Our home in Maidenhead is just to the north of the town centre, conveniently located near to the M4 and A404.
Your lesson will begin in a well known coffee shop with an overview in the theory and legal aspects of drones before the short trip to our flying site. See the area from a totally new aerial perspective during the hands on practical flying session. Start manually and then progress to explore some of DJI’s “Intelligent Flight Modes”.
Our lessons are always one-to-one with one of our expert, fully PFCO-qualified and insured drone pilots. In an hour, we can help you to be a safe drone pilot. After two hours, you will come away knowing:
- The less well known but important features of the DJI Go App
- What to focus on when you are flying
- Our unique 4:4:3 methodology for flying safely and enjoyably
- The ten most common reasons people crash, and how to avoid them
- How to answer the crucial questions “Can I fly here” and “Should I fly here”
- And of course, you will have done plenty of hands-on flying
- Book a two-hour lesson and bring a friend or family member free of charge

Fly Like a Pro, Film Like a Pro
We want all of our clients to be able to Fly Like a Pro, and Film Like a Pro. Having a lesson with us is the best start you can make on your drone adventure. We all know that to learn a foreign language, you are going to need some lessons. The same is true of drones. DJI are right when they say that anyone can fly one of their drones straight out of the box. But we meet very few self-taught drone pilots who fly as well, as safely, or as effectively as we can show you how to. Whether you are a complete beginner, or a seasoned drone pilot, you will enjoy your flying far more having had a lesson; confident that you have the skills and knowledge you need to fly safely and effectively every time. That is the crucial first step to getting the most spectacular video and still photos with your drone. And that is the lasting joy of flying a drone.
Lessons are generally split roughly 50:50 between theory and practical, hands-on flying. This can be adapted to suit your particular interests: whether you are more interested in hands-on flying, or in understanding the DJI Go app, or knowing more about the route to becoming a Commercial Drone Pilot, for example.
During your lesson, you can fly your own drone (we support all DJI and Yuneec drones), or you can fly one of our DJI Phantom 4s.
Note that drones are not waterproof. So we cannot fly in the rain. If it looks as though it might rain on the date and time of your lesson, we will contact you a few days beforehand to reschedule your lesson. If we cannot find an alternative date and time to suit you, we will give you a full refund.
Buy a drone worth more than £750 from us, and get a one-hour flying lesson, worth £120, free of charge.
Not sure about buying a drone? Come and fly one of our DJI Phantom4s. If you buy a drone within 30 days of having a lesson with us, we’ll deduct the £120 cost of a one-hour lesson from the price of the drone.
Chris Ross –
Had a great lesson with Tony. It was great to get some good base knowledge before the practical part of the lesson. There is a lot to know and Tony took me through it in a way that made it interesting and understandable. The practical flying was great, it’s a great location. It was great to get confidence before I bought my own drone. I’d highly recommend Tony as an instructor and having a lesson.
