Success: Inaugural Drone Flight with Code

Learning Code

The language used to control drones can be Swift, Python, Javascript or Blockly. Since Blockly is a good platform to understand programming logic we started with that. We used the iPad app Tello EDU to create the code that controlled the drone.

Programming logic

The first app created to control the drone was what we called "Hello Drone"!  The code blocks used launched the drone, went up 100 cm, make a 360 degree turn, them finally land.

Success

Every club member completed the app and successfully launched the Hello app.
