DJI Tello drone with 720P camera EZ Shots - 13 minutes flight time - 8D stunts - pre-order

The DJI Tello is a fantastic little drone, ideal for beginners or casual flyers. The build quality is impressive for its size, and the 720P camera delivers clear and vibrant shots, perfect for capturing fun moments. The EZ Shots feature makes it easy to create professional-looking short videos. The 13-minute flight time is decent for a drone in this price range, and it’s incredibly easy to control, even for first-timers. It’s also light and portable, making it great for travel. Overall, the Tello is a great introduction to drones, offering a blend of affordability, features, and fun. Highly recommended for anyone starting out!

Ok, so the first tello I ordered arrived in a clear plastic looking box, the battery and tools were missing, so had to send back. A replacement was quickly sent but this time in a different packaging I've not seen before, a nicer box, and incased in a cardboard folding packaging, much like when you get soft drinks from drive throughs. So the newer packaging along with the hard cardboard case thing is a massive plus for me. The drone itself is lovely and small, light, but heavy enough to feel valuable. It charges in about an hour and 20 minutes, and has been giving me about 12 minutes of flight time in very light winds. Ive only crashed it once outside into some long grass, but still works perfect. The app is great and easy to follow, though when recording video i'm noticing it recording, but holding on a single frame for a good portion of the exported video, not all the time, but just sometimes. Not very annoying as yet as i'm still practicing using it. Ive since purchased a wifi repeater, controller and case to go with this drone, so see how much extra precision I can get out of it. I have to mention the stability though, and just how impressive it really is. Ive had several cheaper drones in the past, that didn't have the ability of auto hover, this, is mind blowing to see. The power, especially visible inside when it blows all the paperwork everywhere when you take off is seriously impressive, and just feels like you getting not a cheap product, but a great product! Very very impressed with this. And I look forward to teaching my 7 year old to fly with it once I learn how to fl it myself! ;)

For some time now, I've wanted to own a DJI but I couldn't really justify spending around £400 if you go for their cheaper DJI Spark. Although Tello is supposedly not actually manufactured by DJI it is "powered" by DJI so I was sure that some of that DJI technology would be included in this drone and certainly for just under £100 it made the decision much easier. Here goes my initial impression: It’s definitely much smaller than I expected. I dare to say, I even thought it looked...."cheap". Somehow, I kept thinking about other cheap drones I've seen around that come in a cardboard box with a huge window to see the item without having to unbox it. Once it's out of the box its different. It feels very light but sturdy. The drone is pre-built, so all you have to do is install the battery, download the Tello App on your device and you're good to go.... unless ....well, unfortunately you have to charge the battery first. This almost ruined my pre-excitement - I was already planning my flight route. Anyhow...charging the battery it was. To do this, you need to install the battery, get a microUSB cable you might have lying around somewhere (yes, no cable is provided) and wait for about 1 hour to an hour and a quarter. Not too bad actually. I was fearing the worst and thought it would take much longer. OK then, 1 hour and a bit after the unboxing and with a full battery we are good to go. The App is very easy to install and it barely takes a few minutes to install the drone. Controls are also very straight forward. There's a short intro that I would recommend everyone to view with all the basic controls. Everything is within finger reach on your device screen (considering you're using a phone). The default settings worked quite well. I’m not a drone specialist but I didn’t feel like I had to tamper any of the initial settings. I guess that as I get more experience using the drone I will probably discover settings I feel more comfortable with. There is a bit of latency with the controls so just consider this when flying. The drone will not respond immediately so just be cautious at the beginning with how you fly. You’re more likely to crash until you get used to the slight response time between phone controls and drone. The camera on the drone is forward-facing and fixed, so you'll need to consider that when flying and taking pictures. The quality of photos is actually not bad. I think they go up to 5MP. Outdoor photos are fairly sharp and indoor photos are not as good but I guess it has something to do with the amount of ambient light. As for the video quality, it does look a bit grainy and I experienced quite a bit of frame skipping, but overall, I was quite happy with the result. It’s definitely not a drone that should be expected to take incredible pictures or videos – I guess that’s where the more expensive drones come in play. This is a fun toy drone with a decent camera and very easy to use and learn. The battery last around 15 minutes which isn't too bad considering that other more expensive drones will only be around the 25-minute mark. Considering it only takes around an hour to re-charge I guess it’s ok. Personally though, for £18 I will probably end up buying a second battery to enjoy a longer flight time – you’ll also need to consider the battery life on your device, so one way or the other you won’t be able to go on for ever. Final impressions: PROS • Small size, very lightweight • Very easy setup - Download app, connect to drone via wifi and of you go. • Drone comes with all 4 propellers installed and propeller guards. The propeller guards can be removed if desired, but keeping them on at the beginning allows you to play around and protect your drone against any accidents until you feel you have a good control of the drone. CONS • The battery it comes with was not charged – around 1h to 1.15h to fully charge • microUSB required to charge the battery not included • Max recommended flight height 10m • Video is grainy and has some frame skipping Overall, I was pleasantly surprised. It’s a decent quality drone for under £100. Controls are easy to learn and it’s a very enjoyable experience. Photos aren’t the best but it does the job. It’s a great, fun, small and quick drone with some decent DJI magic.

Great little drone that lives upto DJI reputation although it is made by Ryze but powered by DJI ,This is my first ever drone and very pleased with it so far.You can programme this drone to carry out instructions as per code if you know how to do it.Picture quality is great for the price ,video quality not upto the mark but still good enough for a first timer beginner who like to learn flying and exploring different modes.You can install other apps forexample TELLO FPV and TELLOME which are paid apps which can unlock its full potential.If you want to test the limits and take great shots ,try using Wifi extender ,in my case i use xiaomi miwifi but be extra careful this little drone is not made to fly in high winds,not even light winds ,it can drift away very easily due to its small form factor and weight.For flying higher than 10 meters ,big ground,field or area is recommended .Video sometimes get choppy at heights this is basically due to signal interference forexample nearby electrical boards,surrounding wifi,You can get best out of it in an open field where there is no electrical intereference,wifi extender does help alot if used properly kept at a small distance from phone and a little higher than ground level. Overall a very good little drone for the price offered ,Get extra batteries as you wouldnt want to run out of juice in the middle of fun flying ,a full charge offers roughly 10 mins of flight.I would fully recommend who is new to drone arena and get the taste how it feels like and decide whether it is your thing or not.

The Tello Drone performance is great! Can control it with my Android phone but even better is with the GameSir T1d controller. Found a nice set of steps online for either way.

The package was delivered promptly. The drone was in good working conditions. It was easy to fly it for a beginner. I would recommend this purchase for those who are interested.

Drób dotarł bez baterii, która miała być w zestawie. Prezent został rozpakowany w maju, stąd tak pozna opinia.

Nachdem ich einen Spielzeug - Miniheli ausprobiert hatte (bis zum unvermeidlichen Crash) borgte ich mir die "Spielzeugdrohne" meines Sohnes aus und stellte fest: Hey - macht Laune.... was gibt es den da so auf dem Markt?? Wichtig war mir ein Wechselakku um den Flugspass zu verlängern. Mit meinem Anspruch und meiner Preisvorstellung landete ich bei der Parrot Mambo FPV, aber im Package vordergründig erstmal zu teuer. Durch Zufall stiess ich auf die Tello und die von DJI lizensierte Technik klang irgendwie gut (und macht wahrscheinlich einen Grossteil des Preises aus). Also bestellt und zügig geliefert. Ausgepackt, geladen und mit dem iPhone gekoppelt. Firmware - Update problemlos. Und los. Ab nach Draußen. Fliegt. Die Ortsstabilität selbst bei leichtem Wind ist beeindruckend - solange genug Licht für das optische System da ist. Dämmerlichtflüge empfehlen sich nicht. Genug Platz und los, am besten im Modus "Schnell", und siehe da: das Fliegen ist simpel, intuitiv und macht wirklich Spass. Der Speed hat mich wirklich überrascht. Wenn man mal überfordert ist lässt man alles los und die Drohne steht wie angenagelt - in meinen Augen ein relevanter Sicherheitsaspekt. Die Flugzeit hat in etwa 10 Minuten erreicht, bei der Reichweite sollte man sich keinen Illusionen hingeben. In freier Natur ohne Störquellen würde ich mal optimistisch 30-40m angeben. Mehr macht bei der kleinen Drohne aber auch in meinen Augen kaum Sinn. Die programmierte Flugmodi funktionieren sehr gut, insbesondere "Throw and Go" beeindruckt. Warum offenbar Minidrohnen immer diese seltsamen Flips können müssen erschliesst sich mich nicht wirklich, aber -na gut- auch das kann die Tello in allen möglichen Varianten...Die Kamera macht akzeptable Fotos, die Videoqualität hängt deutlich vom Licht und vor Allem von der Bewegungsgeschwindigkeit der Drohne ab. FPV-Flug mit Highspeed macht nicht wirklich Sinn.... Die Qualität ist handfest! Bis hin zu den Standfüssen, die Ihren Namen auch verdienen erscheint alles durchdacht und gut umgesetzt. Aus meinen Augen (derzeit) ein Problem: Das Zubehör. Die Drohne ist offenbar so neu, dass zumindest in Europa bisher kaum etwas erhältlich ist. Das Wechselakku wird wohl in 4-6 Wochen eintrudeln, die Cases kommen alle direkt auch China (habe eine Tupperdose umfunktioniert...). Leider gibt er zur Zeit (hoffentlich noch) keine gescheiten Controller. Das über den DJI Store vertriebene Gamesir T1 ist zwar. vom Preis her akzeptabel, der Versand ist jedoch teurer als das Gerät ??!! - kommt wohl direkt aus China ??!! Ich hoffe, dass hier in absehbarer Zeit auch Controller verfügbar sind, da sie den Flugspass deutlich erhöhen sollten. Steuerung über die App funktioniert zwar, aber mehr Haptik wäre nett. Ein Wort noch zur App: Unter IOS wirkt sie durchdacht und funktioniert gut. Import von Fotos und Videos von der App ins Handy erfolgt problemlos. Einzig wünscht ich mir akustische Warnungen bei Z.b. Akkustand niedrig oder Erreichen der Reichweite, da ich beim Fliegen eher auf die Drohne als aufs Handy schaue. Bitte Bedenken: 20 Flugzeit (mit Wechselakku) = 20min Displayzeit, also Powerbank dabei haben! Alles in allem erfüllt die Tello meine Erwartungen vollständig zu einem, wie ich finde, akzeptablem Preis. Verarbeitung und Flugeigenschaften sind top. Ich denke, Vergleiche mit Modellen wie einer Breeze oder einer Spark sind unfair. Man sollte seine Ansprüche kommend von einer 29 Euro "Spielzeugdrohne" zugrunde legen und wird dann auch sicher nicht enttäuscht!! In jedem Fall macht die Tello Lust auf mehr.. ich spare jetzt auf eine DJI Spark........

Programme un peu dure à trouver
