The program offers both introductory and practice-focused workshops, allowing participants to either learn the fundamentals or refine their existing drone flying skills with expert guidance.
Minneapolis Community Education offers a "Drones 1: Essentials" course and a "Drones 4: Practice Workshop" during the summer. The Essentials course provides an introductory overview of drones, aerial photography, and videography. Students will learn about various drone options, rules and regulations for airspace, flight planning, and fundamental aerial photo and video techniques. The Practice Workshop builds on previous classes, focusing on hands-on drone flying to enhance skills and improve operational safety. It includes practical tips, tricks, demos from instructors, and discussions on new and advanced topics. Both courses aim to provide participants with a solid understanding of drone operation and safety, whether they are new to drones or looking to refine their existing skills.
A typical day involves a mix of theoretical learning about drone essentials, rules, and techniques, followed by practical demonstrations and opportunities for hands-on drone flying, weather permitting.
This camp is best for individuals who are new to drones, looking to purchase one, or already own a drone and want to enhance their flying skills and knowledge of aerial photography and videography.
