Forces, Flight, and Learning with UAVs (Drones): Lesson 2 of 4
by Rob Lynch
In this hands-on lesson, students learn how to get their drone into the air. It covers hovering, yaw, roll, and pitch. Before the students launch their drones, there is a discussion about preparing the drones for flight as well as establishing safety policies for creating a safe flight area. Helpful resources including videos are included.
This is the 2nd lesson in a series of 4. Links to all lessons in the unit are included!
