Program
3 modules, 83 academic hours, 8 days
The program is designed step by step — from understanding components to real flights outdoors. Each module ends with a tangible result.
01
16 academic hrs
Theory + simulator
FPV drone anatomy
An introductory module establishing the critical foundation required to prevent operational errors. It delivers a comprehensive understanding of the entire drone system—not by merely listing components, but by mastering how they integrate and function in unison.
What you'll learn
How motors, batteries, flight controllers, video transmission, and radio links work
Drone physics and flight logic
TKA regulations and A1/A3 exam basics
First hands-on time with the "Liftoff" simulator
Tools and equipment
FPV simulator on professional computers
Training controller with FPV goggles
Demo drones for disassembly and analysis
Module outcome: you understand how an FPV drone works, can analyse and choose components, and are ready to build a real drone.
02
24 academic hrs
Hands-on work/soldering
Drone assembly and configuration
You independently build a professional 7" FPV drone from the very first screw — in a soldering classroom with professional equipment and an instructor by your side.
What the work covers
Soldering technique and connecting components according to a diagram
• Flight controller configuration and parameter tuning
Setting up the video transmission and radio link system
First test power-up and readiness for flight
Tools and equipment
A professional soldering classroom with individual workstations
A 7" FPV drone component kit that stays with you
Configuration software (Betaflight and others)
Module outcome: you have a fully working 7" FPV drone that you built yourself, and you know how to maintain, repair, and upgrade it.
03
43 academic hrs
Practical flights
Practical FPV flights
Three stages leading from the simulator to a real outdoor flight. Sessions run in small groups, with an instructor beside you watching your flight and correcting mistakes in real time.
Three stages, one after another
First stage: "Liftoff" simulator - control logic, reaction, coordination
Second stage: "Whoop"-type drones in the hangar - stable control and an obstacle course
Third stage: flights in outdoor conditions - wind, open space, and changing scenarios
Tools and equipment
"Liftoff" simulators for professional training
"Whoop"-type drones for indoor spaces
The drone you built for outdoor flights
A hangar in Vilnius with an obstacle course
Module outcome: you fly an FPV drone independently in various conditions, receive a DTS certificate, and are ready for the A1/A3 exam.
