Drone Training Courses

We offer four drone training courses through our sister company Drone School UK.

The first two courses are aimed at the fun and recreational drone flyers.

Drone School UK have a half day drone taster course and a full day course flying the latest DJI Drones at six flying locations around the U.K. These two courses are also attended by experience days customers of Red Letter Days and Into the Blue.

The half day course is ideal for people who are new to drones or just want to fly them for fun.

The Full day course allows our students to fly different DJI Drones and experiment with the cameras. This course a good experience if you are thinking about becoming a commercial drone pilot, but are not 100% sure and want to practice flying.

Specialist Drone Training Courses

Our other two courses are aimed at more experienced DJI Drone pilots who want to take their flying skills and aerial photography to the next level.

One Day Litchi Flying Course

Litchi is the go to alternative to the DJI Go and DJI Go4 app, as it offers a range of intelligent flight modes (automated flying) that is a lot more sophisticated than the DJI Go app.

We have used the Litchi app for 16 months and now much prefer it to the DJI Go and GO 4 apps, using it for over 80% of our flying.

We have developed and perfected a wide selection of exciting video shots using the Litchi app, which we teach on the course.

On this course we concentrate on the practical use and applications for Litchi in many different commercial video shoots.

The Litchi Mission Hub sits in the cloud and allows you to program your flight path in Google Earth on your Mac/PC before you even leave home. The missions you save on the Hub are synched across all you devices. When you arrive on site, just load the pre-programmed mission and hit Start.

The Litchi app offers five autonomous flying modes, four of which are aimed at video, Waypoint, Orbit, Track Focus and one a still images – Pano.

In the training we cover all flying modes in detail and then fly each mode. Each student gets to create and fly missions.

One of the main benefits of Litchi is it can take a lot of the stress out of flying a specific flight path and allow the pilot to concentrate on getting the best possible video footage.
