About the book →A flight-ready classroom drone kit that turns Python and block coding into something students can actually watch take off — delivered and supported nationwide by RobotLAB.
The Robolink CoDrone EDU Classroom Pack is a complete, ready-to-teach set of programmable mini-drones built for STEM and computer-science classrooms. Each palm-sized drone is coded in either Blockly (drag-and-drop blocks) or Python, so the same hardware carries a class from first-time coders through to text-based programming. Onboard are seven sensors — gyroscope, accelerometer, barometer, optical flow, a front range sensor, a bottom range sensor, and a dual underside color sensor — all readable in code, which lets students write real programs that respond to the world instead of just flying a pre-set path. RobotLAB resells the pack at $3,200, or starting at roughly through its Robot-as-a-Service program.
The CoDrone EDU is Robolink's purpose-built successor to the older CoDrone Pro, redesigned specifically for the realities of a classroom. Heavy propeller guards and a drop-tolerant modular frame let it survive collisions with walls, desks, and arms; motors and propellers swap out individually so a damaged drone is repaired rather than replaced. It pairs to its Smart Controller over a radio link that Robolink has tested with up to 15 drones flying in one room without connection drops, and the drone-to-controller pairing persists once set, removing the re-pairing scramble that eats class time. Each drone weighs about 54.8 g (1.93 oz) and delivers 7-8 minutes of flight per charge with a roughly 60-minute recharge.
RobotLAB sells this as a deployable classroom solution, not a box of parts. As a national robotics integrator, RobotLAB handles white-glove delivery, setup, and educator training, and backs the pack with ongoing technical support — so a school's IT or STEM lead doesn't have to assemble a drone program from scratch. The pack ships in 12-drone (recommended for 5-15 students) and 18-drone (15-30 students) configurations, sized to Robolink's suggested 2-students-to-1-drone ratio with a spare or two for the teacher. Buy outright, lease, or subscribe via RaaS depending on how a district prefers to budget.

The core market. Aimed at ages 12+ (roughly grades 6-10), the pack lets students progress from Blockly blocks to Python on the same drone, making abstract code visible the moment it takes flight. The 2-to-1 student ratio and durable, guarded frame are built for the wear of a full class period, and free lessons covering flight safety, flight commands, and programming fundamentals give teachers a ready curriculum starting point.
Universities and community colleges use the CoDrone EDU in introductory programming, robotics, and engineering courses where students need to read real sensor data — color, range, optical flow, IMU — and write autonomous flight logic in Python. The modular, repairable design and persistent radio pairing suit lab settings where many units run at once and equipment cycles through many hands each term.
Robolink offers a JROTC edition of the same classroom pack, making the CoDrone EDU a fit for JROTC units and CTE pathways that introduce drone operation and programming. The same hardware supports structured, instructor-led drone curriculum in a contained indoor environment without the airspace and licensing overhead of outdoor flight.

Same-day response. We handle delivery, on-site setup, staff training, and ongoing service nationwide.
Both are the same drone and curriculum, just sized differently. The 12-drone pack is recommended for classes of 5-15 students, and the 18-drone pack for classes of 15-30, based on Robolink's suggested 2-students-per-drone ratio. RobotLAB lists both configurations at the $3,200 price point shown here. To confirm exactly which configuration and accessory counts fit your class, call 1-87-RobotLAB.
Each pack includes the drones and matching Smart Controllers plus rechargeable batteries, dual-battery chargers, replacement propeller sets, replacement motor sets, and replacement frame sets so a class can keep flying through normal wear. Single-unit boxes also include a USB cable, propeller removal tool, screwdriver and hardware, a Quickstart Guide, labels, and color landing pads. Exact accessory quantities vary by the 12- vs 18-drone configuration — call 1-87-RobotLAB for the current bill of materials.
Two: Blockly, a drag-and-drop block language for beginners, and Python for text-based coding. Because both run on the same drone, a class can start in Blockly and move up to Python without buying new hardware. The drone's seven sensors are all readable in code, so students can write programs that react to color, distance, and motion.
Both. RobotLAB sells the pack outright at $249 and also offers it through its Robot-as-a-Service (RaaS) program starting at roughly , plus leasing options, so districts can match the purchase to how they budget. For a quote tailored to your funding situation, including grant-friendly structures, call 1-87-RobotLAB.
The CoDrone EDU was redesigned from the older CoDrone Pro specifically for classroom durability. It has heavy propeller guards that keep the blades from direct contact during crashes into walls, desks, or arms, and a modular frame where motors and propellers can be swapped individually rather than scrapping a whole drone. The classroom pack also ships with replacement motors, propellers, and frame sets, and carries a 2-year warranty. Questions on repairs or support, call 1-87-RobotLAB.
The CoDrone EDU is Robolink's newer, classroom-focused successor to the CoDrone Pro. Compared with the Pro, the EDU adds more and better sensors, a more durable guarded frame, more stable flight, and a radio connection Robolink has tested with up to 15 drones in one room without dropouts — plus persistent controller pairing that saves setup time each period. If you're choosing between the two for a program, call 1-87-RobotLAB and we'll help you pick.
Robolink recommends the CoDrone EDU for ages 12 and up, roughly grades 6-10, and it's also used in higher-ed intro programming labs, JROTC units, and CTE pathways. Plan on about 2 students per drone: the 12-pack suits 5-15 students and the 18-pack 15-30. To map a pack to your specific course and roster, call 1-87-RobotLAB.
