Operational considerations.
Flying stick time so as to better control the Unmanned Aircraft (UA).
Know the course of action in times of emergency. Eg. UA malfunction.
Best practices in managing the fleet of UA.
Situational ground awareness when operating the UA.
Controlling the UA in different orientation.
The candidates would be coached under highly experienced instructors and provided with many opportunities to fly and train. Closer to the end of course, instructors would assess skill level of candidates and provide opportunities for the practical mock assessment.
Practical Assessment
