Drone Training in Australia-wide with Working Commercial Operators

FlyIQ by DIWA delivers CASA-approved drone training for pilots at every stage, from your first Remote Pilot Licence (RePL) to advanced BVLOS and EVLOS endorsements. What sets us apart is simple: our instructors are active commercial drone operators who fly real inspection and mapping missions, not full-time trainers working from a manual.

​

Our Perth Drone Courses

  • RePL (Sub-25kg Multirotor) — the core commercial licence for most drone work in Australia, covering airspace, regulations, and hands-on flight training.

  • AROC (Aeronautical Radio Operator Certificate) — required for operating in controlled airspace and communicating with air traffic.

  • BVLOS & EVLOS Training — advanced endorsements for beyond and extended visual line-of-sight operations, ideal for surveying, agriculture, and infrastructure inspection.

  • Team & Corporate Training — tailored group programs for businesses building in-house drone capability.

 

Why Train in Perth with FlyIQ

Our courses combine classroom theory with practical flying in small groups using real aircraft, so you leave genuinely job-ready, not just certified. Because DIWA runs live commercial drone operations across Western Australia, you learn the realities of the job: weather calls, site safety, client expectations, from people who do it every week.
