Tello - Connecting a servo

[bugzapper]

Hello!

I searched the forum but could not find what I was looking for.

Is it possible to hook up the Tello to an Arduino or Raspberry Pi Pico so other electronics can be controlled?

Let's say I want to move a servo when something happens within the drone code.

Thanks,
Dennis

Hi Dennis
It is possible to use Open CV in the Raspberry pi to control a servo based on the movement of the Tello
For example the servo can rotate based on a relative movement of the Tello
Or if you use the Tello Talent you can look at the light pattern and decide on the movement of the servo

Hi,

Thank you for answering!

How do I make the physical connection to a Raspberry from the Tello? (Ryze Tello)

I am not sure this will help. The extension kit for the Tello Talent is made for that. Not much information available on how to use it. There isa manual on how to connect it to the Arduino, but it is in Chinese.. You can translate it with Google translator. Still hard to understand. There is one good video on Youtube on how to connect to an infrared device. have not seen these in awhile as we gave up waiting for more information. Good luck.

You can connect to the Tello by wifi from a Raspberry Pi
Here is a link to an example

GitHub - dji-sdk/Tello-Python: This is a collection of python modules that interact with the Ryze Tello drone.

There are also some excellent YouTube videos by Murtaza Hassan for using Open CV in Raspberry pi on video feed from Tello
