Yet another quality review from everyone's favourite, Captain Drone!

You were doing great honest reviews in 2018 as well. You make me wanna buy just about everything you review.

Yet another good review, cheers.

Thanks so much for the review. I am thinking a buying the drone as a gift for someone and I needed to make an informed choice. I thoroughly enjoyed this video.

Great! This answered my question. It Isn't very good out of doors. Thanks for the brief, but complete evaluation of this small INDOOR quad.

Thanks for sharing the fun. Hope you are having a great day.✌️❤️🇺🇸

Love your reviews and videos. So practical and comprehensive! Keep it up!

Pretty late in the game of drones...I bought my Tello last month. I did one update since then. I flew my Tello outside last night in very low light condition and it was very stable and did not drift at all. I love this little fellow because it helps me learn how to fly and become better for me to fly my Mavic 2 Zoom! Thanks for the review. It helped me decide to buy it.

BEST technical review (needed the technical info)

I have the Tello and it is still amazing in 2021 for such a small drone. I can take it pretty much anywhere. If I could do an upgrade to the Tello it would definitely be the camera. If it could have a small gimbal camera. It would be absolutely awesome.

I just got one. I also ordered 2 extra batteries with a 3 bay charger so I can have up to 40 minutes airtime..i ordered gamesir joystick..just the phone holder with grips, also ordered the xiaomi range extender..controlled by a galaxy s9. It works really well for me entry level novice . It's so fun to fly .

Hi there, love your reviews. I just recently received my tello and also experienced a lot of frame skips. I did a test using a xiomi WiFi repeater connecting it to the tello and my phone to the repeater and in my opinion it improves a lot on the frame skips.

@CAPTAINDRONE798

6 жыл бұрын

Interesting option. This means then that the problem is in the WiFi connection (sending and receiving of data). I have found an 80% solution fix. It actually involves just running an IMU calibration. For some reason it tends to reduce the dropped frames (doesn't eliminate them, just reduces them).

Many thanks for that review. You have totally convinced me as a P3S flyer, that the Tello is no good for my needs....a small portable drone. I'll keep looking for an affordable second drone. I've had enough of drones that are overly fussy about what they will connect to, and of course that includes the Phantom3! Many Thanks.

Hey Captain drone can you do a review on the dji tello it's been 3 or 4 years since you did a review on that drone,and it has a boost combo version of it on sale right now,and I would like to see that drone again in your video.(using iPhone 8 plus and other 5g phones reduces the frame drop)

I bought one of these a few weeks ago and it's a great little drone. Something I'd like to add is that it seems to be very water resistant. I decided to try to get some pictures of a nearby waterfall since we had just gotten some heavy rain. The rain had slowed to a drizzle. I was using my galaxy s9 as the controller. As I was flying some water was dripping out of the trees and landed on my phone. As ya'll may know, when your phone gets wet it goes haywire with the touchscreen input. Long story short the decrease elevation control got stuck and it crashed into the creek at the base of the waterfall. I figured that it was toast and was about to walk away since I'd have to climb on some wet and slippery rocks to get to where it went down. I changed my mind since I didn't want to leave it the water to possibly pollute the stream if the battery were to rupture so I carefully climbed up to where I thought it was. I didn't see it so I watched the video I was recording to get an estimate of where it landed. I looked around and spotted it upside down in about a foot of turbulent water. I found a small tree branch and fished it out of the creek. To my surprise the led was flashing on the front. I took the battery out and climbed back down to a safe spot. I shook the water out and put the battery back in and started it up. It flew but the camera was soaked. After leaving it on the dashboard of my van with the defrost drying it out for a 45 minute drive I tried it again and it was working like a champ with good picture quality. It sat upside down under water for around 15 minutes and survived. This seems to be a tough little drone.

Thanks for the review. I seen the Tello at Bestbuy when it first came out. A week ago I seen it again and decided to buy it. I got the Tello boost package. It came with 3 batteries, charging hub to charge 3 batteries simultaneously. USB charge cord. 4 extra props. All for 160$ US. Then I purchased a nice case for it and also the Gamesir T1d controller. It's now a comment package. It dose fly amazing and is very stable. The video is quite well and takes good pics. Not as good as my Typhoon H. But for the money it is one good buy. I do recommend this. I'm also tying the programming capabilities it has with Drone blocks. Very fun. Thanks. Hope my review helps out to.

Would be great to know if others have the same problem: Sometimes it seems like image stabilization just doesn't work, the video shakes like crazy. Looking online it seems that when you take a picture and then go into video mode, stabilization gets disabled **shrug**

See this is your opinion on how the Tello operates. If it’s windy out you can use the Fast tab and it works quite well in the wind.

Nice video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice detail story, the new after market app fly solves the choppy vedio

This is still a good drone. Still selling strong now. I see people daily in tello Facebook groups buying them and joining. There's a new app out now with even more features and settings available, that makes it so much better still. Great first drones still, great for kids and in the UK we had rules change recently and can now fly small drones in gardens and many other new places so people who can't afford a mini are getting them as a second or back up small drone to fly all the new places we can. For the price and and size it can't be beat.

Great review

Tello Firmware V01.03.18.01 Released. Please Note If after updating the Tello Wi-fi changes to “Marvell Miceo AP" try as follows With the Tello off press and hold the power button for 5 seconds, after this the LED should now flash Red. Now you should be able to see Tello in your Wi-fi on your device, when you connect to the app you may see a red warning at bottom with a some codes, with the Tello still on press and hold the power button again for for 5 seconds, it then should reboot and connect normally to WiFi.

I love your review about Tello. Gives me 100% idea if I will buy this drone or not. Can you post the compatible phones / tablet for their tello? And do you have review for Bugs2 B2C like what you did a review for tello? I really appreciate your bugs 2 bc2 review because I'm torn to buy between tello and Bugs B2C

@CAPTAINDRONE798

6 жыл бұрын

Thanks! The list of compatible phones keeps changing. To have a current list it would be best to either download the TELLO APP onto your phone and then go to the help support section and chat with RYZE, they will send you the current list (you don't need to own the TELLO to do this). I currently only have the BUGS 3 mini for which I did a review. If the BUGS 2 B2C is an older drone, then I might not receive it to review, but I'll keep it in mind to check for it.

From all drone reviews I have seen this one sold me a product. I am going to buy this drone as for the weather We have a great weather in South Africa so no problems there.

It hard keeping a WiFi connection I have the Tello manual, I follow the step that the manual has you to follow. Still will not take off. I’m using the same app that you are using. What steps are you using?

What can you do via (scratch) programming? Are there any camera/lens mods such that you can shoot 45 deg video that's between the horizon and the ground? Any thoughts on other low cost drones.. Snaptain, Holy Stone F181W, Cheerwing , Haktoys ?

Never leave your battery in the drone, it will drain out, and store your battery at the first low voltage warning, thanks for uploading this

These days look into the extra $$$ for a "Tello 3" a.k.a. Robomaster TT, it runs on 5Ghz Wi-Fi and keeps the connection a lot better. The Tello and Tello EDU don't work well with a Bluetooth controller out of the box. For the Tello, which runs on 2.4Ghz Wi-Fi, the Bluetooth controller also runs on 2.4Ghz and will cause a lot of disconnects between the phone and Tello. You have to get a wifi repeater and power pack to keep the signal strong, when using Bluetooth. In theory you can plug a OTG cable between the T1s and the phone and avoid Bluetooth but the Tello app and Volatello don't seem to recognize it. I'm testing with a better cable next week, will be making a video about this setup.

Thank you for yet another thorough review. Any chance you can get a hold of the DJI dobby? It boasts of having a 15 minute battery with a 4k lens. I wonder how true that is or is it interpolated?

For the money and to me you need a controller for any drone to have any great precision and control.. There are many better options out there for instance the YUNEEC BREEZE with CONTROLLER is around the same price.. The yuneec breeze has GPS, much better video, pictures, and image stabilization. A controller that you can use also for your phone games.. comes with an extra battery.. it's own hardshell case, better sharing functions, much better for outdoor use, on board recording, 4K, 1080p, 720, etc.... ;)

Nice drone

The Tello is a great outdoor drone. The problem is that with the prop Guards on as you are using it the wind obviously has more to grab to and easily tosses it around. Also I have viewed many videos and everyone mentions they run hot and that it needs cooling. But no one noticed that it does have two built in cooling scoops.
