A drone backpack includes a housing with a harness that attaches to a main body of a drone without modification of the drone. A boom couples with the harness to position a display module in a field of view of a forward-facing camera of the drone. A compute component is located within the housing and includes at least one processor and memory storing machine-readable instructions that are executable by the processor to output information on a screen of the display module. The information is captured by the forward-facing camera of the drone and included in a live video feed transmitted from the drone. The backpack may also include an effector, controllable via the compute component sensing a light status of the drone, and one or more sensors. The backpack augments the drone to enable one or more of a combat game, aerial labelling, low-cost one-time use, and STE(A)M.
