Testimonials
With the progression of UAS programs in Law Enforcement continuing to grow worldwide, the invaluable information obtained during this conference was priceless. Whether you're starting a UAS program or have a program up and running for years, this conference caters to the needs of everyone. The location for the conference was second to none, in offering the latest in real life scenarios, equipment, and instructors. I highly recommend this conference to any and all interested in furthering their UAS programs.
“UTAC 2019 was an amazing opportunity to bring together public safety professionals, at one of the finest training sites in the world, to learn about some of the most cutting edge technology available today. The realism and depth of the scenarios was impressive beyond the normal scope of ‘great training’. With a great mix of instructors, presenters and students, FLYMOTION has set a new bar for what ‘exceptional’ means in the realm of UAS Training.
"What I like about UTAC is that it is an advanced hands on UAS operations event geared toward those agencies that have already committed to integrating a UAS program into their response. Many of the instructors run active UAS teams and share thier real world experiences. UTAC provides an experience that encourages students to fly missions with thier own UAS within a command structure in a realistic physical environment. The training often exposes unforeseen equipment or procedural deficiencies that othwise would only be discovered by the student during real world responses and provides the student with the intellectual resources to help them adapt and overcome."

Hosted at Guardian Centers in Perry, Georgia
Guardian Centers is a world-renowned facility encompassing over 850 acres, with a sprawling 15 city block urban city-scape. This expansive facility allows us to train your staff in a multitude of real-world scenarios. The variety of environments, depth of training, and instructor expertise makes the UTAC conference a unique opportunity unlike anything you have experienced.
8 Real-World Scenarios
ACTIVE SHOOTER / BUS HOSTAGE
Our Active Shooter / Bus Hostage scenario puts the attendees in the middle of a real-world operation where drones, first responders, and law enforcement/SWAT teams collaborate to mitigate a deadly threat.
With real gun fire, explosions, and moulage role players, this scenario immerses the attendees into the chaos of an active shooter scene from the perspective of our first responders.

WANTED SUSPECT
Transitional periods from day to night operations create challenges for first responders. With thermal technology and powerful lighting systems on drones today, public safety agencies now have 24-hour operational capabilities.
Attendees will discover the strategies in use today by field experts regarding active searches for criminals and/or wanted suspects.

MISSING PERSONS
With UAS’ sensors and cameras becoming more powerful and automated, Search and Rescue teams have been utilizing UAS more to assist with their response.
With 800+ acres of wildland and urban landscapes, attendees will absorb the tactics developed by leading experts in UAS/SAR as they conduct real-time searches for lost persons.
VEHICLE TAKEDOWN
Utilizing drone technology for even mundane tasks such as routine traffic stops, law enforcement officers can identity subjects and threats from a safe distance.
In this scenario, we teach officers how to properly detect those threats and mitigate risk using smaller drone platforms. We hope this use of drones will become standard protocol in public safety.
SUBWAY TERRORIST ATTACK
The chances of a terrorist incident occurring in America’s subways is far too real. UTAC attendees will train underground in an on-site 1,700-foot subway system, resembling the Washington D.C. Metro line.
With smoke, darkness, screaming victims, and potential chemical/biological threats, attendees will observe how HazMat, CBRNe, and EOD teams use aerial and ground-based solutions to respond to underground terrorist events.
WATER RESCUE / FLOOD DISASTER
Since the devastating Hurricane Harvey floods, sUAS have assisted first responders as an aerial force multiplier for flood and swift water rescue.
With real injured victims trapped on rooftops clinging to life, UTAC attendees will be immersed into a 550,000-gallon flood basin resembling the 9th ward of New Orleans during a hurricane and learn UAS/Water Rescue response from the experts.
TANKER FIRE / CRASH
In this scenario, police officers and fire rescue will work in tandem to show how drones can deescalate a common occurrence such as a fiery vehicle crash. In such an event, the risk of harm to innocent bystanders is high.
Using new fire extinguishing technology, we will illustate how drones can deliver said technology, while keeping first responders at a manageable distance, limiting situational risk involved.
DRONE DETECTION & MITIGATION
As drones become commonly used by pilots and hobbyists, we understand the importance of regulating airspace over critical infrastructure and temporary or permanent no-fly zones.
Using industry-leading systems, we will showcase the importance and effectiveness of placing eyes in the sky. We will cover the steps following drones detected over controlled airspace and how to improve security and safety alike.
