# Tello

This package contains the Gobot driver for the Ryze Tello drone, sold by DJI.

For more information on this drone, go to: [https://www.ryzerobotics.com/tello](https://www.ryzerobotics.com/tello)

## How to Install

Please refer to the main [README.md](https://github.com/hybridgroup/gobot/blob/release/README.md)

## How to Use

Connect to the drone's Wi-Fi network from your computer. It will be named something like "TELLO-XXXXXX".

Once you are connected you can run the Gobot code on your computer to control the drone.

Here is a sample of how you initialize and use the driver:

```go
package main

import (
  "fmt"
  "time"

  "gobot.io/x/gobot/v2"
  "gobot.io/x/gobot/v2/platforms/dji/tello"
)

func main() {
  drone := tello.NewDriver("8888")

  work := func() {
    drone.TakeOff()

    gobot.After(5*time.Second, func() {
      drone.Land()
    })
  }

  robot := gobot.NewRobot("tello",
    []gobot.Connection{},
    []gobot.Device{drone},
    work,
  )

  if err := robot.Start(); err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
}
```

## Telo Edu driver

If you are planning to connect to the edu version of the tello, please use the `NewDriverWithIP` driver instead

```go
drone := tello.NewDriverWithIP("192.168.10.1", "8888")
```
