Campers get to build and take home their own hand-size quadcopter while gaining practical aviation and robotics experience through real drone flight challenges.
In the Quadcopter Aerial Robotics camp, middle school campers delve into the exciting world of drone technology and applied engineering. Through hands-on scenarios and challenges, participants gain a strong introduction to aerial robotics. Campers will explore the science of flight, design, build, and test their own drones, and learn to fly them. Activities include carrying payloads and creating delivery systems, which teach fundamental engineering and aviation principles through real drone flight. The program emphasizes developing problem-solving skills and technical confidence. Campers will also operate and take home their own hand-size quadcopter at the end of the week.
The camp encourages an interest in STEM career fields by providing practical experience in aviation and interactive robotics. Students will engage in inquiry-based learning, fostering curiosity, critical thinking, and experimentation. The curriculum is designed to be challenging and engaging, allowing campers to experiment, problem-solve, and build scientific skills in a safe and positive learning environment.
A typical day includes specific camp activities in the morning and afternoon, with a mid-day break for lunch and outdoor play. Campers are greeted by staff and participate in all-camp science demonstrations.
This camp is best for middle schoolers who have a genuine interest in how things work, what things are made of, and are curious about drone technology, aviation, and robotics.
