DJI Ryze Tech Tello: The Ultimate Entry-Level Drone

Discover how DJI Ryze Tech Tello becomes the ultimate entry-level drone! Is it because of the features? Or is it because of its durability and premium quality?

This drone review will feature its camera quality, structure, design, flight performance, pros & cons, and its usage.

We aim to provide all product information to help you decide if it perfectly suits your preferences.

Quick Glance

DJI Ryze Tech Tello is one of the best beginner drones as well as one of best drones for kids in the market right now.

It has easy-to-use controls and user-friendly features which certainly make it perfect for young pilots or beginners.

Despite its lower quality camera and small size, it catches up with its uniques and special features like Bounce Mode, Throw & Go and programmable app supported by Scratch (a visual programming language developed by MIT).

Moreover, Tello’s structure and flight performance are quite impressive; its very durable coupled with very safe and stunning quick moves and stunts.

Structure and Design

The DJI Ryze Tech Tello is a quadcopter drone with a white, simple, durable design with dimensions of 6″L x 5″ W x 4″H inches.

This drone has a plastic body but don’t let it frustrate you because this makes the drone almost indestructible especially when you accidentally bump or crash it.

Additionally, Tello has specially designed quick-release propellers making take-offs and acceleration incredibly fast

Since it only weighs 80 grams, NO REGISTRATION IS NEEDED because it doesn’t surpass the FAA’s drone weight limit.

Camera and Video Quality

DJI Ryze Tech Tello drone has a decent camera that is excellent for close-range selfies. It does have a built-in electronic image stabilization feature that ensures quality selfie images.

The drone’s camera can produce 5MP still resolution(for photos) coupled with a video capture resolution of 720p and a video output resolution of 1280×720 Pixels.

Despite this noticeable low-quality camera range, I would still recommend this as a great and cheap starting point for those who want to practice aerial photography.

Flight Performance

This drone has high-quality cells that also recharge pretty quickly. They give a flight time of up to 13 minutes.

The flight range is 100 meters based on the manual but, as I have noted, it has a shorter controllable range (when there’s no proper connection) of only about 30-40 meters.

Additionally, it can manage to soar to a maximum altitude of 30 meters as long as it has a decent WiFi connection; it can also reach a maximum speed of 8m/s.

Moreover, it has a pair of downward-facing sensors and comes with propeller guards making it possible to fly indoors or in tight spaces.

However, the only downside in its flight performance is its wind sensitivity; you can only fly this drone in places where the winds are calm.

Lastly, you can control DJI Ryze Tech Tello through a remote control and the Tello App (where you can connect your phone to this drone and make controls even easier).

Usage of this Drone

Eventhough it has low camera quality, DJI Ryze Tech Tello still has durable structure, and impressive flight performance. Hence, it can be used in a variety of recreational activities.

This ranges from being an excellent selfie buddy, and entertainment (with its nimble moves and stunts) to hobby flying.

Moreover, this drone is excellent for young pilots and beginners since it has easy-to-use controls where even my 7-year-old nephew can manage to play around.
