Mike,
It looks like you have an awesome chance to introduce these to your local squadron.
I was Aerospace Officer in our local CAP squadron years ago. Mainly that meant teaching "aerospace stuff" to the cadets in the Squadron. There was not the opportunity to do UAVs back then, but we did do rocketry, something not many of the squadrons did in our state. Having said that, I believe they would really enjoy and appreciate your efforts.
The DJIs are a great choice for outdoors. I have a stripped P2 and Camrise offers the P2 via Amazon. I suggest that because they have a good platform with the DJI and yet they don't have to pay for the camera equipment if they are not interested.
Enjoy - their enthusiasm is contagious and you might just get hooked (er, enlisted).
