About this camp

In the Coder's Clubhouse Drone Commanders: Code • Fly • Compete Camp, students gain real piloting skills and explore the physics of flight. Campers program autonomous drone missions using sequencing, timing, and flight logic, tackling professional-style challenges such as search grids, supply runs, and precision landings. They also design and engineer obstacle courses, refining strategies through testing. The camp culminates in the Drone Olympics, where students compete in categories like speed, accuracy, and creativity, showcasing their flight plans and the coding behind their missions. This hands-on experience fosters spatial reasoning, strategic thinking, teamwork, problem-solving, and public presentation skills.
