Join a network of dedicated professionals committed to growth and operational readiness.
[ PROGRAM ]
Pilot training course
The course is built as a clear progression: from fundamentals and simulator drills to obstacle flights, long-range work, and current operational methods used by modern FPV teams.
Theoretical training
A strong knowledge base covering the essentials required to perform mission tasks effectively.
Training in the Obrii simulator
The Obrii simulator recreates real combat and weather conditions for safer, more realistic practice.
Theory and simulator exam
The exam covers 10 theory disciplines as well as free-flight control and piloting proficiency.
Obstacle flights and target engagement
Students train precise control in tight environments, working through gates, route sections, low-altitude maneuvers, and controlled attack runs in scenarios designed to reflect real mission pressure.
Flights up to 10 km
This phase develops route discipline, orientation, power management, and stable control over longer distances, which is essential for deeper mission profiles and long-range target approach.
Fiber-optic FPV training
A dedicated module covers fiber-optic FPV systems, including equipment setup, launch preparation, practical handling, tactical use cases, and the operational trade-offs of this connection type.

[ DISCIPLINES ]
Training curriculum
These disciplines cover more than flight mechanics alone. Our FPV drone courses in Kyiv include navigation, mission thinking, system setup, communications, and the general field questions that turn technical skill into usable operational judgment.
All about UAVs
Multirotor platform types, system structure, controls, power management, batteries, payload logic, and the fundamentals of how an FPV setup works.
Land navigation
Navigation, maps, coordinates, terrain reference points, route awareness, and practical field orientation for outbound and return paths.
Combat tactics
Mission scenarios, crew-role logic, target approach patterns, and decision-making under pressure in realistic tactical conditions.
UAS setup and configuration
Hands-on work with hardware, component connections, baseline software setup, pre-flight checks, and common fault scenarios.
Mission planning
Sortie preparation, route logic, risk review, fallback planning, weather awareness, and timing decisions before launch.
Communications and radio waves
Military radio procedures, radio-wave fundamentals, interference awareness, EW-related factors, and practical ways to preserve controllability.
[ FAQ ]
Frequently asked questions
Here are the most common questions about training, course structure, and what to expect from FPV drone courses in Kyiv at UIB Academy.
Who are the courses for?
The program is suitable for complete beginners as well as learners who already have flight time but want structured training and a stronger operational foundation.
Do I need my own drone?
No. At the start, it is more important to understand the logic of training, complete theory, and build control discipline on simulators and training equipment.
How long does the course take?
The full program includes more than 60 hours across theory, simulator work, examination, obstacle flights, long-range flights, and a dedicated fiber-optic FPV module.
What is included in the curriculum?
Students cover theory, land navigation, combat tactics, system configuration, mission planning, communications, and multiple stages of practical FPV flight training.
Where does training take place?
Training is based in Kyiv and combines classroom work with practical flight sessions where students train maneuvering, control, and task execution in realistic conditions.
Is fiber-optic FPV included?
Yes. The program includes a separate module on fiber-optic FPV, covering equipment setup, handling, tactical application, and the practical limitations of that format.
How do I apply or ask a question?
The easiest way is to use the website form. We will contact you, clarify your goals and background, and suggest the most relevant training format.
Why does combat experience matter for instructors?
It helps students learn not only how to fly, but how to think through pressure, avoid common mistakes, and connect technical training with real mission execution.
