Our Story
SkyBound Drones began with a vision to provide drone services across various industries. We started our operations in West Texas and Southeast New Mexico, offering drone surveys for oil and gas and environmental companies in the Permian Basin. As our surveys grew increasingly complex, we recognized the importance of providing students of all ages with the opportunity to learn about drones and explore the potential career paths available upon completing high school or college. Since then, we have been offering educational programs for schools (elementary through high school) that teach mathematics, engineering, critical thinking, data collection, and creativity, all while being engaging and entertaining for children of all ages.
