How much does drone pilot training cost in Trivandrum?

At DGCA-authorised RPTOs, a Small Category RPC course typically costs about ₹25,000 to ₹35,000 + GST; medium, combined and specialist courses cost more. Dronevex shares this week's fee for your course on enquiry.

How long does it take to get a drone license in Trivandrum?

The Small Category course takes 5 days, and the Small + Medium combined course about 7 days. After you pass the proficiency test, the RPTO issues your Remote Pilot Certificate on DGCA’s eGCA portal.

Can I fly a drone anywhere in Trivandrum after I get my license?

No. Your RPC lets you fly professionally, but you still follow the DigitalSky airspace map. Green zones need no permission up to 400 ft, yellow zones need air traffic control permission, and red zones need central government permission. Areas near Trivandrum airport, Thumba and defence sites are restricted.

Is drone survey work growing in Trivandrum?

Yes. Port-linked construction around Vizhinjam, highway work and real-estate growth all need survey and mapping. Consider the Drone Survey & Mapping module after your RPC.
