2,500+ PILOTS TRAINED, CUSTOMERS RATE 4.9 OUT OF 5 STARS
My instructor Andrew was fantastic – very knowledgeable, very patient and an overall great person. He took the time to help me understand the safety, FAA regulations, pre-flight checks and most importantly, provided valued instruction. I was nervous because my job just tapped me on the shoulder to learn how to fly a drone and Andrew gave me the confidence to fly by myself within 45 minutes.

The class was super-informative. Adam was very friendly, knowledgeable, patient, eager to answer questions and was very committed to our understanding of material, topics and issues related to drone operation. Our instruction experience exceeded our expectations. As a former teacher (M.Ed.) it was clear that there was significant thought put into what was covered, in what order and how to present the material in ways that newbies to drone operation such as myself could “get” what was being discussed and tackle flying modules with confidence and enjoyment. It was WELL worth the money/investment and would strongly recommend such instruction to prospective drone pilots.

Unbelievable value. Tom Peden was an incredible instructor and I can’t think of a way to improve his course. I went in with a minimal amount of knowledge and was very unsure of my drone and it’s operation. I feel very comfortable with the operation of the drone now and have a much better understanding of the laws, regulations and where I can/can’t fly. I can’t recommend this course enough.

Does your team need hands-on drone training?
We work with companies and organizations
An engineering team of four from Amgen needed to survey vertical structures. We set up a custom drone training with one of our Los Angeles instructors.
Southeastern Building Corporation wanted to use drones to capture aerial images of their residential and commercial construction projects. Our Nashville drone instructor trained two of their employees.
The Rutherford County GIS Department needed to survey land and infrastructure for things like development projects and flood zones. Our Nashville instructor trained three of their team members.
Fort Valley State University wanted to train 10 graduate students in their Engineering Technology Department to conduct research projects with their DJI Phantom. We built a half-day custom training with two instructors and two drones.
