Teams navigate drones through eight creative, ‘man-made’ obstacles by decoding illustrated cards, assigning roles, and practising choreographed moves. Each member takes a turn flying the drone, perfecting techniques before racing against the clock. Success relies on agility, clear planning, and synchronised teamwork, making this an engaging and memorable team challenge.

Drone Control
Drone Control is a high-energy team building challenge where participants fly drones through obstacles. Teams plan, choreograph moves, and practise to achieve speed and precision. This fun activity develops agility, innovative thinking, and coordination under pressure, reinforcing teamwork, strategic planning, and adaptability while everyone gets hands-on with the technology.

Description
Learning Outcomes
Drone Control is more than flying drones — it’s a powerful metaphor for agile, coordinated teamwork. Participants sharpen their strategic planning as they interpret obstacles, allocate roles, and choreograph precise moves. Time pressure encourages them to find efficiencies, adapt quickly to changing roles, and keep improving their approach. This process fosters innovation and highlights the value of clear communication, trust, and continuous learning. The challenge keeps everyone fully engaged without making individuals feel overly exposed, balancing competition with safe exploration of team dynamics. Teams walk away energised, with stronger bonds and practical insights into how flexibility and collective focus drive success.
