I´ve been doing some testing.

Indoor, good light.

In al cases, I made Tello do the 360 auto video.

It takes about 22 seconds the whole turn.

Phone: Samsung S7 Edge

1) Tello WiFi= 8 drop frames

2) same with Mi Wifi Repeater 2 = 8  drop frames

3) Tello WiFi & Airplane mode= 2 drop frames

4) Mi WiFi Repeater 2 & Airplane mode= 1 drop frame



So in my case, the key improvment was to set my phone in Airplane mode.

Then, the Mi WiFi repeater 2, provides some aditional improvment, but over all, better control distance.



Note: in good weather, and low wind, I intend to use this little marvel to inspect and take  detailed photos of high spots of houses I build.

How can you connect to Tello Wifi, when your phone is in airplane modus (which turns off all wireless connections) ?

I tried several videos to see what the cause was of the frame drops and I thought it was the miwifi repeater but it turned out to be the bluetooth controller interfering with the wifi signals. I fly using the phone controls and the videos are amazing now.

I took several videos in the same place with exact conditions and I discovered also that it was the bluetooth that I was using with the controller that was causing interference. I was able to further get almost no frame drops if i put my cell phone (that was in my pocket) to airplane mode and thus turning off its wifi and bluetooth because i was very close to the repeater I was using.

Good luck
