The Level 1 Remote Pilot Certificate (RPC-L1) online course is the UK Civil Aviation Authority aligned qualification for remote pilots conducting Visual Line of Sight (VLOS) operations within the Specific Category. Designed for both new and existing remote pilots, the RPC-L1 provides a clear and modern pathway into professional UAS operations. The course focuses on building safe, compliant, and competent remote pilots, with training aligned to the principles of the UK SORA and the expectations placed on professional operators. Your journey begins with an online theory programme covering essential aviation, regulatory, and UAS operational knowledge, followed by a formal theory examination. Once the theory stage is complete, you progress to practical flight instruction to develop hands-on flying skills and operational confidence. The course concludes with a practical flight assessment that confirms your ability to plan, conduct, and conclude VLOS operations safely and professionally. Delivered by our expert training team, the RPC-L1 course forms the foundation for professional drone operations and provides a structured stepping stone towards more advanced flying privileges and higher RPC levels under the UK SORA framework.

The GVC to RPC-L1 Conversion course is the UK Civil Aviation Authority aligned pathway for existing General Visual Line of Sight Certificate holders to transition to the Level 1 Remote Pilot Certificate for Visual Line of Sight (VLOS) operations within the Specific Category. Designed specifically for experienced remote pilots, this conversion route recognises prior knowledge and competence while aligning pilots with the RPC framework. The course focuses on ensuring continued regulatory compliance and competency, with training aligned to the principles of the UK SORA and the expectations placed on professional operators. Your journey begins with an online theory programme covering essential aviation, regulatory, and UAS operational knowledge relevant to RPC-L1. Unlike the full RPC-L1 course, no formal theory examination is required as part of this conversion route. Once the theory learning is complete, you progress directly to practical flight instruction to refresh and standardise flying skills and operational behaviours. The course concludes with a practical flight assessment that confirms your ability to plan, conduct, and conclude VLOS operations safely and professionally. Delivered by our expert training team, the GVC to RPC-L1 Conversion course provides a streamlined transition to the RPC framework and forms a structured stepping stone towards more advanced flying privileges and higher RPC levels under the UK SORA framework.
