I recently finished the 4 day GVC & A2 4 day course. I have been an RPAS for 7 years or so now. So was really looking forward to refreshing my knowledge and skills. And it did just that. Steve was great all through the course, made the course very interesting, Extremely knowledgeable and always there to answer any questions and help where needed. I have been on a few drone courses in that time, EEI's was by far the best I've been on. I would recommended them to anyone. And would definitely come back for advanced courses and follow ups if needed and available.

I have just completed my GVC course with Eagle Eye. Ian Galloway was excellent as an instructor. He was extremely knowledgeable and professional but taught in a manner that was both interesting and informative. He tailored his teaching to each of the individual students needs. He explained everything clearly and thoroughly, in a way that the students could understand. Eagle Eye overall are clearly very professional and well-managed. I would highly recommend them and look forward to working with them again.

Ian gave a thorough introduction to all of the requirements and regulations for piloting drones in the UK. During practical exercises, we got hands-on experience with a DJI Mavic drone by practising different manoeuvres at a suitable site.

Excellent course delivered by Tim and Steve. All aspects of safe drone flying are covered. An essential certificate required for legal drone pilots of all disciplines. The instruction is superb.

Knowledgeable and engaging instruction, willing to adapt to personal difficulties. Theory was a bit dense, but it all made sense once the flying started.

Reply from Eagle Eye Innovations
Great pace of information in theory sessions, Ian was experienced but willing to stop and answer questions and was patient and considerate.
The hands on practical flying was clear and positive, and my confidence grew well.
I would have appreciated some reference slides from deck, but
Overall great course and would recommend.
Learnt lots over the course, good overall experience from instructor Ian

Qualified as UAS pilot with EagleEye. Great team, both Ian and Steve were great. Very knowledgeable. I would however like to see less of an overload on the legislation, maybe broken up a bit. Was heavy on information for the first couple of days.

I did my GVC with Eagle Eye Innovations earlier this year and was very happy with the training. Just wanted to write a follow up review as Tim at EEI has also been very helpful with a recent CAA audit. I'm a professional photographer who doesn't have an aviation background, so coming into the world of commercial drone operations has been a new and at times complex experience. Tim has given guidance on what the CAA are looking for and explained what a few things meant which I didn't understand. If you are new to drones and need training and support, Eagle Eye are fantastic.

I recently completed my A2CofC drone training/qual with Ian at Eagle Eye. The day was well structured and flexible, and Ian was extremely knowledgeable and helpful in guiding me through all of the information required. They are a great team, I would highly recommend anyone wanting to get drone qualified to use these guys!

A great course run by a very professional company. The instructor was exceptionally knowledgeable, whose style and manner was such that the course material was easily taken on board and then put into practice. Both the theory and practicable elements of the course were enjoyable,with plenty of drone flying time given.
