🎥 We're Proud to Be Featured on 9Now's Hunting Outback Gold! 🎥

The DIWA team is incredibly proud to have played a role in the new series Hunting Outback Gold, now streaming on Nine.com.au

The series follows a dedicated team of prospectors as they venture into some of Australia's most remote and rugged landscapes in search of hidden gold and untold stories.

Combining adventure, history, determination and modern technology, it's a fascinating look at the challenges and excitement of outback exploration.

We were honoured to contribute our expertise and technology to the project and are thrilled to see the DIWA team featured throughout the journey.

Opportunities like this showcase how advanced drone technology can support exploration, mapping, surveying and the investigation of areas that would otherwise be difficult to access.

As a Western Australian company, we're passionate about pushing the boundaries of what's possible with drones and remote sensing technology.

Seeing our team featured on a national platform is a proud moment and a testament to the hard work, professionalism and innovation of everyone involved.

A big thank you to the Prospero Productions team and everyone who helped bring this series to life.

If you haven't seen it yet, head over to 9Now and check out the series.

We're incredibly proud to have been part of the adventure and look forward to sharing more behind-the-scenes insights soon.

🚁 Training That Comes From Real-World Operations

At FlyIQ, our instructors aren't just trainers, they're active drone pilots operating in the field every day. From remote mining sites and powerline inspections to substation surveys and BVLOS operations, we bring real-world experience directly into the classroom.

Learn from the people who are out there solving problems, managing risk, working with clients, and flying missions in challenging environments. Our training goes beyond theory to give you practical knowledge that prepares you for industry.

When you train with FlyIQ, you're learning from professionals who live and breathe drone operations.

📍 Industry-focused training
📍 Real-world operational experience
📍 CASA-aligned courses
📍 Learn from active commercial pilots

Ready to take your drone skills to the next level?

The commercial drone market is splitting in two.

On one side: operators with a standard RePL doing basic site surveys and photography.

On the other: operators qualified for EVLOS, BVLOS, complex airspace, and specialist platforms, the ones getting the long-term contracts in mining, energy, defence, and infrastructure.

The gap between those two groups will widen over the next 3 years.

FlyIQ's training program is built to get operators into the second group, not just licensed, but capable of the work that industry actually needs done. That includes our BVLOS program, launching later this year.

If you had to predict: Which industry sector in Australia will drive the most demand for drone operators over the next 5 years?

→ Mining and resources
→ Defence and government
→ Renewables and energy infrastructure
→ Emergency services and agriculture
→ Something else (tell us)

Drop your pick and your reasoning below. We're genuinely interested, this shapes the training and course content we develop.

👇

Australia's investment in uncrewed and autonomous systems is accelerating, $12–15 billion committed through 2035–36.

For defence, emergency services, and government operators, the training standard for drone operations needs to match the operational environment, not a civilian minimum.

FlyIQ's instructors bring military aviation training to every course. That's not marketing language. It's the background that shapes how they assess risk, manage airspace, and run emergency procedures.

We work with organisations that need drone operators trained to a higher standard. Whether that's ADF-aligned requirements, state agency operations, or critical infrastructure teams.

If your organisation is planning drone training for FY2026–27, June is the time to scope it. We can deliver cohort training with full CASA documentation and invoicing before financial year-end.
