what is the STEM 

behind drones?

🧪 Science – How Things Fly

• Drones stay in the air using aerodynamics, which is the study of how air moves.

• They also use physics to balance forces like lift, thrust, gravity, and drag.

• Weather science helps pilots understand wind and rain, which can affect flight.

💻 Technology – Smart Tools and Sensors

• Drones have GPS, cameras, and sensors to help them navigate and take pictures.

• They use remote controls or apps to fly, and some even use AI to fly by themselves!

🛠️ Engineering – Building the Drone

• Engineers design the frame, motors, and propellers to be strong but lightweight.

• They solve problems like keeping the drone stable and making batteries last longer.

➕ Mathematics – Flying Right

• Drones use math to measure speed, distance, and height.

• Math helps them follow paths, avoid obstacles, and land safely.

• Pilots use coordinates, angles, and timing for missions.
