This is a “treasure trove”of information and just scratches the surface. After completing their hands on mapping training in Dallas,Texas I can testify that The Drone U staff exceeded my expectations and are the industry leading trainers for the independent service provider.

My first introduction into photogrammetry was at the San Diego Mapping class put on by The Drone U. As it was my first look at the material, I felt that I needed more information about the subject and decided to attend a workshop sponsored by Pix4D. Walking away from the class, I felt that I had a decent understanding of the subject. However, after listening to a recent episode of the Ask DroneU podcast, I decided to attend the Las Vegas class.
What would prompt a person to take an introductory mapping class three times? The obvious answer is, because of the amount of information about the topic is so immense, it is impossible to retain everything, and a second or even third look is required, but why the Drone U instead of an additional Pix4D sponsored workshops? Because the training is more hands on.
I am not discounting the training from Pix4D in any way, the Pix4D workshop was very well structured and very thorough. But and this is the only complaint, you do not get any hands-on training with regards to data collection. With the Drone U course, you are given instruction in using the various autonomous flight applications and training in the field for proper use of your drone during the capture process. You also can observe the flight operations of the other students and instructors.

The online drone mapping boot camp was full of practical knowledge. Compared to the Pix4D class at their office in San Francisco, I learned so much more. You guys gave lot of real life instances and took my knowledge from 10 to 80 in matter of 3 days. Paul is an amazing trainer and would like to thank him for all the tips and tricks he gave us.

Thank you for a great experience. It was both challenging and inspirational. I discovered a lot about myself in the process of learning both the drone and the mapping software. I feel like I improved my skills as a remote pilot and started on a path to a new product for Ready To Fly to deliver. I hope and strive to one day be at your level of drone expertise. I truly enjoyed the mapping course and I know I need to practice, practice and practice some more. Your energy and passion for the drone industry is inspiring. In the process of the workshop, I met a lot of new friends and discovered and employed a whole new set of skills. It was a excellent workshop. Keep rocking!

You folks do such a superior job educating people compared to all other drone educational entities. My experiences (business boot camp, Fly-In & mapping class) have been the best investment of my time and money that I have made in a long, long time. The people met and relationships formed during those events are truly treasured. I have never been happier to give an absolutely outstanding company my money as I am to the DroneU every month- worth every penny.
Again, THANK YOU!!! for the loyalty offer. I applaud and appreciate the time, effort, depth of knowledge and encouragement! that you folks put into the podcasts, website, webinars, in-person classes and Facebook groups. DroneU is a model enterprise that nurtures the drone community through hard work and a personal commitment to relationships.
