Program Introduction
DJI Unmanned Aerial Vehicle
In recent years, the UAV industry has developed rapidly. UAV is mainly used in aerial surveying and mapping, patrol inspection, national defense security, agriculture, film and television shooting. ASDAN China and the Shanghai campus of UTC, the official UAV application technology training center of DJI, launch DJI Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Program. It gives students an opportunity to immerse themselves in UAV knowledge and cutting-edge applications in the exclusive UAV base and airspace, and conduct hands-on UAV engineering design, production, assembly, autonomous flight, obstacle racing, programming practice, etc.

DJI Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Systems Training Center
As the first in China to focus on drone application skills, the UTC training system has provided training for large enterprises and institutions such as Xinhua News Agency, China National Radio, and State Grid in recent years. The Shanghai branch of UTC, Shanghai Xuanfeng Aviation, boasts a strong team of instructors who have provided aerial photography services to many units and programs, including China Central Television, SMG Documentary Channel, The Pillars of a Great Power", and "Crossing Shanghai". The Shanghai branch base has an exclusive drone training ground of 56,000 square meters and an unmanned aerial vehicle flight isolation airspace with a height of 100 meters and a radius of 1000 meters.

Outputs
Learn UAV principles, design innovative aircraft, assemble engineering-grade drones, and ultimately complete engineering-grade UAVs for precision flying around obstacles and engineering innovation challenges.
Feedbacks
I gained a lot from assembling UAVs. Some things must be tried personally to understand and benefit from the experience. Through the assembly, I learned about the principles of UAV composition. I also benefited greatly from theoretical classes and programming. It was my first time experiencing programming, and I was pleasantly surprised. I learned a lot in theory, such as the uses of UAVs, the requirements of different UAV models, and how to operate them. This was my first time editing, choosing music, connecting images, adjusting pixels, and selecting equipment. The experience exceeded my expectations, and the teachers were responsible and patient in answering our questions. I'm very happy these past few days! It has been very rewarding!

The UAV programming course left a deep impression on me. When programming, you need to set instructions for the UAV. First, there is a takeoff setting button. After clicking start, the UAV can take off. After takeoff, you also need to set which direction to move forward, how much to turn, control the altitude, clear obstacles, and finally automatically land at the destination. My suggestion for the future development of UAVs is whether it is possible to develop a type of UAV specifically for areas with dense buildings, such as city centers and commercial streets. These UAVs should be able to automatically avoid obstacles during flight or aerial photography, circling buildings for shooting.

My favorite part was assembling the UAV. We learned from the inefficiency of previous model-making experiences and quickly and reasonably arranged the division of labor to avoid situations where everyone was doing the same thing together. I was mainly responsible for assembling the mechanical arm and rotor. Assembling the UAV from scratch gave me a strong sense of achievement, which was once again reflected during the later test flight activities. Seeing the UAV I assembled go from a box of parts to take off, flying successfully, and landing, I felt very proud!
