm going to do with it
8/10 for the versatility of the arducopter controller but you need hard skills to build and configure. Not for every people.
