The Ryze (DJI) Tello is an excellent drone. I’d argue that it is absolutely the best drone you can buy for less than $100. The Tello does so many things well. It has a stabilized HD camera. It has intelligent flight modes. It is incredibly stable. You’d be hard-pressed to find a better value. The Tello is a great drone for a beginner and makes an excellent gift. One of the great things about the Tello is that you can make it even better by adding accessories, apps and even coding it. We’ve done it all.
The Ryze Tello
Let’s start with a full review of the Tello. If you want to know why we like it so much this is the place to start. Read about it here.
Extending the Range of the Tello
One of the biggest limitations of the Tello is the limited range. We’ve solved that issue with the Xiaomi low-cost WiFi extender. We will walk you through the process. Learn how here.
Using a remote with the Tello
Flying your Tello with your phone works better than any other drone we’ve ever tested. However, there just is no substitute for flying with a real remote. Learn more about that here.
Programming the Tello
Not only is the Tello fun, but it can also be used as an educational tool. You can program the Tello and the TelloEdu to fly and perform tasks.
TelloEDU
There are a few different versions of the Tello. There is the Tello Iron Man edition as well as the TelloEDU. The Iron Man edition doesn’t add any new functionality, but the EDU version does. You’ll gain the ability to use the new SDK 2.0 and some additional coding languages with the TelloEDU.
Add Active Track and Follow Me to the Tello
You can add Active Track and Follow me to your Tello with the Tellome app. This adds a bit of fun and functionality to the Tello. Typically this app costs $4.99 but the first two lucky readers can use the codes below and get it for free.
