Build a Drone Workshop

The DaVinci Challenge: Build a Drone workshop provides engaging learning experiences where students design, build, test, and fly their own quadcopters. An essential part of the process requires students to document their build and lectures through a build log. The teams also research a flying creature and prepare a presentation on its unique flying capabilities.

Our goal is to open up pathways to new technologies and experiences to help teachers and students gain the skills they need to succeed in the future.

Objective 1: In this hands-on workshop participants will build, program, and learn to operate a fully autonomous drone. The workshop will help students understand the mechanics of flight, the integration of hardware and software before programming and calibrating the drone for flight tests.

Objective 2: Train participants on how to fly the drone manually and execute fully autonomous missions using Mission Planner software.

Objective 3: Participants will learn about drone applications and discuss mission-focused drone projects that integrate sensors and computer vision to solve real-world problems.

We highly encourage team participation, but you can register as a single participant. Teachers and students can both register for an immersive experience. You must bring your own Windows Laptop. 

Age 14+ or Age 10+ with a team member who is at least 16 years old.

Maximum Number of Team Members: 4

If you would like to register more then 4 team members working on one drone please contact us at info@kashmirworldfoundation.org
