Notes

If you are using the streamon command and the response is Unknown command means you have to update the Tello firmware. That can be done through the Tello app.
Mission pad detection and navigation is only supported by the Tello EDU.
Bright environment is necessary for successful use of mission pads.
Connecting to an existing wifi network is only supported by the Tello EDU.
When connected to an existing wifi network video streaming is not available (TODO: needs confirmation with the new SDK3 port commands)
