Our Best Drone for the Classroom
Introducing the CoDrone EDU, the perfect drone for the classroom. With years of experience using drones for learning, we've designed a drone that's learning first. It provides open access to code and sensor data for talking about STEM topics, and enough durability and repairability to withstand the rigors of classroom use.
Blockly and Python
Start with block-based coding to get foundational knowledge about coding, or dive straight into Python, one of the most popular coding languages used today.
7 Sensors, Code Ready
There are plenty of advanced sensors packed into a small package. All of these sensors can be accessed from code and used to detect information about the environment.
Accelerometer
For sensing acceleration
Gyroscope
For sensing rotation
Barometer
For sensing height and pressure
Front range
For sensing obstacles ahead
Bottom range
For sensing distance to the ground
Color
For sensing surface colors
Optical flow
For sensing relative position
Code Sounds & Light
Code the lights and sound to indicate when you've detected an obstacle or flown above a certain height, or code them just for fun.
Programmable Controller and LCD Screen
The controller isn't just for piloting—it reads real-time sensor data and it's also fully programmable. Use code to create your own controls, draw sensor data on the screen, or create your own applications.
A Drone, Made for the Classroom
We know classrooms have unique needs. With years of experience using drones as a teaching tool in the classroom, we've created our latest drone that's tailored for learning.
Safe
Flexible guards that minimize damage to the drone and your classroom
Durable, Fixable
Modular enough so that if parts need to be replaced, they can be
Stable Signal
Use up to 15 drones in a classrom without worrying about signal interference
