Node-RED is a programming tool for wiring devices together. We use it in this workshop to control a Tello Drone and try to perform various tasks.
We use the Flows with Node-RED to interact with the Drone sending commands and receiving status.
The Tello Drone is controlled via UDP messages over a wifi connection with the Drone as the access Point. This allows the workshop to be run from a single computer.
