Welcome to Drone U!
If you're here, you're probably trying to decide whether to invest in Drone U as your drone training school. So, allow us to tell you a little bit about us to help you in your decision-making process.
Much More Than A Drone Training School...
Although we are one of the world’s largest, most thorough online drone training schools, offering thousands of hours of helpful, organized content, this may honesty not be our greatest value to you. In fact, we are often told that our greatest tool isn’t even something we’ve created as a course at all. That’s because it’s our extremely active, helpful, and committed online community of drone pilots that are constantly asking and answering questions. The ability to sharpen each other as drone pilots is alone worth being a member of Drone U.
And for one low monthly investment, you not only get access to the community, but you get EVERYTHING on our training platform, including over 30 separate courses!
These courses, videos, podcast, blogs, and resources are all specifically designed to help you hone your piloting skills, grow a business, master flight operations, advance your service offerings, and take your photography and videography to next levels.

We Lower Your Learning Curve, Saving You Time, Money & Frustration...
As a drone pilot yourself, you’ve surely seen first-hand how fast this industry continues to evolve and change. In order to stay ahead of this accelerated curve (and your competition), you must make sure you’re consuming the most helpful and impactful information that will simultaneously lower your learning curve with equal speed. This is exactly what we’ve worked diligently to create here at Drone U, a thriving community with a powerful training platform that is packed full of expert courses, tools, and resources created by drone pilots for drone pilots so you can learn efficiently, at your pace, without needlessly wasting time and money.
We're Your "Behind The Scenes" Team...
Maybe even more (even most) importantly, Drone U’s community will help you stay inspired, motivated, and engaged. Let’s face it, discouragement and overwhelm are a part of life, especially if you are running a small business. That’s why we believe wholeheartedly that it’s not just about taking a class and moving on to figure the rest out by yourself. Instead, it’s about truly retaining the information your learning through continual practice and engagement so you can best utilize and apply the resources of Drone U and our community while you’re in the field. Look at us as your “behind the scenes” team, the place you can always go to for insight, clarification, strength, momentum, encouragement, and ideas so you can keep progressing forward.
Training When You Need It, The Way You Need It...
This is why we say Drone U isn’t just an online drone school, but more of a hands-on, in-person flight school boasting an incredible community of people, pilots, courses, and resources.
So, if you’re looking for face-to-face, one-on-one training also then check out our flagship Flight Mastery class, as one example. This training will help you gain more confidence and experience so you can overcome any emergencies you might deal with in the field. Plus, going through this training will also qualify you for an educational discount on your drone insurance! What training can you say actually pays for itself over time?! And know that all our in-person trainings will give you the practical tools and belief you need to go back and implement all that you’ve learned.
Plus, as a Drone U member, you’ll get additional discounts to any of our in-person trainings, any time you need them!
Don’t forget that you can also get your Part 107 certificate from us as well. The value of our Part 107 training is unlike anywhere else because you also get access to EVERYTHING on our training platform, including the community! As fellow pilots, we know how important this is because passing the FAA exam does not equal a successful business. You must understand operations, habits, and routines, and how to turn those into repeatable, scalable systems that create efficient workflows, maximum revenue, and minimal inefficiency so you work smarter, not harder.
So, whether you’re just getting started or you really want to dive into a new revenue stream for your business, Drone U is the right place for you!
So, what are you waiting for?!
Get into Drone U today, get started on our courses, get engaged with the community, get all the resources you need, and get your insurance discounts right now!

– DavidDo I have to commit to a certain time frame?
Nope, not at all. You can upgrade, cancel or pause your account anytime and for any reason. It is simple, quick and easy to come and go as you need to. If you cancel before the end of the billing period, you’ll retain access until that period is over.
How often do you release new content?
Every week! We continue to release new training videos, reviews, resources and anything else we can think of that would help our community. If you want more training on something then you can just let us know and we often work to get that done for everyone.
Is your content more focused on beginner or advanced pilots?
Both, and then some. We try to do all we can to make it helpful to anybody at any point in their pilot growth curve. Our goal is to help you by lowering your learning curve, saving you money by avoiding costly mistakes and getting you to the next levels in your piloting faster than you can do it on your own. Learn from our mistakes and so many other expert drone pilots, editors, business operators, enthusiasts, videographers, photographers, etc. You name it, they’re in the community.
Do you have a money back guarantee?
Our site has a ton of valuable information. If you want to join and check it out for a month that’s perfectly fine with us. But it wouldn’t be very fair, now would it, to just let you just go through the site, benefit from all the helpful info and then just cancel for nothing. We’ve committed to do all we can to provide you with the absolute best, most important to know info out there so you can lower your learning curve, saving you time and money. Trust us, we’ll save you far more than you’ll ever spend with Drone U.
Why do you have a monthly charge?
Because we feel this is the best, most flexible, focused and affordable way to learn. We hate models that charge by the class or resource. We want to give you access to it all, for one low price and for as long as you want it. In our case, you don’t get what you pay for…you get waaaaaaaaaay more.
What’s the big deal about “community”?
You will learn more from like-minded people and from those actually doing what they’re teaching than you ever can by attending a one-off class or on your own. Our community is extremely active and full of experts and enthusiasts who want to help each other get better. Trust us because we’ve been there, when you’re investing monthly to (in part) be in a community, you will find higher caliber pilots, more experts, an obvious desire to help others and far more applicable training.
