Course Structure
Your first day dives into the core concepts of drone technology and UAS operations. You’ll explore everything from the fundamentals of drone-powered solutions to the detailed rules and regulations established by the UAE DCAA and GCAA. With engaging discussions on aerodynamics, weather effects, and emergency procedures, you’ll also cover essential topics like crew resource management and pre-flight maintenance, laying a solid theoretical foundation for safe drone operation.
The second day shifts to hands-on learning with both flight simulator and practical field training sessions. Here, you’ll practice basic flight controls and maneuvers in a simulated environment before moving outdoors to execute takeoffs, hovering, and landings. The day also features simulated emergency scenarios and sense-and-avoid exercises, ensuring you develop the critical skills needed for confident and safe drone operation in diverse conditions.
On the final day, you’ll advance your piloting skills with more complex flight maneuvers such as circling, figure eights, and altitude adjustments. You’ll engage in full mission executions, including data collection and post-flight inspections. The day will conclude with a flight test designed to assess your competence and readiness for DCAA certification, ensuring you’re fully prepared to operate commercially.
