How much does a drone radio operator course cost?
The drone radio operator course costs €159, making it an extremely affordable option to obtain an international certificate that enables you to work as a radio operator anywhere in Europe.
How do you obtain a drone radio operator licence?
The new European regulations state that all drone operators wishing to conduct specialist activities in the controlled airspace must be certified as a radio operator and know how to use communications in the event of an emergency.
Therefore, a radio operator licence as such is not requested but a National Radio Operator’s Certificate of Competence (ROCC) is required, which has been obtained through the pilot licence.
In all cases, with our comprehensive official professional drone pilot course you will be able to obtain all these certificates to be able to operate your drone safely.

How long does the drone radio operator course last?
The UMILES University professional drone radio operator course lasts 11 hours, of which 5 are used for theoretical training and 6 for in-person practical sessions.
This is ideal, as the AESA requires a minimum of 10 hours of mixed training before the certificates as a radio operator and communications expert can be issued. Our course is therefore highly valued.
Do I need a drone to take the course?
One of the most important aspects of our training courses is that you don’t need your own drone to receive the training. At our facilities in Pozuelo, we will provide everything you need so that you can complete the course and learn everything you need to become a professional communications and drone radio operator.
