Flight Path Future Tech

Take the controls and step into the skies of tomorrow. Families explore the fascinating world of drone technology together - through hands-on coding, creative problem solving and real flying challenges inspired by the future of Royal Navy aviation. 

Whether you're guiding your drone through a mission or perfecting a smooth autonomous landing, this is a chance to test your logic, hone your skills and experience flight innovation up close. 

Drone Coding: Become a Future Pilot-Engineer 

Learn to code one of our fully programmable drones using intuitive block-based coding - accessible for beginners yet rewarding for those ready to push their skills further. 

Write your flight plan. Launch. Watch your drone take to the air. 

Along the way, you'll: 

• Navigate challenges and obstacles 

• Land away and return to base autonomously 

• De bug and adapt your instructions 

• See each improvement reflected instantly in flight 

Every mission is a chance to investigate, iterate and fly smarter. 

Perfect for ages 7+. 

Free with a valid museum ticket.  

Activities run all day and operate on a rolling basis, subject to availability. 

This is a National STEM Programme event.
