Executive Summary:

The UAS Basic Pilots Course is  32-hours of instruction designed specifically and ONLY for agencies that already have an established UAS program and are flying missions with protocols and a comprehensive policy in place. The curriculum focuses on piloting skills and training in UAS safety and general UAS program operations. The class begins with an online FAA test preparation course culminating with an in-class test review (FAA test fee included).

Students will:

  • Prepare for the FAA UAG 107 test (test fee included in tuition)
  • Explain UAS safety management strategies and safety culture
  • Demonstrate preflight and emergency safety procedures
  • Demonstrate UAV flight setup and pre-flight
  • Demonstrate UAV piloting skills in basic public safety mission-sets
  • Demonstrate UAV piloting skills in a competition course, under stress

Each student will receive a minimum of eight hours of flight instruction and log at least 3 hours of actual flight time with a UAV as a member of a UAS deployment team. All instruction will be consistent with the FAA’s current rules and regulations. Students will be prepared for and schedule to take the  FAA’s Part 107 Examination. Successful students will return to their respective organizations as trained operators.

The Regional Training Center (The RTC) is not affiliated with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The FAA Remote Pilot Airman Certificate is achieved by passing the FAA Aeronautical Knowledge Test. PSI Examination Services now controls all FAA Part 107 testing. The RTC staff will facilitate and assist students in scheduling their FAA examination using an RTC-issued coupon code.
