Did You Know? The Association For Unmanned Vehicle Systems International, projected more than 100,000 new jobs in unmanned aircraft by 2025.

With this kit, students will gain valuable experience in piloting small aerial vehicles. Students will use a simple UAV(Unmanned Vehicle System) to learn important vocabulary surrounding the use of personal drones. Each student will be able to pilot the drone and act as the Visual Observer to develop good habits for safe flying. Each module in this unit is designed to progressively build on the previous, challenging students to increase knowledge and experience from piloting missions and challenges. At the end of the kit, students will be able to verbalize important basic features of drones as well as vocabulary of movement in space. Students will gain physical, hands-on experience piloting and spotting for drone missions.
