More Pilots, More Fawns Saved
The 2026 fawn rescue season is approaching, and wildlife protection associations across Germany are ramping up preparations for the demanding search-and-rescue missions ahead.
In recent years, thermal imaging drones have become standard equipment in many regions. However, as mission volumes grow, a practical challenge has become increasingly clear: beyond hardware, having a sufficient number of certified drone pilots is now a decisive factor in rescue success.
One Drone Does Not Mean One Pilot Is Enough
Many associations typically start with a single drone—often purchased with the help of federal subsidy programs. While this is an important first step, real-world operations have revealed consistent challenges:
- Missions take place under time pressure, often in the early morning hours
- Multiple fields sometimes need to be searched simultaneously or on short notice
- Pilots are not always available at a moment's notice
As a result, many rescue teams have reached a clear conclusion: owning one drone does not mean one pilot is sufficient.
Associations are advised to train multiple members to qualify as drone pilots, enabling flexible deployment across a wide range of rescue scenarios.
Buy a Thermal Drone, Get 5 A2 Drone Licenses Free
To help associations gear up for the 2026 rescue season, Droniq has introduced a special promotion:
Purchase a thermal imaging drone for fawn rescue use before June 30, 2026, and receive five A2 drone pilot licenses—including online exams—at no charge.
This allows multiple rescue volunteers within the same association to obtain their qualifications simultaneously, giving the whole team greater operational flexibility.
⚠️ Please note: Exam fees payable directly to Germany's Federal Aviation Authority (Luftfahrt-Bundesamt, LBA) are not included in this promotion.
The Benefits of Training Multiple Drone Pilots
Even when an association operates only one drone, having a larger pool of qualified pilots delivers tangible advantages:
- Rescue capacity is maintained when a member is ill or otherwise unavailable
- Mission scheduling during the mowing season becomes more flexible
- Workload is distributed among pilots rather than falling on one individual
- The association can take on a greater number of rescue missions overall
In short: more trained pilots = stronger mission capability—even with just one drone.
Federal Subsidy: A Critical Starting Point
Germany's current federal fawn rescue subsidy program helps associations acquire thermal imaging-equipped drones.
Up to €3,000 per applicant is currently available for the purchase of a thermal drone.
This funding provides an important financial foundation for getting started, but it does not replace the need for ongoing investment in personnel training.
Technology + Training = Successful Rescue
Experience drawn from numerous rescue projects shows that successful fawn rescue depends on three key elements:
- Reliable equipment (thermal imaging drone)
- Sound organizational structure within the association
- A sufficient number of licensed, qualified drone pilots
Only when all three elements work together can rescue missions be planned and executed efficiently.
Who Is This Promotion For?
Droniq's offer is primarily aimed at:
- Fawn rescue associations
- District and county hunters' associations
- Hunters' federations
- Wildlife protection initiatives
In other words, any organization looking to strengthen and professionalize its fawn rescue operations in the field.
Get Ready for This Season Now
Fawn rescue is a race against time—often just minutes separate a successful rescue from a missed opportunity.
With a team of multiple trained pilots, an association can:
- Respond more flexibly to unexpected situations
- Coordinate missions more efficiently
- Scale up rescue capacity over the long term
