The Best Free Tools & Platforms to Practise UAV Skills in 2025/26

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), often referred to as drones, are no longer just hobbyist gadgets. They are now central to industries including logistics, construction, agriculture, energy, filmmaking, defence, and emergency services. The UK is seeing strong growth in UAV adoption as businesses explore cost-savings, safety improvements, and new commercial opportunities. For job seekers aiming to work in UAV engineering, piloting, software, or research, practical experience matters. Employers want more than a basic understanding of aerodynamics or regulations.
