Drone Licence Renewal — RPC Renewal & Revalidation

Keep your certificate current with minimal downtime — a recency review, a refresher on what’s changed in the regulations, and the revalidation flight check. Trained elsewhere? You can still renew here.

The right fit

Who this course is for

Your RPC is approaching expiry — or already past it — and you need to be back on contract without losing a week.

You hold an RPC from any school — where you trained originally doesn’t matter. Your Class 3 medical and ELP must be current for revalidation — tell us when you request your quote if either has lapsed and we’ll plan around it.

Syllabus

What you’ll learn

The day

A recency review of your logbook and file, a refresher on regulation changes since your last validation, and the revalidation flight check with the designated examiner.

The scope differs for current versus lapsed certificates — a current RPC revalidates in a day. A lapsed one may need additional refresher flying, which we confirm when we see your file.

Format

How training runs

The review and refresher run in class at Waterfall City, online, or through the e-learning portal. The revalidation flight check happens at Grasslands Flying Club with the designated examiner. Most current certificate holders finish in a day.

What you leave with

A revalidated RPC — current, compliant and back on contract.
