In addition to the Heliguy PfCO course, several alternative training courses are available. These include the following:
New Pilot Event – A free of charge training day from Heliguy in collaboration with DJI. This monthly event gives those new to drones and hobbyist pilots an insight into the DJI range, commercial drone operation and a chance to get some hands-on experience with a drone in our flight cage.
Drone Video Editing – This course provides a beginners’ guide to capturing and editing aerial footage from your drone. The course covers making sure you have the right drone settings before takeoff, right up to the finishing effects on your videos.
Emergency Service Training – Custom-made training for any emergency services operation. Each session is based entirely on the needs of the operation.
PfCO Adoption – If you’ve completed a section of your PfCO process elsewhere or have a pilot’s licence, we will cover everything you need to receive your permissions for commercial drone operation.
