Learning Takes Flight

Safe to fly both indoors and in windless conditions outdoors, the durable Echo Drone can perform aerial acrobatic moves, fly up and down and all around in three speeds, capture photos, and record short videos to a connected device. It is a great alternative to the Tello!

The Echo Drone features best-in-class technology fit for education. Students can start by flying their drone using the included R/C controller and then transition to controlling it via block-based or Scratch coding using the app. The app also enables you to use the drone’s onboard camera, which transmits images and video to your smartphone via Wi-Fi.

With Echo, you can prepare students for exciting future careers and watch learning take flight.

App Coding Options

The NEW browser-based Echo app is our recommended option for coding the Echo. Visit echo.pitsco.com for the most ideal coding experience. This app is 100% web-based and requires no downloads or software installation; no account creation is needed, and no student data is collected. The app automatically saves students’ progress, and, through a unique code system, students can easily pick up where they left off. Using the Echo app, pilots can easily program their drone via block code or Javascript syntax and command Echo via Bluetooth connection.

For additional functionality not yet available in the Echo app, the Tspeed7 or AT-66BL apps are also available for download (please choose the app best fit for your device; see our Support Links). The smartphone apps enable you to utilize Scratch code and the drone’s onboard camera, which transmits images and video to your smartphone via Wi-Fi.

App not required for flight.
