European Drone School
n°1 professional drone school in Europe

In the European Regulations, SORA has been chosen as the official Risk Analysis tool to be used by all pilots and operators.

Completing a SORA analysis is a long and complicated process.

We will teach you how to keep your bearings in SORA, where SORA comes from, and how to complete it. We will also go through practical examples and use cases, and of course exercises.

Photogrammetry is a technique that is widely used by the UAV community. It allows to reproduce an object or a surface in 3D by taking photos from all angles, and compiling them through a software. Precision can be up to 0,5cm.

This technique is used by surveyors, but also by mining companies to measure mineral stocks, calculating volumes, preparing terrain for heavy works, etc.

Our training sessions is both practical and theoretical. We will provide all gear needed apart from a computer (you will need one). Our facilities are located in a privatized airspace that allows us to literally push the door and fly, thus scanning targets with drones and analyzing the data later indoor.

Buying a thermal camera is easy, but can you really use it as a professional ?

During this training session, we will put the accent on using a thermal camera on a UAV, how to analyse the data, what thermal camera to choose, how to calibrate your gear, etc…

Drones now have amazingly performant cameras that can be super compact too. But can you really work that DJI X7 ? Can you integrate Mavic 2’s shots into a TV commercial ? Do you know how to manage ISO ? Should you shoot with manual or auto focus ? Do you know what H264 is ?

Our teachers are experienced camera operators, with amazing stories to tell from cinema and world class series shootings, and lots of tips and tricks to share with you, in order to add value to that UAV you have standing there.

Multispectral cameras are used to detect invisible parts of the light spectrum. We are mainly using these to analyse the hygrometric state of plantations, or to detect some illnesses in plants.

We will teach you how to select the right tool for your use, how to make use of it and how to analyze data.

Did you know we published a book about meteorology ? It was written by one of our colleagues and takes from A to Z about weather and meteorology, with examples applied to aeronautics. We are very proud of this. It is being translated from French to English and will come out soon.

Meteorology is not an easy matter, but our teachers really take you by the hand to explain how clouds are formed, what is fog, what is the difference between the northern and southern hemisphere, the Coriolis effect, etc. the list is long, but the subject is truly captivating.

Coming soon.

We are waiting for the European Regulations to be more advanced.

Have you ever flown an octocopter ? A UAV weighing over 25 kg ? Have you ever had to fly fast and close to the ground ? Have you ever had a motor failure ? A GPS failure ?

This training session goes further, and trains you about flying UAV’s in complicated situation, close to obstacles, with interference, with random failures, impossible landings, etc.

This session also covers communication between pilot and cameraman, with and without walkie talkies, what language you should use, what level of precision you need.

We will put you under stress, blocking your senses, force you to recover from harsh situations, but we will be there to cover you if you break something ! And of course we will use our gear.

With the European Regulations coming, our UAV activity will be divided in categories depending on the risk of our flights. The OPEN category is the lowest risk category.

In order to be registered as pilot in the OPEN category, you will need to pass an online examination, and this examination can be paid or free depending on where you live.

Our school proposes a classroom training session in order to prepare you as much as possible to passing the OPEN examination, but also to prepare you as a pilot.

We will teach you a little bit of theory, and then go out on the training field and teach you as much as we can on the subject that interest you. Of course, we will go over safety measures, how to take off and land without braking anything, etc.

IMPORTANT : an online training is provided by your country, that is European law. Our classroom training session is proposed as a complement and/or accompaniment

With the European Regulations coming, our UAV activity will be divided in categories depending on the risk of our flights. The SPECIFIC category is the middle risk class category.

In order to be registered as pilot in the SPECIFICcategory, you will need to pass an online examination, and go through a certified training center to assess your sills are sufficient.

Standard Scenarios are a set of rules that will allow you, if you stay inside the limits of these rules, to execute missions without having to request special flight authorization.

This training is mostly practical. We will go on the field and help you prepare for the existing standard scenarios.

Each training is for one STS, multiple STS can be combined on demand.

At the end of the training session, if you pass Skill Assessment, you will be rewarded with an official Skill Assessment Document.

coming soon...

In this training session, we will go through an extensive set of skills ranging from PID tuning, to weight and balance, UAV configuration on DJI, Mikrokopter and Pixhawk, prop balancing, soldering, etc.

We will also enjoy using the prototyping lab provided by ID2Move, where we will practice 3D printing and CNC cutting.

coming soon...

We are proud to say some of our friends have won world class FPV championships. These guys know what they are talking about, and they will share their experience with you.

This amazing workshop covers how to assemble the best FPV racer for your needs, FPV practical skills, training indoor and outdoor, a bit of racing for fun, and some insights about the FPV championships.
