Description
Bring build-and-fly STEM to a whole class with the MakeKit Air:bit 2 Classroom Kit — six complete micro:bit drone kits so students can build, code and fly in pairs or small groups. It's the original micro:bit drone, scaled for the classroom.
What's included:
- Six complete Air:bit 2 micro:bit drone construction kits
- Repairable, laser-cut birch parts designed and made in Norway
- Code in Microsoft MakeCode, JavaScript or Python — one platform for mixed abilities
- Each drone charges in under an hour and withstands crash landings
- Suitable from around age 11 (upper primary and secondary)
- Please note: BBC micro:bits are not included. Two per drone are recommended (one in the drone as micro:bit V2, one as a controller), or fly with the free iPad or Android app
What students practise:
- Coding and computational thinking in three real languages
- Electronics, motors and the aerodynamics of flight
- Teamwork, problem-solving and design
Fully repairable and made from sustainable materials, this classroom set is built to be built, flown and fixed year after year — and each control board can be rebuilt into a hovercraft or robot car for even more projects.
