This 2 ECTS self-paced MOOC deepens your competence in drone navigation, positioning, and autonomous flight from a system-level perspective. You will explore how flight controllers, propulsion components, and onboard sensors work together to enable stable flight, positioning, and autonomous safety functions. The course connects technical decisions to real application scenarios and highlights how operating conditions and regulatory constraints influence safe and effective drone operations.
Learning is based on short focused readings, interactive visuals, scenario tasks, auto-graded quizzes, and simulator-supported practice. By the end of the course, you will be able to evaluate component and sensor choices, reason about flight behaviour, diagnose common technical issues, and produce a justified technical outline as preparation for later hands-on drone building and configuration.
