Teams learn about drones, flight principles, programming, documentation, and communication skills while expanding their understanding and building interest for drone-related workforce and career opportunities.
Students pilot and program drones, and document their process in a competition logbook. Our competition has FOUR focuses: Teamwork, Autonomous Flight Skills Challenge, Piloting Skills Challenge, and Competition Logbooks.

Teams plan to arrive close to 9 am at SUNY Canton. We will start flying at 9:30-9:45.
We will have one cooperative field and one flight/code course set up. One match at a time. As this is the first time any of us has run the competition, we are keeping it light and fun.
Lunch is available for $10/person and is a buffet. The number of people using this option would be appreciated for preparation purposes.
We plan to leave for return trips at 12:30 and fit in as many scrimmages as possible.
