Get ready to build, fly and explore the amazing world of drones! This hands on class is perfect for young inventors and future pilots who want to learn how drones work-and have a blast doing it. Parents or adult partners are encouraged to stay for the class. Each student will assemble and pilot a drone as part of the hands-on curriculum. While drones are not taken home, the skills and experience gained will last a lifetime.
What to expect:
*Team up to build a discovery drone from a real kit - no prior
experience needed!
*Learn to fly safely with fun, easy to follow flight procedures and safety tips
*Take on cool challenges like drone delivery missions, lifting payloads and flying with precision.
*Get creative! Modify your drones design to boost speed, stability or style - just like real engineers.
