Say “Hello” to Tello for only $99
A little “toy” drone with advanced tech features from industry giants DJI & Intel
Costing only $99 and with a body that is approximately the size of a smartwatch, Tello looks like a toy drone. And it is. But it aims to transform what we think of as a "toy”. Created by Chinese startup Ryze Tech, the Tello drone incorporates advanced technology from DJI & Intel, enabling it to takeoff from your palm with ease, get the shot, and land back safely and quickly. Notable features include:
5mp stills/720p video camera
360° DJI suite of sensors
Intel vision processing unit
Programmable via Scratch SDK
13 minute flight time with low battery detection
Usually it’s wise to stay away from toy drones, but with all the tech and features Tello packs for for only $99 it seems like an easy purchase for any drone enthusiast out there. It’s available for pre-order now and should start shipping after March.
