Daily Logs

Day 1 ( The first day of flying the drones all I did was plays around with them, Crash them ,Almost break them and just messed around

Day 2( We two i watched a video on how they work and how to control them and continued with trial and error how to fly the drones

Day 3 ( I really began to understand which controllers did what and took the drones thru the orange hoops and took some pictures and videos for my website

Day 4( Today we messed around allot and learned how to flip the drones and we crashed several times but we finally figured out how to properly flip the drones

Day 5( we took the drones down to the cafeteria and we did some long distance flying along as taking videos of our flips and short distance flying.

What my project relates to

I Think flying drones relates to an empowered learner this ties into that because of the awareness around you when your flying drones if you aren't aware of the surroundings you could hurt something or someone and break things also you need the proper skills to fly the drone like an empowered learner need proper skills at the beginning I had no idea how to fly the drone know I have the proper skills and knowledge to fly drones.

Images and Videos

Here is a picture of the drone i'm flying and the controller that controls it.

What is your plan to create in this project?

Learn how to properly fly drones.

What unique qualities will your project have?

The element of flying and being able to control a flying object.

• Using drones , I created a art because of the different ways you can fly drones.

• During this process, I learned the proper way to fly drones and different ways you can fly them and all the cool tricks you can do with them.

• The 7 standards of the class are Empowered Learner, Digital Citizen, Knowledge Constructor, Innovative Designer, Computational Thinker, Creative Communicator, and Global Collaborator. My project ties to an empowered learner because of the awareness around you when your flying drones if you aren't aware of the surroundings you could hurt something or someone and break things also you need the proper skills to fly the drone like an empowered learner need proper skills at the beginning I had no idea how to fly the drone know I have the proper skills and knowledge to fly drones.

• A challenge I overcame on this project was learning how to fly drones and just learn the drones in the beginning it was hard and at times extremely frustrating. I was able to do it by keep pushing ,not giving up and by watching instructional videos.

• Given a chance to do this again, I would change the tricks we did and instead have obstacle course races. The reason why I would change it is because i think it would be cool to add a scene of competition to flying drone.

• Hastings High School Career and Technical Education Program offers Agriculture, Business Management, Computer Programming, Construction Trades, Culinary Arts, Digital Multimedia, Engineering Design, Finance, Insurance, Marketing. My project connects to the technical education and programs because theirs drones you can program do to stuff and you could educate about flying drones. CTE program at Hastings High School. My project connects to careers in flying drones and recording stuff off of drones.
