About Drone Legends

Drone Legends is a total game-changer when it comes to making STEM education exciting, relevant, and unforgettable — all through the power of drones. This isn’t your typical sit-and-listen curriculum; it’s a fully immersive, hands-on adventure that puts students in the pilot’s seat of real-world learning. Sure, kids learn to fly drones safely and confidently — but that’s just the beginning. The true magic is how Drone Legends uses drones as a gateway to critical 21st-century skills that stick for life.

Through a series of cleverly designed missions, students are challenged to solve real-world problems — from navigating obstacle courses and delivering payloads to responding to simulated natural disasters. Along the way, they tackle age-appropriate lessons in physics, math, engineering, coding, and design thinking. They learn how to plan missions, collect and analyze aerial data, troubleshoot in the field, and adapt on the fly when things don’t go according to plan (which, let’s be honest, is a life lesson all by itself).

Drone Legends doesn’t just teach tech — it builds soft skills that matter just as much: teamwork, communication, leadership, and the confidence to take risks and fail forward. It transforms curious students into capable innovators who see drones not just as toys but as tools for exploration, problem-solving, and impact.

Whether it’s used in classrooms, after-school clubs, camps, or maker spaces, Drone Legends creates an environment where learning feels like play — but the takeaways are serious. Students come away not just knowing how to fly — but understanding why flight works, how to apply STEM concepts in the real world, and what they can do next if they want to turn that spark into a future career in aviation, robotics, or engineering.

In a world where technology is evolving faster than ever, Drone Legends gives the next generation a safe place to experiment, invent, and take flight with confidence. It’s not just a program — it’s a launchpad for kids to see themselves as tomorrow’s pilots, coders, problem-solvers, and leaders who aren’t afraid to push the boundaries of what’s possible.

Course Overview.
 
A New Precision Drone Pilot Training Program

Ready-to-run out of the box, The FPV Initiator program not only equips students with real-world precision drone piloting skills but also opens the door to competitive drone racing through the Unified Scholastic Drone Racing Association (USDRA). With FPV Initiator, students can go from mastering the fundamentals of FPV drone operations to taking part in thrilling, real-life and virtual drone racing events hosted by the USDRA.

Designed for the novice teacher and student, information is presented through engaging lesson modules that make it easy to teach and learn. We’ve done the heavy lifting for you so you can focus on what’s important – coaching and preparing your students for success.

WHAT IS FPV? FIRST PERSON VIEW = REAL WORLD SIMULATION
 

FPV stands for First-Person View. When piloting the drone, students wear VR goggles, allowing them to see from the drone’s perspective. Unlike traditional drones, which are piloted from the pilot’s ground perspective, FPV offers a viewpoint directly from the drone. This provides an exceptionally immersive experience, leading to more precise flying and heightened accuracy. The outcome is faster reactions and a heightened awareness of the surroundings. That’s why we call it “precision drone pilot training.”
