DRONE RACING & OBSTACLE COURSE CHALLENGE

Superhero campers will defend their homes as their fellow “villain” campers attack in their superhero missions. Campers will learn basic maneuvers before using their “Spidey-Senses” to conquer missions like Batman’s Drone-Mobile Escape, The Breakout of Iron Man and more. They’ll create a storyboard for their escape missions while others will attempt to outsmart them using a drone to locate and capture. Drone safety and social responsibility will be included in this program.

Campers will take home interactive workbooks and keepsakes.

Campers will enjoy a fast-paced, action-packed week in this camp designed for the novice and experienced drone enthusiasts. This week is filled with pure action as students enjoy one of the world’s fastest growing sports: drone obstacle racing. Campers will learn the basics of safe flight and the history behind drone racing. Campers will progress through skill challenges and learn how to perform exercises and maneuvers to become familiar with the drone’s speed and agility.

Flight squads will race themselves and the clock in friendly challenges. Students first maneuver the drone through creative obstacle courses before taking on the challenge of flying for speed. Participants will create, design and help build the obstacle course in preparation for the final activity and competition. All campers go home with interactive workbooks and plenty of Drobots Company keepsakes.
