Intro to Drone Piloting (CP) – 11th -12th
0.5 credit
Prerequisite: None
The drone class is both for recreational and career interest. It focuses on learning to fly drones in three steps: using drone simulation software to fly under a variety of real life scenarios such as high winds, obstacles, and other challenging situations, then learning to fly small drones indoors without the effects of wind, and finally to fly the bigger drones outdoors for a full application of the previous two steps. Students 16 or older may also prepare for the FAA’s Remote Pilot’s Certificate if they wish to look for work piloting drones.
