Drone Project

$900.00

After severe flooding, major areas of STIIX-Ville are inaccessible. The Mayor of STIIX-Ville has issued an emergency request for aerial support. Roads are damaged, and first responders need a safe way to assess the situation.

Emergency Teams Need Aerial Inspection To:

  • Assess damaged bridges
  • Locate stranded residents
  • Deliver medical supplies
  • Identify safe landing zones

Students will apply principles of aerospace engineering and physics to design, build, and safely operate a functional wooden quadcopter. Acting as Junior Drone Engineers, students must solve a real-world emergency in the fictional community of STIIX-Ville by assessing infrastructure damage and delivering simulated medical supplies following severe flooding.

Through this mission, students will investigate torque balance, flight dynamics (Throttle, Yaw, Pitch, and Roll), and FAA safety compliance while documenting their engineering process.

  • Students Served: 15-30 students
  • Kit Size: 21"x14"x6.5"

FROM LESSON TO BUILD

Everything Educators Need to Get Started.

These aren't projects that leave teachers searching for lessons after the box arrives. STIIX project pages pair the hands-on builds with instructional content and teacher resources. Depending on the project, resources include:

  • Lesson Plans 
  • Instructional Videos 
  • How-To Sheets 
  • Student Activity Guides 
  • Quizzes 
  • Answer Keys 
  • Templates and Project Examples 
  • Testing & Evaluation Guidance 
  • Teacher Tips 
  • Career and Industry Connections 

STIIX's project library is specifically designed around hands-on Learn, Design & Build experiences, with dedicated project pages housing instructional resources and videos.

Why Educators Choose
Hands-On Engineering

Students don't learn engineering by watching someone else engineer. These bundles put the materials in their hands and the challenge in front of them. Students investigate a concept, design a solution, build it, test it, learn from what happened and try again. That's where the learning happens.
