Campers get to build, program, and pilot their own quadcopters, and take home a hand-size drone at the end of the week.
In the Club SciKidz East Bay Drone Summer Camp, campers delve into the exciting world of aerial robotics. Participants engage in hands-on activities where they build, program, and pilot quadcopters. The curriculum focuses on developing aviation flight skills and providing interactive robotics training through engaging challenges and scenarios. Campers will fly Tello Boost drones, conducting test scenarios for safety, search, and rescue missions. They will also work in teams to design and build quad rotors for specific first responder missions, including navigating obstacle courses, learning aerodynamics, and maneuvering drones for tasks like hazardous waste container inspection and lost hiker searches. A key outcome of the camp is that each camper will operate and take home their own hand-size quadcopter at the end of the week, solidifying their practical skills and fostering continued interest in STEM fields.
A typical day includes a general check-in, an all-camp science demonstration, and three S.T.E.A.M rotations. Campers also have snack breaks, lunch with recess, and an afternoon outdoor component focused on team and skill-building activities.
This camp is ideal for aspiring engineers, inventors, and tech enthusiasts who enjoy hands-on projects and outdoor challenges, with no prior experience required.
