The Association for Unmanned Vehicles Systems (UVS) International projected more than 100,000 new jobs will be created in unmanned aircraft by 2025. The average drone pilot makes about $82,000 a year according to Glassdoor.com. A drone pilot with less than a year can charge $26.00 an hour according to National Guard data. Based on this employment data, our middle school will offer 6th through 8th grade students opportunities to take Mr. Clemmons’ technology classes. The Tello drones you sponsor here will allow students to engage in a hands-on drone curriculum designed to nurture and mature students' understanding of STEM through aeronautics. Students will: -gain an understanding of aeronautics careers (real world awareness growth) -learn about UAV parts and systems (increase understanding of physics and the environment) -learn about UAV flight safety (learn to lookout for others and oneself) -learn about UAV flight theory (gain aeronautics intelligence) -learn to fly UAVs safely (gain more awareness of the physical environment) -learn to program a UAV (gain problem solving skills) -learn to map with a UAV (apply flight skills to their environment) -learn to analyze drone pictures and videos with GIS software (mature analytical skills) -use UAVs to remedy community problems (apply all aeronautics lessons learned to the real world) All students will earn their FAA Recreational TRUST certificate before their 1st flight. All students will have the option to earn an FAA Part 107 certificate.
