DROBOTS: DRONE RACING AND OBSTACLE COURSE CHALLENGE This program is filled with pure action as students learn about the basic safety of drone flying and the history behind drone racing as a sport. Campers will progress through various skill challenges and learn how to perform various exercises and maneuvers to become familiar with the drone’s speed and agility.
