RPL – Multirotor

The Remote Pilot Licence (RPL) – Multirotor programme prepares participants to operate multirotor drones legally, safely, and competently within regulated airspace. This programme is designed to build practical pilot capability while ensuring strong understanding of aviation rules, operational safety, and responsible drone use.

Regulatory-aligned training for professional multirotor drone operations

Professional drone operations require more than flight skills. Operators must understand airspace, risk management, aircraft limitations, and regulatory obligations. The RPL – Multirotor programme provides structured training that combines theory, practical flight instruction, and assessment to prepare candidates for regulated multirotor operations. Training is delivered with a strong focus on real operational scenarios, ensuring participants are ready for commercial, institutional, or organisational drone use upon completion.
