Thanks Ed for TELLOing us about this lil' bugger. such a cute little guy (the drone, not you..no offense).

[@abdullah-al-mamun1192]

so what is the price of it now? And is it available right now?

[@mikeziegler7008]

This is my 1st drone. I am 59 years old and without tech skills. But even I can fly this drone! I'm not thrilled with the android app because it's easy to move off of the controls without knowing... so I have to look down at my phone quite a lot. The good news is that the drone hovers while I recover. I used a red Sharpie to mark the "nose" of the drone. It helps me to see where the front is. I had 2 propellers come off after a crash on the first day. It didn't fly at all after that so I shelved it. I finally got around to chatting with tech support and found out that the props are not all the same. I had mixed them up when I re-installed. Back in business now!

[@nathannicholson1111]

Awesome Mike! So cool to hear you are enjoying tech

[@clmfilms8103]

Once you get things figured out with this one you should upgrade to something like the mavic air 2s, with 12km range, GPS, obstacle avoidance, 5.4k camera, 31 minute flight time etc.

[@dazzahaywood7121]

Yeah I had the same problem but found out the propellers need to be matched up now it flys brilliant iam not far off your age. 😂 Good ain't they now I've moved on to the mavic there unbelievable. Brilliant

[@jamier7073]

I am almost 57 and just bought the Gamesir Controller for DJI Tello and it makes a HUGE difference in the controlling and smoothness of flying. Definitely recommend it. I am not very well coordinated but within 5 minutes I had my drone flying under my covered verandah and through the railings.

[@kareemabnormal5823]

Based.

[@ssryle]

I bought it yesterday and it's a tough little drone, I crashed it twice myself first flight and it got wet from the sprinklers, quick dry off and it was fine. It's a good first drone.

[@jimmythundarrsdrumcoverser492]

How is it possible to crash a Tello even once?

[@archie7225]

@James Darr hitting trees gets them good, they fall out of the air and the only damage I’ve had sustained is the battery fell out when I hit a bush due to some wind but popped it back in and it was fine.

[@jamier7073]

@@jimmythundarrsdrumcoverser492 Trees, hedges, curtains when flying indoors when it is too dark to stabilise. It is easy LOL

[@jamier7073]

Word of advice when flying inside, make sure it is bright enough else the drone starts drifting, usually towards curtains or fragile things as I found out. If it is too dark then it cannot use its optical stabilisers to position itself

[@TheKingTywinLannister]

Also it’s self generated wind will bounce back from floor and walls and push it into random direction cause it’s so light weight so be careful with that too.

[@jaypooler9765]

I just bought one today. Thanks for the tutorials and info. Watching all the way from Vanuatu

[@TheKnightsShield]

When you show the camera view on your phone with the digital thumbsticks, it gives a really good impression of just how the interface will look on different phones. I have an older model Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and the video looks great, with the interface relatively well spaced out.

[@annabelmgraham]

Best vid I've seen about this wee beastie - Thank you.

[@ilooovnoodles]

I have now just purchased this drone, the video answered all my questions and it was honest and showed that it is a perfect drone for those that know nothing about drones and don't have $700 laying around haha. Thanks for the review

[@naguttes]

Hello Ed, I know this is a very old review but I very much apreciated it. I was looking for a small affordable drone that was easy to manoeuver. Looking at your review makes me choose this Tello and I am not disappointed, I was able to make it fly very easily thanks to its beginner features like take off and landing. Nicolas

[@ntai_protagonist]

Is it good to fly under 6ms wind

[@MeAviation]

Hi, Now the drone costs 200 Dollars from other country’s, do you have a tip for geting the drone for a cheaper prise?

[@merlinthompson3509]

It's a nice first drone and I would say its a small step above a toy because it's easy to charge and something you can easily carry with you for a quick picture or video.

[@eepikki]

Just got it today and i havent really tested it too much but what i could test it was pretty neat

[@MuhammadKhan-yl7mt]

Excellent demo. You just speak the right amount of wording that’s amazingly good.

[@flyhi2773]

A decision to go to Norway for a holiday I think lead to my viewing Norway videos to think, wow, you'll not be getting up there, 2000ft high cliffs to take photos. I came across drone footage and thought that's the answer. Find the Mavic but I'm like do I really want to get a feel for drones with a mavic? Well, my answer to that is no. Figured buying a cheap drone first for less than $100, might just save me a lot of money so looked for reviews of cheap drones, subbed to you only a couple days a go and find your reviews to be among the best. That's it, I'm sold on buying this first, then the Mavic. This looks like it might remain handy anyway for tight shots, going under a bridge, through a forest, interior shots - places I wouldn't want to risk flying a Mavic but could afford to lose something like this without it really putting a downer on an otherwise good day. Minutes after viewing this, that was it, I went and ordered one so thanks for this, looks great.

[@DriveOnGuard]

I like coincidence people. You were guided to see it. :D

[@richardhanson2235]

Nice review Ed👍. Best thing about the Tello IMO is I don’t have to worry about FAA No Fly Zones or TFR’s, not that I’d fly it anywhere near maned aircraft. I thought range would be a letdown, but by the time it gets that far away, keeping within line of sight becomes becomes the limiting factor.

[@briced.hornback1062]

The Tello is my *favorite* starter drone. Highly recommended.

Very well presented and a great review too. Terrific drone to learn the basics skills of piloting. I crashed mine a dozen times and it stills keeps going. Get the extra batteries and the controller which I find was easier than using the phone.

[@x_m_1_t_x539]

I crashed this drone 1-2 times and none of the props broke, neither got scratched badly.Only a little line of scratch and the propeller just fell off when I crashed it into a tree. Second time I crashed it was when I got the drone, the wind blew it into a wall and again, the propeller just fell off and I just put it back on again.Really durable for just 99 USD!

[@ImaITman]

I got two of these from work as prizes. Never had a drone thought it'd be like a 20 dollar thing since it was a prize from work. Tried it out and thought it was amazing. This little thing is awesome, as a total newb you'd be hard pressed to crash it because it auto stabilizes so well.

How many miles can you go with these things? Im thinking of flying it from my house to a walmart across the street.

[@Kholaslittlespot1]

@@emorytraylor with the tello it's WiFi only so it's limited on distance, but you can buy a WiFi repeater which boosts it a lot. I think it's officially 100metres distance and 10metres altitude but I've seen people go 30metres upwards with the repeater and I've heard of a guy who flew one 650metres.

[@f.i.b3027]

I bought the tellow 2 weeks ago and it was not what I was expecting. The camera had a lot of hiccups during video so it’s filthy. The range does not go to 100m. More like 30m. When I get to 30m it cuts in and out and disconnects. There was no point of it if it won’t go far. So I returned and decided to put my money on the mavic mini 2 and I love it. It goes 10km which I don’t know if it’s true but I got 6000m and I was scared to push it more. So i let it return home and it worked great. The mini 2 is a way better choice at the price point.
