Aerospace — Autonomous drones & air delivery

Your child designs and codes an autonomous drone that takes off, navigates a course, and delivers cargo to a target — all without manual control. Done from the family living room in Berlin, Toronto, or LA, then competed at FIRA Cup with the best Iranian teams.

Frequently asked

Questions parents abroad ask us

Is it safe? Are these full-size drones?

No. We use safe indoor mini-drones at every age, with propeller guards. Outdoor flight isn't part of the curriculum.

Is the drone kit shipped internationally?

Yes. The indoor drone kit ships to families in the US, Canada, Europe, and Australia.

Do we need a backyard?

No. Everything is flown indoors. A living-room corner is enough.

What's Novin Zehn's FIRA relationship?

We are FIRA's official representative in Iran. That means real access for our students — including diaspora teams — into FIRA Cup and RoboWorld events.

Can my child start without prior experience?

Yes. Season 1 starts from zero. Trial class is free.
