Learn to maintain and fly a racing drone with a camera and video headset!
Do you want the adrenaline rush of a high-speed racing experience without even leaving your chair? Come to our drone racing summer camp and learn how to become a talented drone pilot, and to experience the exhilarating sport of drone racing!
You'll learn about drone physics, hone your skills on a flight simulator, learn how to maintain your drone, and even build your own light-up LED hoop.
As with all Tech Camp courses, take home all of your equipment at the end including the racing drone, video headset, controller and racing hoop.
WITH US?
Lean how to race and maintain a drone and take home a full set of FPV drone racing equipment
Get in-depth knowledge with cutting-edge drone tuning experience, and learn coding in C++
Designed by professional engineers for the perfect combination of learning and fun
With the help of our experienced tutors, practise flying on a realistic virtual simulator using a real transmitter to hone your skills. When you're ready, move on to the real thing and race against your classmates to get the fastest time on the circuit. As well as flying, learn about how drones work and how to tune their performance. Construct and solder your own custom LED racing ring and learn how to program a microcontroller to control it and create impressive visual effects.
The drone you'll be using is super safe, with built-in propeller guards but uses professional-quality 'brushless' motors.
Take everything home at the end, including a professional-quality transmitter, brushless drone, headset and LED hoop.
Please note: Level 1 Drone Racing does not involve building your drone, but you will learn how it works and how to maintain it. Your construction project involves building your programmable LED hoop.
Learning Drone Flying
We'll give you your own professional-quality drone controller and you'll dive straight into learning how to fly on a simulator. Build up your skills as you race around multiple virtual courses eventually moving to full 'acro' mode.
Getting the Real Drone
We'll then give you your own drone and headset to try flying in real life. Hone your skills as you learn about drone physics, and how to maintain and configure everything.
Building your hoop
Once you get really expert at flying, you'll build your own custom LED drone hoop to fly through. Solder the electronics, programme the microcontroller and design your own animated light patterns.
