UAV MANUFACTURERS TRAINING

To obtain a RPC or UAV CC, UAV manufacturers training is required on the type of UAV you propose to operate. The purpose of the manufacturers training is to ensure you understand the construction of a UAV and obtain sufficient knowledge of its flight characteristics to fly it safely.

UAV MANUFACTURERS TRAINING

To obtain a RPC or UAV CC,  you are required to submit proof to CASA that you have completed manufacturers training on the type of UAV you propose to operate.(eg Multirotar). The purpose of the manufacturers training is to ensure you understand the construction of the UAV and obtain sufficient knowledge of its flight characteristics to fly it safely.

Our UAV Manufactures Training

Our UAV manufacturers training consists of 7 parts and is designed to ensure you have  a thorough understand of the UAV to operate it safely. On completion of our UAV manufactures training we provided you with a certificate.
