Professional service, quality instructors
Recently attending the GVC - RPC L1 Training up at Coptrz Training area in Leeds and was not left disappointed. Both Louis and Joel were knowledgeable and passionate about the service they deliver on behalf of Coptrz. Although seasoned pilots, the team made us feel relaxed and at ease. Nothing was too much trouble for these guys and we left happy knowing that Coptrz can deliver a professional training package and supply contract.

highly recommend company and training
Louis delivered highly valuable training, drawing on real-world experience and tailoring the content specifically to our operational needs. The hands-on approach was particularly effective, and he was able to answer all questions clearly and confidently. The post-training support, including assistance with flight zone mapping and flight logs, has been extremely well received by the whole team.

We’re really pleased you enjoyed the GVC course and that Luke made such a strong impression. Being knowledgeable is one thing, but delivering it in a clear and easy-to-follow way is exactly what we aim for, so it’s great to see that come through.
Thanks again for the recommendation, and all the best with your flying going forward.

Training was very easy to get involved with and I could do it at a time that suited me. If I needed to go over something again I could just move the video back or read the text so great ways for me to learn.

GVC Training
Completed my GVC Exam with COPTRZ. The instructor i had on the day was Louis. He made the exam feel very comfortable when conducting this. Was open to questions at the exam and seemed very informed. No complaints.

It’s great to hear that your GVC exam went smoothly and that Louis helped create a comfortable and supportive environment on the day. We place a big emphasis on making sure candidates feel at ease while still maintaining the standards required, so it’s brilliant to know that came across.
We’ll be sure to pass your feedback on to Louis.
Replacement GVC
Contacted Coptrz asking for a replacement copy of a lost GVC. Jay couldn’t have been more helpful and managed to locate and supply a fresh copy of my licence within a few minutes, for a course completed over 2 years ago. The training itself was excellent and the after service equally impressive.

It’s completely natural to feel a bit apprehensive when starting something new, so it’s great to hear that the team helped put you at ease. Creating a supportive and approachable learning environment is really important to us, and we’re pleased that came across during your course.
We’re glad you felt comfortable asking questions and getting the support you needed—wishing you all the best on your drone journey, and we hope to see you again soon.
Very useful and insightful and…
Very useful and insightful and inciteful course that has created much conversation in our group. My only criticism is that it was very expensive for a relatively minimal return for what is essentially a charity organisation. I appreciate that the business exists to create profit, but perhaps some consideration to follow up support?

Thanks for your review - please let us know what follow up support your require.

Super fast delivery - great communication.
Even got an email (from a real person)just after delivery to make sure that the delivery went well.
After delivery I had a technical question that they answered with no fuss. Again, I dealt with a real person.
Brilliant experience.
I will be shopping with these guys again.
