Oradors molt informats i amb molt coneixament sobre el tema del que parlen. Genial per tiner una idea d'una àrea de la que no sabía res abans.

Es un lugar donde se fusionan conocimientos y habilidades para modelar uno a un piloto competente y un operador de drones. Con instructores altamente dotados, y muchas horas de entrenamiento tanto en el simulador como prácticamente volando, es todo lo que se requiere para transformar cualquier piloto entusiasta de drones en uno excelente. Un verdadero pionero de UAS y campeón de su futuro.

Jordi Santacana, a més de ser el millor pilot del món, és una persona senzilla, propera i de tracte exquisit. Els professors Albert i Marc són grans professionals que m'han ajudat aprendre tots els conceptes del curs d'una forma excel·lent i la relació instructor - alumne ha sigut inmillorable. Es nota que són experts. Recomano plenament BCN Drone Center, és el millor centre per aprendre a volar.

Aquest curs em va ajudar a apreciar la tecnologia de drons molt més. Interactuar amb usuaris de drones de tot el món i em va fascinar la quantitat de treball que la gent s'ha dedicat a fer de drons per mapatge aeri, lliurament de càrrega i moltes aplicacions robòtiques en benefici de la humanitat.
