Drone schools and training options

Classroom courses can accelerate practical skills and local exam admin, but theory and exam-style practice can often be done online first. This guide helps you compare school formats, questions to ask before you pay, and how A2STS fits as preparation before your NAA exam.

Classroom vs online preparation

Schools excel at hands-on flight instruction, local language support and exam registration logistics. Online simulators excel at question banks, timed mocks and revisiting weak topics at your own pace.

Many pilots combine both: A2STS for theory readiness, then a short practical module if their NAA or insurer expects it.

Questions to ask any school

  • Is the course recognised by my NAA for the licence I need?
  • What is included: theory hours, practical, exam booking, retakes?
  • Class size, instructor credentials, and drone fleet used for training.
  • Refund policy if I already passed theory online.

Lithuania-specific schools

For in-person training in Lithuania, see the directory on a2sts.lt (TKA ecosystem). EU visitors preparing for their home NAA can still use A2STS English exam simulators on this site.

FAQ

Is A2STS a school?
No. We are an online exam preparation platform. We do not replace NAA-approved practical training where it is required.
