DJI Combat Drone Operator Training Course
TRAINING COURSE FOR COMBAT OPERATORS OF STABILIZED MULTIROTOR UAV

Course Objective

The course is designed to train operators of stabilized multirotor UAV from the DJI series for their effective use in high-risk environments, including active combat operations. The main objectives include: Developing stable skills in operating stabilized multirotor UAV, Learning the principles of their employment in reconnaissance and strike missions, Working with payload-release mechanisms, Processing video data, and Integrating FPV systems within mobile units.

Description

The course is developed in accordance with modern requirements for the use of UAV in reconnaissance and strike missions. The theoretical part covers the principles of operating stabilized multirotor UAV, The specifics of their use in tactical environments, Interaction with ground units, Fundamentals of operational planning, Processing and analysis of video data, As well as counter-EW measures and concealment techniques.
The practical part includes training flights using stabilized multirotor UAV, Work with payload-release systems, Execution of reconnaissance and strike missions, As well as practicing covert movement, Pre-flight preparation, and execution of night missions.
