Tello EDU and Speed Support #100

Hi!

Thanks for this awesome lib. I have a couple of questions:

  1. Does this library work with the Edu version?
  2. Does this library have extra supported features for the Edu version? (The official SDK does in some ways)
  3. I am considering whether to buy Tello vs Tello Edu for a project. In this project high speed is quite important. However from reading at the forums: https://tellopilots.com/threads/entering-sport-mode-on-api.2465/ (scroll to last comment) it seems that the official SDK throttles the speed after 5 secs. Does this happen with this low level lib too or is it part of the newer firmware? Does it only happen for Edu or the regular version too?

Thanks a lot!

@reachtarunhere - did you ever find a solution to this? I just got a Tello and was quite disappointed when I just ran into this throttling issue which SUCKS.


@jordy-van-appeven - Do you happen to have perspective here given you implemented fast mode a while back?

@MattGraz It has been a while working with this project, but from what I can recall there was no such thing of "throttling flight speed". The only constraint was a minimum altitude above 1.5 meters to enable "fast-mode", as I believe is mentioned in the code.
