DJI and Ryze Tech Launch New Tello Drone for $99
Jan. 11, 2018We can’t help but think of theDJI Spark, when looking at the Tello; it looks almost identical to DJI’s $499 drone. That being said, the main idea behind Tello was to create a simple drone that can be used by just about everyone.
Weighing around 80g with a body that is approximately the size of a smartwatch,it can be activated with a quick toss and return to land in the palm of your handsin a matter of seconds. The drone makes use of the Intel vision processing unit (VPU) and DJI’s flight stabilization technology to take steady shots.
At a price point of merely $99, Tello offers users13 minutes of flight time, which is just short of DJI Spark’s 18 minutes of flight time.There’s collision detection as well as VR headset compatibility.
You get a 720p camera on board that can be used to capture stills as well as a 360 video. The drone also comes with a pre-programmed one-touch flight function called“EZ Shot“, which lets you capture footage easily without spending a lot of time fiddling in the settings.
This isn’t an interview! Why am I being asked to tell you about myself? :P Well, if you really wanna know, I’m currently trending worldwide on #BeingMirchi. Buy me a beer if you like my work. Cheers!
