This Course.
Learn from our advanced flight instructors who operate commercially in real world operations from Visual light mapping to RADAR and LiDAR imaging, Thermal / FLIR Ops, through Agri surveys, mapping, crop control, inspections - buildings and wildlife. You name it, a suitably qualified Pilot can perform the task. This course delivers at the leading edge of the unmanned industry giving you the skills you need with either our advanced RPA or your own. Targeting niche, specialised markets in this area with technology advancing so quickly is where the most profitable RPA work is found - especially for larger organisations and government bodies whose demand for pilots able to perform this level of work is outstripping supply. 

A one day course with one of our senior instructors involved in the industry commercially, we'll show you how to safely map terrain or objects using DroneDeploy, DJI Pilot, Lytchi, GSPro and others and interpret that data.
