The Magadan Polytechnic Technical College has launched a training program for FPV drone operators designed specifically for Arctic operations. The course runs to 108 academic hours, with 12 people enrolled in the first cohort.The press office of the Magadan Region government noted that the program is tailored to the region’s harsh environment. It focuses on equipment durability and pilot effectiveness in extreme conditions, as well as the ability to carry out missions in environments involving radio-electronic countermeasures.As part of the curriculum, trainees will complete a specialized engineering course, learning to assemble and upgrade drones, install omnidirectional antennas and configure onboard flight data recorders.The training also places particular emphasis on flying beyond the line of sight, relying on instrument readings and OSD telemetry, as well as executing stealthy, ultra-low-altitude flights and navigating urban areas, forested terrain and the complex landscapes typical of the Arctic.Upon completion of the course, trainees must pass an examination that includes assembling a drone from scratch and executing a tactical mission at a testing ground.
