What is the <7Kg RePL Pilot Transition?

The <7Kg Remote Pilot Licence (RePL) is a great way for GA fixed-wing and rotary wing pilots to that hold their CASA flight crew licence to enter the drone industry as an employee or contractor for a ReOC holder, or for themselves. 


If you hold a PPL, CPL, RPL, or ATPL you can skip the learning component and simply attend the assessment day. However, if you'd like to do the full course you'll still be provided access to full RePL course offering online theory modules through videos, manuals, access to additional resources and quizzes in easy to follow modules which can be completed in your own time.


When you're ready, a practical assessment day can be booked in your nearest capital city in order to complete an exam and practical flight assessment. 


Once the assessment is complete, the team at Droneit will complete the paperwork in order for CASA to issue you RePL which happens instantly. Completion of the RePL course will allow you to fly any multi-rotor <7KG, get insured and give you access to further exemptions and the ability to fly in controlled and restricted airspace.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is a RePL?

    A remote pilot licence (RePL) allows you to fly remotely piloted aircraft (RPA) in circumstances that need specialist training.

    You'll need to apply for a RePL if you want to fly:

    • a drone larger than 2 kg for commercial operations - any time you earn money for flying
    • outside the drone safety rules (standard operating conditions)
    • for a remotely piloted aircraft operator's certificate (ReOC) holder.

    If you want to fly for commercial purposes, you must also either hold a ReOC or work for a ReOC holder. If you get paid for flying your drone - you are flying commercially.

  • Is a RePL all I need?

    If you want to fly a drone over 2Kg for commercial purposes, you must also either hold a ReOC or work for a ReOC holder. If you get paid for flying your drone - you are flying commercially.


    RePLs do not expire.

  • What is a ReOC?

    A remotely piloted aircraft operator's certificate (ReOC) allows you to earn money for flying, employ remote pilot licence (RePL) holders and fly outside the drone safety rules - also known as the standard operating conditions.

    A ReOC allows you to:

    • Flying closer than 30 metres.
    • Get approval to fly within restricted airspace, near aerodromes and extended and beyond visual line-of-sight variations.
    • Fly at night
    • Submit a Notice to Airmen alert (NOTAM).

  • Do I need a licence on my own land?

    You do not require a RePL if:

    • you own the drone
    • your drone weighs between 100g and 25kg*
    • you - or someone flying on your behalf - are only flying over your own property
    • the drone and land are owned or leased by the same person
    • no money is paid for conducting the flight.

    *You can fly a drone weighing up to 150 kg if you (or the person flying on your behalf) holds a RePL.

    Remote Pilot Licence Certification & Training

    There is a strong possibility that you while flying your drone you have one eye on the marketplace and are starting to notice the numbers of those that are earning by flying increasing. There is no doubt that this is a boom time for those with drones as companies have latched onto the capabilities that they bring and seek to take advantage. However, to legally earn and to attract the kind of work that you might like to, remote pilot licence certification is an absolute must.


    Remote Pilot Licence Certification

    At Droneit, we are a CASA drone training school. All of our online courses are CASA certified and they also meet insurance standards. What differentiates us from any other drone training service is the fact that we are a team of business people that are also drone pilots. We understand the industry, we understand what it takes to safely and capably fly a drone and we have a better learning platform than anyone else in Australia.


    What’s the Value of Having a Remote Pilot Licence?

    Those with a Remote Operator Certificate (ReOC) issued by CASA can retain the services of drone pilots, which means that there are many different employers out there that can hire you to use your drone to achieve their goals. Remote Pilot Licence or RePL licence training is essential if you have no previous aviation experience. However, once you have it and start to gain a good reputation in the industry, this can afford you many lucrative opportunities.


    Here at Droneit, our services are in place to ensure that pilots can earn money legally by flying their drones. If you are planning on making money from this activity commercially, then failure to do so without a licence could result in a fine of up to $30,000.


    A legitimate drone pilot that has the credentials to back their skills will always be much more attractive to companies that have a ReOC. The fact that you have completed the requisite training gives them confidence in your abilities and that you are fully aware of the prevailing regulations and laws, and will fly the drone safely and with consideration for others.


    Education is something that gives confidence not only to you as a pilot but to those that hope to retain your services. Having a RePL licence in Australia separates you from the crowd and affords those that wish to benefit from the many ways drones can enhance a business additional faith in its ability to become a part of their enterprise going forward, which is good news for all drone pilots.


    Invest In A Remote Pilot Licence

    Past clients who undertook our courses here at Droneit have achieved the results that they wanted to at their own pace. Our easy to use online platform allows you to read, listen or watch the different training modules and you can even access free additional tutorials should you wish to gain a little more knowledge and insight.


    The remote pilot licence course is the ultimate way to equip yourself with the knowledge and skill base required to competently fly your drone for commercial reasons. An investment in your education today is the passport toward future earning potential and so we encourage you to book a free career consultation today so that we can help point you in the right direction.
