Remote Controller Game sir T1D Remote Controller Joystick for DJI Tello Drone

Fantastic item. Everything as described.Good plastic quality.Super fast delivery.

Works with my Dji Tello drone. Love it

As the product description states, this remote is only for use with the Ryze Tello drone. This does greatly enhance the use of the drone. I was worried about lag when using the remote, but to my surprise the drone reacts almost instantly to the remotes controls (same speed as if you are using the display on a phone or tablet). However, I have found that iOS devices seem to be more responsive than android devices when controlling the drone. It's not a big difference, but it is something worth noting.The remote physically fits well in the hand. Very similar to the feel of a PlayStation remote. The phone holder is retractable and tucks away nicely in the remote. It allows for a wide range of phone sizes, but I feel it works best with smaller phones as larger ones tend to throw off the balance of weight.The only complaint I have is when using the remote, the wifi range of the drone is reduced. I suspect it has something to do with the controllers Bluetooth frequency being the same as the drones wifi frequency. This can be remedied by using a portable wifi range extender.As far as connecting the remote to the phone, it's done through the Tello app. Don't try to connect it by any other means. Just turn on the remote, open the app on the phone, go to the settings menu, and select the controller. It's that easy.

For Android devices you will also need to have location enabled for the Tello app in Settings -> Apps & notifications -> search for the TELLO app -> Permissions -> select either "Allow all the time" or "Allow only while the app is in use". With Bluetooth and the GPS feature on your phone turned on you will then need to connect to the Tello drone as normal. First, turn on the drone and wait for it to complete its startup process. Second, connect to the drone via WiFi. Third, start the Tello app. Once the Tello app has successfully started and connected to the drone then power on the controller. In settings (the gear icon) select "Bluetooth Controller Settings" and "Gamesir-T1GCM" should appear and say "Disconnected". Tap on "Gamesir-T1GCM" and the controller should connect to your mobile device.If you consider the fact that the app needs your GPS to be turned on just to connect to the controller to be a security issue like I do, then I suggest using an old beater phone with no SIM card, if available.

Works fine

I didn’t buy this as a game controller by any means. So if you’re looking to buy this as a Bluetooth joystick you have been warned. I bought this specifically for my Tello drone. There are no buttons on the joystick so this is not a good controller for games. However, as a drone controller. This is perfect. Battery lasts a long while. It fits most phones in the holster and is very comfortable to hold while having a heavy phone in.

The controller I received was opened and used, not new. The two "tamper evident" stickers on the package had been hand cut and the box is slightly worn. The controller seems fairly new but was definitely used. 50% charge, will see if it works and update the review and/or return it.

I was really doubtful this would work with my Samsung, but it did flawlessly. You can completely control the Tello from your phone, but this controller is so much easier to manipulate and use to make the Tello do flips. I had to first connect to the Tello before then being able to connect to the controller, but once I did, flawless operation. And the thing is solidly built. I had really low expectations for the quality of the build, but it's right on par with the quality of the Tello -- totally solid. Once I connected it, my 9 old boy took off with it and hasn't yet looked back. This thing is so easy to operate. Combined with the super cool Tello, it really completely outshines all the neighborhood <$200 drones.
