Python library for controlling DJI Tello Drones

tello_drone

Python 3 library for controlling DJI Tello Drones

This library provides a thin wrapper around the DJITelloPy library, which itself is a wrapper around the official DJI Tello Python SDK. The main advantage of this library is that it makes it simple to view and record video during execution.

To install dependencies:

pip install https://github.com/damiafuentes/DJITelloPy/archive/master.zip
pip install opencv-python

Example usage:

from tello import Drone

with Drone() as d:
    d.start_video('video.avi')
    d.takeoff()
    d.move_forward(50)
    d.rotate_clockwise(360)
    d.wait(5.0)
    d.land()
