Meet CoDrone EDU

A Drone Made for Learning

Ages: 12+
Programming languages: Blockly and Python
What you'll learn: Drones, flight, accelerometers, gyroscopes, LEDs, color sensors, obstacle detection, sound, block coding, text-coding

The CoDrone EDU is a programmable drone, meant for learning in the classroom. Code it in Python or start from the basics with block-based coding. Unique to this drone are its color sensors, a front range sensor, a bottom range sensor, among others—all usable in code. With a durable and safe frame, programmable lights, and access to its 7 sensors, it's an excellent learning too and a great way to learn coding and engineering skills.

This is a great bundle for a small classroom. It includes 12 drones with additional accessories and professional development to make sure you're confident using it in the classroom on day 1. We recommend 2 students to 1 drone, with a drone or two for the teacher. This is a great set to purchase for a class of 5 - 15 students.
