A Python library wrapping the official DJI Tello and Tello EDU SDKs, implementing all Tello commands including video streaming, state packet parsing, and multi-drone swarm control. It targets Python 3.6+ and ships with examples for photography, recording, keyboard/pygame control, and mission pad navigation.

Use cases

• control a DJI Tello drone from Python
• stream and record video from a Tello drone
• fly a swarm of multiple Tello drones
• take pictures with a Tello drone programmatically
• build a keyboard or pygame-based manual drone controller
• do mission pad detection and navigation with Tello EDU

When to choose

• you want to program a DJI Tello or Tello EDU drone in Python
• you need video streaming or state telemetry from a Tello
• you want to coordinate multiple Tellos as a swarm

When to avoid

• you use a drone other than the DJI Tello
• you need a GUI ground-control station rather than a Python API
• you require mission pad features on a non-EDU Tello
