In response to the shortage of flight control talents in the context of the rapid development of the UAV industry, this study constructed a systematic UAV flight control talent training system and career development plan. The system adopts a teaching method that combines theory with practice, aiming to comprehensively improve students' professional skills and career development capabilities. The study investigated the effectiveness of the existing drone training system and found that students were less satisfied with drone courses, with the lowest average score being only 2.18 points. At the same time, when investigating the required abilities of UAV flight control personnel, it was found that the pre-flight inspection ability load was the highest, at 0.822. It proves that it is necessary to train new UAV flight control talents at this stage, and we should also focus on the training of pre-flight inspection capabilities in UAV talent training.
