Controlling DJI Tello

To interact with the drone I use the djitellopy library.

This is a DJI Tello drone python interface using the official Tello SDK and Tello EDU SDK.

Simple example

from djitellopy import Tello

tello = Tello()

tello.connect()
tello.takeoff()

tello.move_left(100)
tello.rotate_counter_clockwise(90)
tello.move_forward(100)

tello.land()
