Students have the choice of attending Saturday labs in the morning (9 a.m.-12 p.m.) or afternoon (1 p.m.-4 p.m.).
The course will teach students the basics of drone flight and photography. At the conclusion of the course students will be prepared to take the FAA’s Part 107 sUAS (small Unmanned Aircraft System) exam.
