The course was well worth my time. It provided a great opportunity to learn about modern UAV system design and operation; UAVs are much more than R/C aircraft and deserve special consideration. Considerable time was allocated each day to flying aircraft on the simulator and flying a small UAV on site.
Spain
Although the times we are living it has been an amazing experience, an unbeatable professional environment, and an impeccable training that without any doubt I recommend it to anyone interested in this sector.

Jordi Santacana, in addition to being the best pilot in the world, is a simple and warm person. Professors Albert and Marc are great professionals who have helped me learn all the concepts of the course in an excellent way. And the instructor-student relationship has been unbeatable. It is noticeable that they are experts. I completely recommend BCN Drone Center, it is the best center to learn to fly.
