Trading name and registered name differ. UAV8 appears on the CAA register as UAV8 Ltd. Search the register for the trading name and you will not find them. That is normal, and it is why we reconcile every name — the full reconciled register.
We have not taken this provider's courses. Everything above is read from their own published pages on 8 September 2026 and linked so you can check it yourself. No link on this page is paid or affiliate, and no seller can buy a position in any table. Spotted something wrong? Tell us.

Ranked on published price alone. Price is not quality, and the cheapest and dearest end in the same CAA certificate — the syllabus is set by the regulator, not the seller.
The 2027 change
Before you buy a GVC here. The CAA stops issuing the GVC on 31 December 2027 and replaces it with the Level 1 Remote Pilot Certificate. On the register, UAV8 is not listed as approved for RPC-L1. A GVC bought now is still valid for five years — what the change actually means.
