(latest NCVER data)Safe RPAS operations start before take-off, with careful engine starts, controlled taxiing and correct shutdown procedures that protect people, aircraft and facilities. AVIY0052 Control remote pilot aircraft systems on the ground focuses on these on-ground tasks, and RTOs whose remote pilot programs include runway-based aircraft can deliver it through AVIY0052 learning materials.
Learners develop skills in completing pre-start and after-start checks, starting engines in line with the flight manual, obtaining ATIS reports and taxi clearances, taxiing at safe speeds, interpreting airfield markings and signals, positioning the RPAS for launch and completing shutdown checks and documentation.
Get our AVIY0052 RTO training materials to deliver on-ground control procedures without writing checklists and taxi scenarios internally. Purchase RTO materials and give trainers AVIY0052 training resources prepared for practical ground tasks.
These AVIY0052 training resources provide a prepared foundation for starting, taxiing and shutting down remote pilot aircraft. Purchase RTO materials to save development time with AVIY0052 learning materials organised around each ground phase.
Check the latest unit requirements on training.gov.au before delivery. Your team should contextualise and validate these AVIY0052 training materials for its learner cohort, delivery model and selected compliance environment. Use the supplied mapping as a starting point when reviewing your AVIY0052 materials against the Standards for RTOs.
AVIY0052 Control remote pilot aircraft systems on the ground covers controlling remote pilot aircraft systems on the ground in line with CASA requirements, including starting the engine, taxiing or positioning the aircraft and performing shutdown. It applies to flight crew and ground personnel working independently or under limited supervision in single-pilot or multi-crew environments.
The unit addresses five core areas:
Learners need access to an RPAS with engine start and taxi capability, along with a suitable ground area or airfield. Your team should confirm that its facilities allow learners to start, taxi, position and shut down the aircraft safely.
Yes. The Learner Guide with Unit Content covers airfield markings, lights, signals and indicators, along with ATIS reports and taxi clearance information.
Yes. The editable files allow your team to insert type-specific start, taxi and shutdown procedures from your AFM or POH where contextualisation is permitted.
Yes. They provide a structured format for recording observed tasks and decisions. They are developed as compliant learning resources, but assessors should confirm that the records suit their own evidence requirements.
Yes. A free sample of the AVIY0052 training materials lets your team check structure and presentation before you purchase.
