How we deliver

Scope & options

RPC eligibility and training sit inside the Drone Rules/DGCA framework; the delivering RPTO must be authorised for the applicable training scope.

Small and medium are aircraft weight classes; rotorcraft, aeroplane and hybrid are aircraft categories/configurations and must not be collapsed into one axis.

Lotusmirk coordinates the engagement; the authorised partner RPTO conducts the regulated training/assessment, and the RPC is issued through the applicable Digital Sky/DGCA process.

Is Lotusmirk a DGCA-authorised RPTO?

Lotusmirk coordinates the engagement; the regulated training and assessment are conducted by the appropriately DGCA-authorised partner RPTO named in the final course proposal.

Are small, medium and hybrid equivalent course categories?

Small and medium are aircraft weight classes; hybrid is an aircraft category. The RPTO’s approval must cover the actual class and category being offered.

Who delivers regulated training?

The final course proposal names the delivering RPTO legal entity, training location and applicable class/category scope. Lotusmirk remains the coordinating commercial contact.

Does paying for a course guarantee an RPC or a job?

Eligibility, attendance, assessment and the applicable certification process govern the outcome. Employment and deployment are separate engagements.

What are the basic eligibility conditions for an RPC pathway?

The Drone Rules framework requires the remote-pilot applicant to be 18–65 years old and to have passed Class 10 or an equivalent examination from a recognised board. Training is completed through a DGCA-authorised RPTO for the relevant scope.
