Swarm with tello ?

[mike37510]

I would like to know, I understand that normally swarm flight is only possible with the Tello EDU, but I have never really understood the difference with the regular Tello.
Additionally, is it possible to program the regular Tello from a computer via the API and to switch Wi-Fi connections one by one for each drone? This would allow giving commands to each one in turn.
If not, how can one communicate with multiple drones using the regular Tello?
Thank you.

In that case you need multiple networks (e.g. multiple WiFi USB dongles).

Actually no. What you need is one network, more Tellos with different wifi names and as many setups, as many tellos. On all smartphones should be droneblocks installed and programmed the same. You just have to start them at the same time. They will swarm, but independently.

What you describe, is nothing else than multiple networks, but even worse, as my suggestion would at least allow to control all regular Tellos from one system.

It's doable using PyCharm and 1 wireless access point. I have a video that steps it through but I can't share video links on here.
