Advanced Vertical Robotics (AVR) 2026 kicks off in Austin today at St. Michael’s. It’s always amazing to see what the @theavrdotorg team dreams up and we help bring to life with smart #drones and #software.

Same RadioMaster sticks. Same feel. Just in the sim. ✈️
Students fly in a DroneBlocks sim with a real controller plugged in, so muscle memory transfers when they hit a real drone.

Does your class fly sticks or keyboard?
#STEM #PX4

Six hungry turkeys, six orders, and they just keep walking. 🦃
Hover over a dish to pick it up, find the turkey that ordered it, and land it on its glowing spot. Fastest time tops the board. What's your class's best time?
#STEM #coding

From parts on the table to a flying DEXI-5. 🚁
Students build it, then can fly or code it.
What would your class do first?
#STEM #PX4

This is so cool!
No GPS. DEXI-3 hold its spot indoors.

How does a drone know how high it is?
A rangefinder sends a pulse that bounces off whatever's below.
Fly over a box and watch the distance change.
What would your class use height data for first?

DEXI-3 is stacked with tech, including a Raspberry Pi.
It runs any Python your students learn in Hover Lab.
What would your class code it to do first?
#PX4 #EdTech

Tag Hop mission in Python!
Take off at tag 1, climb to 2 meters, hold for 2.5 seconds, fly to tag 3, then backwards to tag 2. DEXI finds each AprilTag with its camera, so there's no GPS and nobody on the sticks.

Who you gonna call? 👻
Don't let the ghost slow you down. Hold a steady and grab those pumpkins! Deliver them as fast as you can.
What's your class's best time?

Dinosaur Rescue 🦖🥚
One of our Ground School missions involves finding 9 eggs and landing on the pad.
Students learn real flight control before they even touch a drone.
#stem #drones

🛸🛸🛸🛸🛸
Imagine five DEXI-5 drones holding formation in the open air. No GPS!
Built by hand, coded by students, flying autonomously.
This is what the future of STEM looks like.

#STEM #robotics

Pick your platform.
DEXI-3, DEXI-5 and DEXI-10.
Start where your students are, then watch them level up.

Teachers, which is your classroom's starting drone?

#edtech #px4

Building drones has never been this fun.

Build from modular, solder-free parts so students have full ownership of the mission. Build. Code. Fly

What does ownership look like to you?
