Drone Legends

One of our favorite classic Drone Legends missions is Helper Bees.

Students begin with a real-world challenge: bees are struggling, crops need pollination, and scientists need help.

Then they bring the mission to life.

They build lilies, fly drones, measure distances, code autonomous flight paths, use coordinates, test their ideas, revise their work, and collaborate as a team.

That is what Drone Legends does best.

We turn STEM into a story students can step into.

We turn drone flight into problem solving.

We turn coding into a mission.

And we give students a classroom experience they remember.

Watch the video and you’ll see why Helper Bees is still one of our favorites.

The school year is wrapping up, but some teams still have 2025/2026 funds to allocate before June 30.

We wrote a short guide on how schools can use remaining funds wisely for K-8 STEM programming.

Little Legends™ helps K-3 students learn through story, play, teamwork, and screen-free STEM activities.

STEM Fundamentals™ gives grades 4-8 students hands-on drone missions connected to coding, engineering, math, and real-world problem solving.

If you are planning summer programs, after-school programs, enrichment, or next school year, this is worth a read.

Maximizing Year-End Funds for Engaging K-8 STEM Programs That Inspire Future Innovators Use remaining school year funds before June 30 to build practical K-8 STEM programming with Drone Legends. Little Legends™ supports K-3 with screen-free, play-based STEM, while STEM Fundamentals™ gives grades 4-8 hands-on drone missions for coding, engineering, math, and real-world problem solvi...

At Drone Legends, we use the word “legend” every day.

But today, that word belongs to those who earned it in the highest possible way.

We remember the men and women who gave their lives in service to our country.

Their courage gave us freedom.
Their sacrifice gave us tomorrow.
Their legacy lives on.

Today, we honor the true legends.

Big ideas. Real creativity. Incredible students.

Congratulations to the winners of the 2026 Drone Legends Design a Drone Challenge. 🏆

Students were challenged to identify a real-world problem and design a drone solution to help solve it.

It’s Teacher Appreciation Week, and we know how we feel about our Drone Legends educators.

You are THE Legend Makers.

Thank you for showing up every day with energy, patience, creativity, and purpose. You make STEM exciting. You make drones meaningful. You help students see what they are capable of.

We are grateful for every teacher, coach, and program leader who brings Drone Legends to life.

Inside every child lives a legend™.

Today is May 4th.

You didn’t think Gimbal was going to miss this, did you?

May the 4th be with you.
