Searcy, AR (LP) — Have you ever thought about taking a course in high-school on how to fly a drone? This year for all students interested in learning how to use drones for exotic productions, has progressed towards focusing on the side-tasks of each career dealing within movie productions, construction-zones, and even selling real-estate. Of course when your mind thinks about the word “career”, you never really think of flying a drone. Unless its mainly for military purposes. Reaching out in many different styles of careers we begin to view that even side jobs have a huge effect on young adults starting their lives after graduation. But have you ever heard of anyone making money during high school? Many real-estate companies, movie producers, and even commercial businesses hire drone experts to shoot footage for their final products.

All you have to do is be dedicated during school hours, be able to afford a durable drone, and then get home and practice flying. It will take longer to pursue this interest into a steady paying hobby. Of course producing this seems unrealistic, but many have succeeded past the unbelievers in making up to $1,000 to $10,000 with just assisting a commercial company or real-estate company.

Diving into the production of Unmanned Aerial Systems, we were really curious of what the students thought about the idea of this decision. As we brought our attention to the students taking this course this year. Lott Wright and his thoughts on UAS, “It really grabs my interest. Might be something I want to pursue after high school. I can’t wait to fly drones!” This year has excited many students that know about these opportunities. This opportunity is well needed for many local businesses, even individuals looking to sell their homes or stores that don’t have access to professional tools to develop a respectable image of the establishment on display. 

All students who are interested in applying for a course in Unmanned Aerial Systems I can of course sign up like normal through picking the class in the electives. Hopefully next year, Unmanned Aerial Systems II can be up and running for those students who are interested in continuing their education further in this course. This first course so far seems taking a further step towards allow students to take a test to recieve registration for flying a drone. Receiving this registration for civilians piloting drones for money. You will recieve Part 107 commercial registration after taking a test given to you by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
