FLIGHT TEST LOCATIONS TO SUIT YOU
While most of our drone training courses can be completed completely online, some more advanced courses will require you to do a short flight test.
Studying with Coptrz Academy gives you access to the largest number of flight test centres across the UK including Northern Ireland. That means you won’t be travelling long distances to take a 1.5 hour long flight assessment (if required as part of your training).
