F-Drones and Victory Drones have announced a three-week intensive engineering course on the technical operation of UAVs. The training will take place in person in Kyiv and is open exclusively to military personnel, according to Victory Drones.

The course is free of charge. The programme covers:

• FPV drone architecture, soldering and power systems;
• radio communications, antennas and video signals;
• working with Betaflight and ArduPilot;
• optical stabilisation boards, data logging, PID tuning and filtering;
• 3D printing, comprehensive fault diagnosis and repairs.

The training will place considerable emphasis on field practice. To participate, applicants must first complete an online engineering course and pass an entrance assessment. The organisers will provide details of these stages after registration.

Participants will also receive certificates upon completion, which they can use to obtain a military occupational speciality (MOS) through an external assessment.
