Advanced Drones

Join us for the Aggie Drone Academy - Advanced Program at the Washington County USU Extension Office, designed specifically for students ready to enhance their drone flying skills. This program is perfect for returning campers or those with prior experience, focusing on advanced flight challenges, mission planning, and real-world applications of unmanned aviation. Participants will engage in hands-on activities mirroring industry uses of drones in areas like search and rescue and aerial inspection. Additionally, students will be introduced to the Federal Aviation Administration Part 107 certification, gaining valuable insights into becoming a certified remote pilot. While campers will not take home a drone, they will train with high-quality equipment, leaving with improved skills, greater confidence, and a clearer pathway into the drone industry. To further support their growth, students will learn about ongoing skill development through our fall drone club and future certification opportunities. Each participant will also receive an exclusive camp T-shirt. Please contact the event organizer for any accessibility questions or accommodation requests. Note: This program is aimed at those with prior drone experience; beginners are encouraged to start with our introductory camps.
