Join the Squadron: Real FPV Flying and Drone Training
Real pilots aren't made in simulators. We train in the wild, build in our labs, and fly as a family. Welcome to the squadron.
It was all a dream. This video shows how we built DroneYards from scratch, turning an empty office space into India's first Drone Experience Center through pure hustle.

About Join the Squadron
Flying isn't about watching a screen, it's about feeling the stick in your hand. When you join the squadron, you aren't just learning how to operate a machine; you are joining a community that meets on weekends to push limits, whether we are at a local field in Ghaziabad or scaling the hills in Himachal for a new project.
I started DroneYards because I was tired of people telling me I couldn't run a drone company without a fancy degree. I chose to build, break, and fix my own gear instead. This isn't a classroom with rigid rules; it is a lab where you learn to solder, tune your rates in Betaflight, and recover from crashes because that is how you actually learn.
Why Join Our Community?
- Hands-on Assembly: You won't just fly; you will build your FPV drone from scratch. I guide you through the anatomy of the drone, from flight controllers to video transmitters.
- Real World Training: Forget the simulator for a second. We take our training outdoors, into the wind, the mountains, and the real terrain where drone pilots actually need to work.
- Industry Connections: From training 350+ Indian Army soldiers in tactical drone missions to collaborating with IIT Mandi for our new drone labs, you are plugging into a network that is actually shaping the industry.
This is a family of pilots. Whether you are a beginner looking to understand the basics or an enthusiast wanting to master Acro mode, you are welcome here. We fly together, we grow together, and we push each other to be better. If you are ready to stop dreaming and start flying, the squadron is waiting for you.
