My Project

We will be beginning an Advanced Drone Course. One of the skills the students will develop will be learning how to repair broken drones from our beginner drones course. Our new pilots tend to crash quite a bit so the wear and tear on the devices takes a toll on our classroom machines. This purchase will allow our programs to continue running, reduce the need to buy "new" replacement drones and teach the advanced students valuable real-world electronics skills. I believe learning through "doing" is an important part of education. Thank you for your consideration in helping our students.
