Drones
Join FeenX and Take Flight!
Are you ready to design, build, and pilot a quadcopter drone? As part of FeenX, you’ll join a team of creative minds working together to tackle the exciting UAS4STEM challenge. Here’s what you’ll do:
-
Build the Drone: The team will design and assemble a quadcopter drone (uncrewed aircraft system, or UAS) by selecting and purchasing components based on competition specifications provided in the UAS4STEM rule book.
-
Custom Solutions: You’ll create a custom mechanism for our drone to complete a unique mission challenge outlined in the competition rules.
-
Autonomous Programming: Learn to program an autopilot system to perform tasks autonomously—combining coding and engineering for real-world results.
-
Ground School Training: Dive into the essentials of flight, safety, and the national airspace through an online ground school program.
-
Complete Your sUAS: You’ll work as a team to integrate a laptop ground control station with our drone, creating a fully functional small uncrewed air system (sUAS) to tackle the challenge.
This is more than just building a drone—it’s about teamwork, problem-solving, and learning skills that can take you to new heights. Whether you’re a tech enthusiast or just curious about aviation, FeenX offers an exciting opportunity to grow, innovate, and succeed.
