Have you checked out branch "videofeed"?

 

[Gleba]

App just crash only 'master' branch successfully launch but without video

You need opencv and av.
On Windows, you can install prerequisites with

• pip install opencv-python
• pip install opencv-contrib-python
• pip install av

Then I installed FFmpeg from shared and dev packages
Unpacked them somewhere (like C:\ffmpeg), and then used set_env.cmd in repo to set environment variables according.
Now you can run KivyTello on your desktop.
