There are hundreds, if not thousands, of different drones you could pick up when you’re looking to have some fun in the air. If you’re less worried about videotaping all your aerial acrobats than you are about the fun, you’ll be interested in the Force Clyers DIY Fly n’ Drive Building Block Drone. The principle is simple enough: combine LEGO-style (it’s compatible with all major building block brands) building with a drone apparatus that supports both flying and driving. Originally designed for STEM development, this drone can probably teach you a few things about physics, too. So what can you learn? Everything from aerodynamics to weight distribution. More importantly, you get to actually build your own drone with a flight time of 10-12 minutes and a range of 50–75 meters. Playing with a drone is one of the coolest ways to waste some time, but it’s even better when it’s a drone of your own creation.
