how're we doing today I'm going to talk about how to use your telephone to learn
coatings so this is for all the parents out there who want their kids to learn
coding software coding computer science that sort of thing and learn how to use
a drones so this company drone blocks reached out to me and normally I don't
do a lot of affiliate videos or videos for certain companies because I like my
channel to just be my thoughts and just be about drones and give you an
uninfluenced sort of sort of perspective on drones but this company is doing
something really great I thought by getting kids interested in drones and
also getting kids interested in coding so if I had kids I don't have kids
but I have a nephew he's six years old so I'm gonna tell my brother and other
parents that I know hey you should get your child Otello and then sign up for
drone blocks because they can learn for just five dollars a month or fifty
dollars per year so it's a pretty inexpensive cost for your child's
education and to me drones technology computer science that's all things that
are going on right now and will be increasing with the future growing and
growing every year so I think it's a good investment for your child and it
can be fun so that's why I decided to do this video so if you're a parent uncle
or you know someone some child or someone that may be interested just
click on the link below in the description and you can get signed up
today so let me tell you a little bit more about what you get when you sign up
with drone blocks now the first question I had was couldn't you just buy a DJI
hello edu because at ello edu the educational Telo made by DJI allows you
to do all different types of coding already but actually drone blocks is a
platform that's a kind of a nicer user interface and it also has a lot more
different coding so number one drone blocks is a little cleaner user
interface it's not as distracting for your child
drone blocks is also available as a Chrome extension so it allows you to
code your drone from any computer via Wi-Fi so number 2 drone blocks offers a
JavaScript environment which DJI does not offer so drone blacks offers
a Coulomb that covers not only black coating but also Python open CV node J s
and JavaScript and I wish I learned all that different type of coding when I was
a child but it wasn't as popular as it is now and I think it's a good
investment in your child so I'll put a link to all the different type of
curriculum and sort of things that they use in the description as well so if
you're familiar with the Telo you know it's kid-friendly all right it's got
these propeller guards that just bounce off of things bounce off of walls it's
not gonna hurt anybody you can fly it and land it in your hand very easily if
you are completely new to the DJI Telo I did make a complete tutorial right up
there you can go check it out but in terms of coding for your child it
can be a lot of fun because they can put it in all these different codes when
they do them correctly your Tellez gonna fly all around if they make a mistake
it's okay even if you crash the TEL it's not really gonna break so it's really
nice because it's safe indoors it's not very expensive and it's a good thing I
believe for your child to get involved with so that's why I'm doing this video
all right so you can use drone blocks with a few other DJI drones such as the
Phantom 3 the Phantom 4 Mavic Pro Mavic air DJI spark and DJI Telo so as of this
video those are the drones that are supported by drone blocks drone blocks
is a free download and available in the iOS App Store and Google Play Store in
Chrome App Store however at this time the Android version only supports the
Telo it doesn't support the other drones but drone blocks told me they're working
hard to add full support for other DJI drones in the Android version as well
and also with drone blocks the sharing feature allows you to share your code
for example with classrooms in China could share their code with classrooms
in Texas or classrooms in Texas can share their code with classrooms in
China so this is a great way for students across the world to collaborate
with each other and participate with each other in the spirit of open source
code so if you enjoyed this video and you think you might know someone that
might enjoy using the Telo with drone blocks please share it with them
as I said before the links are in the description below and that's it for
today I'm Brett Garamella the drone pilot Pro and remember fly like a pro
