DROBOTS kept the momentum flying on Day 2 at STARBASE!

Campers put their engineering and problem-solving skills to the test as they competed in Sphero soccer, constructed rockets, navigated drones through an obstacle course, and launched Eggbert on a flight mission to see if their safety restraint systems could protect their precious passenger.

Day 2 was packed with innovation, teamwork, and discovery!

DROBOTS summer camp is off to a soaring start at STARBASE!

Campers kicked off Day 1 by designing custom drone propellers with CAD, taking their first flights as drone pilots, designing soccer players for exciting Sphero soccer matches, and investigating the amazing properties of air through hands-on experiments.

From designing and testing to flying and discovering, our young innovators packed a lot of STEAM into one exciting day. We can't wait to see what they accomplish next!
