Thermal drone training

[Skinny Pete]

Can anyone recommend a certified training course for the use of a drone with thermal capabilities ( so night and day flying). This is for wildlife monitoring on private land. Happy to travel for a good training course but Ideally southern England.

I think the best trainers are all in the Ukraine currently

I’m currently half way through a GVC course with Heliguy. (https://www.heliguy.com/). Welcome to drop me a DM if you want.

Practice practice practice! It’s not hard once you learn it, although it sucks to crash an expensive unit.

I don't know that they do training courses, but you might want to have a look at the webite of BH Wildlife Consultancy, who specialise in deer drone surveys.

They recently gave a presentation at the Forestry Commission day on managing deer. The presentation was both fascinating and informative, and I would think changed the perception of many in terms of what can be achieved through the use of drones.

As much as the flying of the drones themselves, they also had some interesting slides on how they conduct the surveys and utilise the data that is captured.

BHWC (Ben Harrower) has recently launched Training | DroneWild do do training a camera drone supply.

Other trainers might be more generic of course whereas Ben's team will show you how to use the unit for deer management
