Airblock Drone and Hovercraft |
|||||||||||||||||
Lots of schools have Drone classes, but have you seen the Airblock Drone? It is like nothing else before it, and is simply the most amazing, versatile drone for education. It is easy to use inside in a gym, hallway, or classroom with high ceilings. Our Drone Curriculum makes it easy for any teacher to become a STEM teacher, with little to no background in drones. Did you know that you can learn coding with drones? With the Airblock you can! Our drone coding lessons make it easy for students to learn coding concepts using block based code. They create their own custom control App that can be used to fly the drone, operate a hovercraft, and engineer the drone for a special mission - such as package delivery. |

Curriculum ResourcesStudent self-directed learning includes over 20 hours of online lessons with 15-30 min activities, videos, step by step instructions, worksheets, handouts, enrichment exercises, science logs, and links to online resources.
A Drone and Hovercraft in one!The Airblock Drone STEM education kit is an easy and fun way to create both aerodynamics and hydrodynamics science experiments. It can easily be assembled as a drone or a hovercraft in minutes, with no tools required.
Engage in STEM LessonsWhile planning a flight route, students will use math to calculate weight, height, angles of rotation, and speed. They will also consider physical science concepts of air lift, force, and energy transfer. Concepts such as friction and buoyancy are easy to grasp with activities in air, on land, and in water. Other topics include safety, flight physics, mimic drones in industry, systems, coding, career opportunities, and lots of fun competitions!
Control with Apps and CodeStudents use Apps on a Tablet to control the Airblock Drone or Hovercraft. They can also customize the actions with Scratch code with a drag and drop puzzle-like interface in Windows or Mac OS. Send code to the Arduino on the drone with a Bluetooth connection for easy control in activities and competitions. |
