FAQ

When and where is the program available?

Back 41 is up and running now, the program is currently available in Austin, Houston and San Antonio. We plan to expand to other locations in 2025.

Is there a cost to the first responder or their agency?

Our goal is to provide all year one cost for drones, training and support. Since this is not usually budgeted, we are trying to offset all set up cost so that is not deterrent to getting it started. That gives the agency time to work the small on-going cost into the future budget process.

Is there support after the 100 hour training program?

For Back 41 pilots we have budgeted up to 8 hours of additional training and support. This could include confined space, breaching and clearing facilities and other specialized techniques.
