Founded in 2013 and based in Loveland, Colorado, Drone U supports pilots at every stage, from first-time flyers to experienced operators working across industries.

In Their Words

“Some of the most valuable learning happens outside formal training. Giving pilots a place to ask questions, compare experiences, and learn from one another adds a layer of depth that traditional courses alone don’t provide.” — Rob Burdick, Founder, Drone U
