 The drone revolution in India requires students with the correct skills, certifications and industry exposure to confidently step into one of the fastest-growing technological ecosystems in India. Today, there are about 30,000 registered drones in India operating in agriculture, infrastructure, mining, surveillance, filmmaking, logistics and urban planning. Alongside this growth, more than 22,000 Remote Pilot Certificates have been issued by DGCA-authorized training organizations.

There is an increasing demand for trained drone pilots in India. However, not all drone training institutes are up there, with regard to the quality of instruction and the experience of instructors. But FlapOne Aviation is a DGCA-approved Remote Pilot Training Organization offering recognized and career-focused drone programs.

1. DGCA-Approved Training: The Most Important Career Advantage

The most important reason that students should join FlapOne Aviation is our DGCA approval. In India, commercial drone operations are regulated by the DGCA. Many institutes offer drone piloting courses, but without DGCA recognition. In that case, students are not offered any certification confirming that they have completed a drone piloting course and can pilot a drone for commercial purposes.

2. Small RPC: A Solid Beginning

 If you enroll in the Small RPC Course, you will gain knowledge of drone regulations, flight planning, drone technology, risk assessment, and operational safety. What sets us apart from the competition is our strong focus on practical training.  At FlapOne Aviation, equal weight is given to both theory and practical aspects, certifying that students not only learn the concepts in the classroom but also know how to apply them in practice.

According to available data, there are nearly 30,000 registered drones in India, and this number is increasing by the day.  Due to this reason, there is a huge demand for drone pilots in agriculture, construction, photography, disaster response, etc.

3. Medium RPC: Going Up a Notch

 If you have already attained the Small RPC and want to go even further, then a Medium RPC Course is just perfect for you to elevate your career. As the name suggests, medium drones carry much heavier payloads than small drones; therefore, the course is conducted after the small RPC. Medium drones are primarily used for inspection, industrial monitoring and large-scale surveying.

With both certifications under your belt, you can definitely expand your growth horizon in the field of drone piloting. Employers are also more inclined to recruit the folks with both certifications and yes, their remuneration is also much better than that of a professional with only a small RPC.

4. Drone Survey & Mapping Course

The drone industry is increasingly data-driven. Organizations require specialists who can interpret aerial data.  This course will bridge this gap. Students learn aerial data acquisition techniques, terrain modeling, 3D mapping and GIS integration. These skills can be highly useful in construction, mining, agriculture, environmental monitoring, and smart city development. This course gives them a distinct advantage over people who lack these particular skills.

5. Drone Repair & Maintenance Course

Understanding the mechanics of the various kinds of drones makes you a more confident and capable operator. At FlapOne Aviation, you learn all the repairing techniques and modules at the hands of seasoned experts.

6. Train The Trainer (TTT)

At present, there are more than 22,000 certified drone pilots in India. The growing demand for drone training calls for qualified instructors. The TTT program prepares skilled drone pilots who are more interested in teaching to become certified drone instructors. Enrolled participants can pursue opportunities as trainers at aviation institutes, corporate organizations or government skill development initiatives.

By allowing students to transition from drone pilot to educator, we can help them build a bright career within the drone ecosystem.
