How to enable students to achieve challenging flight missions through programming

In this ten-hour workshop, students will learn how to use the Tello EDU App to program the Tello Talents drone.

First, we will explain how to make a drone fly autonomously by using sensors such as an IR ToF sensor.


Students will then be guided to design and execute their own flight missions.

In the last part of the workshop, we will teach students how to make a drone and perform a simple dance. By participating in this workshop, students will gain basic drone programming skills and practical experience.





Course Content
  1. Explore the structure, sensors, and flight principles of Tello Talent

  2. Tello Talent "One-to-one automatic flight programming":

    • From the basics to the advanced, students are taught how to use the image programming software in the Tello EDU App to set commands for automatic flight.

    • Learn how to use logic blocks, such as "If", "Then", "Loop", etc., to design advanced flight commands for your aircraft.

    • Using Tello Talent's unique external module, the road conditions ahead can be detected to achieve unmanned autonomous flight tasks.

  3. Flight missions at a glance:

    • Traffic lights in the sky

    • Unmanned flight - escape the maze

    • Unmanned autonomous flight - climbing mountains and ridges

  4. Tello Talent "One-to-many group programming":

    • Learn to use the Router to connect multiple Tello Talents to a central control and set different flight commands for each.

    • Design flying motions for multi-axis timelines, allowing Tello Talent to fly interactively in the air.







Instructors

INSPIRE Elites

INSPIRE Elites

Our team of instructors has rich knowledge and skills in drone operation and programming, and can effectively impart knowledge to students in a vivid and interesting way. The beginner experience courses are mainly taught by college students in the team. They are close in age to the students and can establish a good interactive and learning atmosphere with the students. Our instructors are passionate about teaching and can explain difficult technical knowledge in an easy-to-understand way, ensuring that students can easily learn and master the course content.

Add-on Services

We offer the following Add-on services to further enhance students' drone programming skills:


  • Competition Training - e.g By RoboMaster

    • Focused on improving students' ability to swiftly design and organize programs to complete competition mazes or tracks within a limited time.

    • Learn how to create fast and executable flight programs using fewer building blocks and greater tolerance.


  • School Demonstration Days - e.g., Open Days, STEM Days, Sharing Talks

    • Specializing in developing specific programs that allow students to showcase their drone flying capabilities, whether in single-drone or group flight mode.

    • Students will be able to display their programming skills and drone control techniques while sharing their achievements with peers.

FAQ

  • Q: How are safety concerns addressed?

    A:We utilize Tello Talent and Hula drones due to their lightweight design and built-in propeller guards, ensuring a high level of safety for indoor operations. Furthermore, we maintain adequate safety measures by enforcing a secure distance between students and drones during flight tests. Schools have the option to procure third-party liability insurance. Upon request, we can incorporate this service into our quotation.


  • Q:Are drones available for purchase or rental?

    A:Tello Talent drones are available for purchase or rental by schools, whereas Hula drones are not offered as a rental option. For better cost management and control over usage rights, we recommend that schools or organizations consider purchasing drones directly.

Applicable Subsidies

If your school wishes to apply for relevant subsidies or funding, we can advise you or help you prepare the required documents.
