Ever dreamed of making your LEGOs fly as a kid? Now you can with this DIY drone kit.
Is it just us, or have people become drone-obsessed lately? They fly them in parks, beaches — basically any wide open area they can find. Your neighbor’s drone is probably even lodged in the tree in your backyard as you read this.
With the rise of recreational drones, users are more concerned with how to take the perfect aerial selfie as opposed to how their small, pilotless aircraft is capable of maneuvering the skies in the first place. Wouldn’t it be cool to discover the inner workings of the flying vehicles you love so much?
The Force Flyers DIY Building Block Drone offers a way for you to grasp the science behind drones, while still letting you enjoy a fun piloting experience. A great gift idea for kids, the kit provides you with building blocks to engineer and customize your drone, which means you’ll simultaneously learn STEM concepts like aerodynamics, weight distribution, lift tolerance, and more. Tinker with the drone to your heart’s content, and you (or your child) can become a smarter engineer along the way.
Available in your starter kit of choice — Police, Firefighter, Army, and Spaceship — it’s compatible with major building block brands like LEGO. Once you’ve assembled and configured your drone, you can pilot it anywhere thanks to the digital proportional control and 6-axis gyro that allows for smooth flying. All parts are made of crash-resistant ASB plastic, so you can still expect it to survive impact and accidental drops. Plus, you can pull off seamless 360-degree stunt flips if you decide to get fancy.
Snag the Force Flyers DIY Building Block Drone on sale today for $42.99 — 14% off the usual $49.99.
