Rules

• Students and drones cannot occupy the same space. Drone stay on one side of the cones, humans on the other.
• Be respectful when flying the drone, do not hit anyone, or anything with the drone.
• Keep the drone in it’s cage at all times.

Materials

• Use the DroneBlocks chrome extension to program your drone
