Build, fly, and learn with precision technology. Elevate STEAM learning with DRONE 2.0, a comprehensive kit that invites students to assemble and fly their own high-tech aircraft. Through the process of building five experimental models, learners actively explore real-world principles of aerodynamics. Unlike standard toys, this unit is engineered for stability and education. It integrates advanced PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) control algorithms for smooth handling, alongside ToF (Time of Flight) sensors and an Optical Flow sensor. These technologies allow the drone to hover automatically and maintain its position indoors without GPS, making it incredibly easy for beginners to focus on piloting mechanics rather than fighting to keep the drone steady.
Safety-first design for the classroom. Designed with education in mind, the drone features a fully enclosed safety cage that completely shields the propellers. This thoughtful design ensures carefree flying in classrooms or living rooms, protecting both the surroundings and the pilot while students observe the physics of flight up close.
Coding and creative expansion. The learning potential expands significantly with advanced control and customization features. Users can fly in two exciting ways: mastering manual control with the remote or integrating technology by programming custom flight paths using a micro:bit. This dual functionality introduces vital coding concepts alongside mechanical engineering. To spark even more creativity, DRONE 2.0 is fully compatible with #1409 ROBOTICS WORKSHOP COMPATIBLE WITH micro:bit, enabling users to construct elaborate obstacle courses and unique scenes. Whether navigating a self-made maze or executing a coded flight pattern, this kit provides a dynamic platform for developing problem-solving skills and engineering creativity.
