About us
Founded in 2006, heliguy™ originally began life as a remote-control helicopter specialist, but recognising innovation, transitioned to begin working closely with an emerging drone manufacturer. That manufacturer is still known today as Da-Jiang Innovations (DJI), and heliguy™ became the sole reseller of their products in the United Kingdom. Since then, DJI has grown to dominate the global consumer and enterprise market through their ground-breaking technology and revolutionary sensor capabilities. Although now no longer the only organisation to offer DJI products, heliguy™ continues to work closely with DJI, earning the status of Gold Partner and received the coveted ‘Top10 European Partner of the Year Award 2018’. In addition, heliguy™ provides a range of services to the UAS industry including Counter-UAS equipment retail andrental, technical repair, product development, training and consultancy. We are proud to be one of the most senior Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) approved Recognised Assessment Entities(RAE) and deliver Regulated Qualifications under our approval as a Training Qualifications United Kingdom (TQUK) recognised centre.
