DJI's latest drone can't fly... but is built like a tank!

Meet the DJI RoboMaster S1 - which has now available in Europe.



Best known for its camera drones, DJi is continuing to branch out into new product areas. It now already dominates the gimbal stablizer market, and is making a name for itself in the action camera market... and now it is making programmable robots.

The RoboMaster S1 has been on sale in North America for a little whitle, but now this strange device that looks like a bomb disposal unit will be available in Europe. It features lots of the same features as its best-selling drones - in that it allows remote-controlled movement, it can take pictures and video, and has a built-in gimbal. But it can't fly.

The RoboMaster S1 is primarily designed to give new users an easy introduction to AI, engineering, and robotics. The S1 is short for Step One... and it is exactly the sort of toy that we'd love to see in every child's classroom.



Building the RoboMaster and customizing it is part of the educational journey.
