Taught by a practitioner, not just an instructor

Your instructor has flown as remote pilot in command supporting law enforcement and emergency response, not just a training-company hire reading slides.

Built for the mission

Curriculum covers agency UAS program setup, COA guidance, and real search & mission scenarios: the parts of the job a generic Part 107 class skips.

We come to you

No travel required for your department. We schedule on-site, nationwide, around your agency's calendar.

Small class, real attention

Live Q&A and hands-on scenario work with instructors who know the room, not a lecture hall of 100.

Mode 02 · Aerial Security Operations

Still flying the missions that started it all

Scheduled patrols, event overwatch, and site monitoring across St. Tammany Parish, Greater New Orleans, and the Gulf Coast region, with 24/7 emergency response available.

Patrols

Security Patrols

Scheduled aerial sweeps of properties, neighborhoods, marinas, and industrial yards to deter theft, trespassing, and vandalism.

Events

Event Overwatch

Real-time aerial monitoring for festivals, private events, and corporate gatherings, delivering situational awareness plus footage for security and marketing.

Sites

Construction progress documentation and OSHA-style visual inspections from the air, built for contractors, developers, and insurers.

Who's Flying

Founded by a certified remote pilot with public safety flight experience

1105 Drones is a family-owned aerial training and security provider based in Madisonville, Louisiana. Before building a training program, our founder flew as remote pilot in command supporting law enforcement and emergency response: the same missions our students are training to run.

That's the difference between a class taught from a slide deck and one taught from the field.

Questions

Before you enroll

Do officers need prior drone experience?

No. The course is built to take someone with zero flight background through full Part 107 exam readiness.

Are the 2 host-agency seats automatic?

Yes, any agency that hosts the class at their facility receives 2 complimentary seats.

What if we want to send a large group?

Our 2-Day Search & Rescue Course offers group pricing for 4+ officers from the same department. The 3-Day Part 107 Course is priced flat regardless of group size. Every seat still counts toward the 2 free host-agency spots.

Is this only for law enforcement?

Fire, EMS, and emergency management personnel are equally welcome. The curriculum applies across public safety disciplines.

Do you travel outside Louisiana for training?

Yes, the 3-day course is available nationwide. Security operations are currently limited to Louisiana and the Gulf Coast region.
