Think the mirror solution as discussed on another thread maybe has more potential

Tello Mirror Clip by Works-Of-Claye

This simple lightweight clip allows you to attach a mirror pane to the front of the Tello to give you a view looking straight(ish) down.I'm trying to make the mirror as small as possible but may need to make it a little bigger as I can still see edges in these sample shots.Because it's so small...

Blurry slightly out of focus image but I can just about make out it’s “401815” .
Curious what are you going to do with the numbers?

Hi @helium,
Great work, this post is very useful to me and wish I found it earlier! Love your use of a paper clip so the camera can be easily angled to whatever position you want between flights as needed.

Would love to see some recorded video from this setup to get an idea how the Tello on-board image stabilisation handles the camera facing downwards.

Thanks for sharing!
