More examples

In the examples directory there are some code examples. Comments in the examples are mostly in both english and chinese.

Notes

  • If you are using the streamon command and the response is Unknown command means you have to update the Tello firmware. That can be done through the Tello app.
  • Mission pad detection and navigation is only supported by the Tello EDU.
  • Bright environment is necessary for successful use of mission pads.
  • Connecting to an existing wifi network is only supported by the Tello EDU.
  • When connected to an existing wifi network video streaming is not available (TODO: needs confirmation with the new SDK3 port commands)
