Important questions
Do I need to own a drone?
No. XDRONES provides equipment for the practical activities indicated in each program. Learners who already own a drone may provide the model for compatible guidance.
Is the certificate issued by ANAC?
No. The certificate of completion is issued by XDRONES. Training covers ANAC, ANATEL and DECEA rules but does not grant a public license or automatic government authorization.
Is the content updated for July 1, 2026?
Yes. The program addresses the updated ICA 100-40 and the removal of the former airspace-request exemption for drones below 250 g. Each mission still requires a specific assessment.
Are the courses taught in English?
The website is available in English for international visitors. Course language, bilingual instruction and interpreting support must be confirmed with XDRONES before enrollment.
