Sky's the limit: Use the big planet tracking thing. Give students the rate that planets move on the thing. Have students use the rate and take geocache pictures of where the planets will be on certain dates. Have student using the planet tracking thing as a XY axis for photographing geocaches at certain coordinated found by doing mathematics.

Drones can fly to gps coordinates. This can be coupled geocaching and math ideas. Drones take pictures of geocash Students will be given points and have to find the midpoint for a geocache. Students will be give two corner points of a 345 Triangle and have to find the third corner. http://new-to-teaching.blogspot.com/2013/04/integrating-geocaching-into-mathematics.html

Have a large area set out as a X and Y axis. Set markers with a GPS at certain points

Students will use a drone to find what X equals.

Have students use equations and values of X to find Y. Give student part of a geometric figure and have them find the other corners of the figure Algebra geocaching by drone Intersecting lines by drone. Find the point made by two intersecting lines.

Have students practice with the GPS on foot Then drone programming competition for finding similar points.

Error rates of Drones http://handsonmath.blogspot.com/2014/09/estimating-error-rates-plotting.html

Use proportions to find a spot with a drone or similar triangles.

Drone Pi How the student a coil of something, but they can't stretch it out. Have them fly the drone the length of the coil.

Drone Exponents Have students find Y when given exponential equation both postivie and fractional exponents

Give students a pattern that represents a equation, Have students find Y for a certain X of the equation.

Math in a drone http://www.articlesfactory.com/articles/autos/logic-and-math-for-rc-cars.html

Use Acids and bases to produce a gas. Measure the volume of the gas. Draw a graph of how much vinegar is used to produce a gas. Have student use the graph to extrapolate a higher amount of vinegar. Students will fly the drone away this amount and take a picture at this safe distance. A poisonous gas is produced by mixing two chemicals but after a certain time it breaks down. This gas spreads out just like carbon dioxide. A certain volume of CO2 spreads out at a certain rate. Use baking soda and vinegar to find the
