Attaching the Databot to Tello Talent Drone

I recently started playing with the Databot, along with the Tello Talent drone. I the videos shown on the Databot site, they have show the Databot attached to a Tello EDU drone with a clip that attached to the top of the drone. You can see it here: databot™ - Video Gallery - Real Data, Real Science, Real Fun!

The Tello Talent, however has “Lego-ish” pegs on the top of the drone for the LED pack. So I raided my son’s Legos and found a 2x3 brick and some small flat plates to fit on top. I opted to use repositionable Glue Dots sheets to attach the Databot to the Lego bricks. Velcro was to loose, causing the drone to fly erratically.

Thank you Dennis! I enjoyed putting it together. I know there are 3d printed clips that can be used. But I just couldn’t resist a little DIY opportunity!

Thanks for sharing this Mark! If anyone is interested in the 3D printing options, check out the link below.
