Frequently Asked Questions
What is A1, A2, and A3 categories of operating a <25kg drone?
The categories of operations are known as A1, A2, and A3. They are classified as:
- A1 (fly over people)
- A2 (fly close to people)
- A3 (fly far away from people)
The basic CAA Drone Code will tell you everything you need to pass the test for a flyer ID, which allows you to fly in Open A1 and A3 categories.
What is the difference between the Open and Specific categories?
The Specific category covers operations that present a greater risk than that of the Open category, or where one or more elements of the operation fall outside the boundaries of the Open category. You must pass the online test and hold a Flyer-ID, and register as a UAS operator, and display your Operator ID on your UAS.
Who provides the A2 CofC and GVC training?
The A2 CofC and GVC training is provided by our experienced EEI Academy instructors. We are recognised by the CAA and their courses are designed to expand your theoretical knowledge to ensure you operate safely and appropriately.
Where will I do the training?

Testimonials
Excellent course, professionally delivered and time management was excellent also. No time wasted, nothing rushed. Zeta Central Student
I really enjoyed the course and both instructors Tim and Matt made learning fun which helped with me passing the course. I had very little knowledge of drone legislation or flying prior to the course so it shows the high quality of teaching which helped me gain my golden wings and gain a 100% score. Zeta Central Student
Excellent course with excellent instruction. Gally was very personable and pitched the course at the right level. The theory element was quite technical but was made easier by the instruction. none of the course material was laboured, but there was enough explanation to check understanding. The practical element was made easy because of the quality of training. all together, an excellent course. would definitely use EE Innovations again and would have no hesitation in recommending you as a training provider.

Overall, it was the best formal course I've undertaken in over 30 years in the military. Thank you. Zeta Central Student
The instruction from Steve and Gally was excellent. They understood the need to translate the course content into a practical way that we as Kent Fire & Rescue Service will us it. I believe all the content was covered and as a candidate I gained confidence at flying using the hand held screen and camera. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone getting involved with any drone activities. Kent Fire and Rescue Service
A great day and learned a huge amount. Definitely interested in a a further bespoke advanced flying day perhaps next year. Thanks Tim! Bespoke Flying Day Student
