Transcript
- 0:03 · Welcome
DroneWorks is the central gateway to our drone education ecosystem.
- 0:08 · Command Center
Students begin with a live command center connecting weather, flight conditions, current drone technology, learning activities, and real-world opportunities.
- 0:18 · Apps
From one location, students can launch specialized tools for weather, sectional charts, mission planning, equipment, Part 107 preparation, and more.
- 0:27 · Discover
Drone Discovery connects classroom learning to the real world, showing how unmanned systems are transforming construction, surveying, mapping, public safety, agriculture, infrastructure, and other industries.
- 0:40 · Engineer
Engineering Lab takes students beneath the aircraft, exploring motors, electronics, sensors, flight controllers, power systems, and how those components work together.
- 0:51 · Weather
Live weather becomes part of instruction. Students learn to read METARs and TAFs, evaluate conditions, and understand why weather matters before a drone ever leaves the ground.
- 1:02 · Pathways
DroneWorks also answers a question students ask constantly: What can I do with this? They can explore careers, education pathways, certifications, scholarships, internships, and actions they can begin taking now.
- 1:17 · Intelligence
Curated Drone Intelligence keeps the classroom connected to a rapidly changing industry while filtering content for an appropriate educational environment.
- 1:26 · DroneWorks
DroneWorks turns drone education into something students can explore, build, connect, and use. Crack the Code. Read the Sky.
