DroneAid: Build a Drone from Parts to Flight

A five-hour hands-on build session: in pairs, you assemble a complete 10-inch FPV interceptor drone from loose components to running motors. DroneAid Paris supplies the kit, the tools and a manual, and its instructors work the room. Between builds you can fly tiny whoops in a netted area and test yourself on an FPV simulator. The drones built here are tested and then donated to an association supporting Ukraine, so the session doubles as a look at the conditions these machines actually operate in. Tickets are per drone, not per person: 250 EUR covers a full drone, 150 EUR a shared build with a teammate. Four places were left at the time of writing. The exact address is sent after registration. Why go: it is the rare Paris event you leave with hands-on knowledge of a hardware category everyone talks about and almost nobody has touched. Best for engineers, hardware founders and anyone working near defence or robotics.
