TRAINING DESCRIPTION

Small unmanned aircraft are complex systems that, despite their simplicity and numerous built-in safety features, hold many uncertainties that can quickly lead them to the ground.

During practical training, you will learn proper flying techniques, how to react in unforeseen situations, and how to assess terrain for flight. You will be introduced to the basics of navigation and various modes of controlling an unmanned aircraft.
