Let\u2019s Build a Drone!<\/h1>\n
\n
\n Create a drone frame in ten easy steps with NCLab\u2019s 3D Modeling app. The resulting frame can be exported as an STL file to be 3D printed, then used to build a real drone.\u00a0 You can even customize it with your initials! Complete the activity on your own, or as part of a class.\u00a0 Teachers are invited to download companion lesson plans.This is a \u201creal world\u201d introduction to 3D Modeling<\/strong>.\u00a0 3D Modeling is a vital part of engineering, manufacturing, art, science, medicine, and much more.\u00a0 Think about your favorite animations, or the advances in artificial limb design.\u00a0 Need a part?\u00a0 Design and print it on a 3D printer!<\/p>\n

As you perform your coding<\/strong> magic, watch the drone frame come to life.\u00a0 The ten steps of the assembly process all begin with a short tutorial and clear instructions.\u00a0 Then, simply complete the code and press the play button.\u00a0 The results will show in the viewer.\u00a0 You will immediately see if your code is correct, or if you need to adjust it.\u00a0 Don\u2019t be afraid to make mistakes! Try each step as many times as you like.<\/p>\n

You will practice many modeling skills and improve your understanding of geometry<\/strong>. Learn how to:<\/p>\n
