I've been flying RC sailplanes for 43 years and you're right, I'm not too happy about this. As much as I dislike geo-sat-push-a-button flying I don't entirely blame quad-copter guys. The open skies we use to share and enjoy are being commercialized and each cubic mile put up for sale.
The problem is they should have been requiring it before now. You can kill someone if you crash a large fixed wing into them. Just like a little drone.
@@ellzgoespro6568 you do know not one person has been seriously hurt or killed . Ever in out Hobby. Not One. Maybe.. possibly.. could.. are not logical. Fact's. Not One. So why do feel the need for rules? No could possibly.. a golf ball could kill someone? Any stupid person can by golf clubs.. hit randomly into a Park.. housing.. concert.. I'm Shure has happened? Now you suggest all golfer's get a license? GPS tracked balls? I don't think you deserve freedom. You so easily give away.. or take from others? Hoping your not American? If are you definitely want my gun's.. lol I seriously doubt could kill anyone.. hurt heck ya. But kill? I've hit myself lol hurts! But mostly pride.. but is your opion. And we still can have those.. Right??
@@ellzgoespro6568 I have to disagree. I started flying R/C fixed wing when I was 12 back in the 70s long long before any of this mess. No one ever got hurt. No cars were ever crashed into. . I don't have an issue when it comes to regulation. Like in finance or health. But regulating air under 450' is just ridiculous on the face of it. Why now? Because businesses want to use it. And they have deep pockets. Hobbyists have never posed a threat to the air space because we're small in number and there is a lot of space. It's corporations that want to use UAVs as a delivery system that started all this. It's not a very efficient system and there are bound to be losses from theft and vandalism. Let's see how long they're willing to go when they start losing tens of thousands of dollars in drone gear.
20 years ago a guy I know did a maiden flight with a 60 size at park. On his first round he lost orientation and dropped out of the sky into baseball backstop fence just before the parking lot. The same guy was recharging his alkaline batteries in his transmitter over and over again and lost a 30 size biplane at a couple hundred feet up and it barreled in full speed into a different parking lot barely missing cars. He had equipment with no failsafes. I have flown since the late 90's and I've seen dummies fly all models (planes, heli's, multirotors, pizza boxes). Back then when you invested in a radio, receiver, and other equipment you had a substantial about of money to get into it. Today its like a kids week allowance and that is why we are seeing so many new dummies.
In the last year I started my journey be getting a recreational certificate and wasn’t long before I decided to get Part 107. So glad I took the additional step. I learned so much, and still learning, as it opened up so many more opportunities for flying. I’ll be getting Part 108 when it’s in play.
You have the best videos your not in it for the money you really want to help people. I love that about your videos. I went to uavcooach web site took the test in less then 10 mins. I not as fast as you but it was easy and now I have my certificate THANKS RUSS
Thanks, hadn't even heard of this. It took me 15 minutes because I actually read the material before answering the questions. I'm planning to take the 107 test shortly, but thought I might as well knock this out first.
I'm a student of Greg's over at Pilot Institute. He's a great teacher and the course is amazing! Thanks Russ for this video and all the videos you put out!
Did not even check to see how long it took....but definitely under 15 minutes...much of it is common sense and I would have gotten the question right without reading the information prior to the quizzes....every question answered correctly the first time...YEA!!!!....piece of cake for all COMMON SENSE people. Glad it was SO EASY. And thanks for providing the website to complete the training.
Took me 6.5 minutes but I got hung up re-reading some of the early questions because I wasn't sure they were serious! Unbelievable! My dog could pass this test!
I am Canadian from Toronto and I just got my TRUST certificated through UAS Couch !! I followed you video The awesome part was that all the time I was thinking that I was studying for the test but it was actually the test lol . I got 100% in the test!! :) Now I got the TRUST and drone already registered with FAA and I got air hub portal app, Rec Rock Canyon in Las Vegas here I come !! :) thanks for this video
Just took the test, haven’t got the Part 107 yet but I’ve been studying for a week now. This certificate took me 5 minutes and I didn’t miss anything. Thanks for the info Russ
An officer approached me while I was flying and asked me if I was licensed. Instead of showing him my part 107 I gave him this certificate just to see what he would say. He came back five minutes later and said, have a good day sir.
I took it today on Pilot Institute and the process took about 10 minutes. I do have years of experience and a Part 107, but I did miss one question. Once you miss you immediately get to try another answer so no big deal. It’s easy and free. The certificate is printed out like about a work badge size. We have a laminator so I just laminated it and hung it on my badge thing I wear when I fly with my part 107 and my drone registration card. No big deal.
You need to stop asking for licenses to do what a free man with God given Rights. Not government given if get a license. Our hobby is toy Drones. Planes.. cars . Not one person in the history of our hobby has ever been killed or seriously hurt. So not about safety.. that should be very obvious. What is your conclusions based off that fact alone. If not About safety. Which it's not. Then why. You do enjoy and value your freedom?? Your a fucking Sheep. Stop Helping them take our rights. It hurt your feeling's? So be it. Not One! Why did you get your 107 ? Wasn't for safety.. so why?
I saw something about this test on the Mavic Pilots forum. I started to read through the posts and said, "You know what? I'm going to cut to the chase and go get Russ' take on it on the 51 Drones channel." Thanks Russ! We can always count on you for the latest information.
Thanks Russ! I've had a drone for a while now, but the laws/rules etc. really put a damper on my flying and has really killed my desire to fly. This information was really helpful and has kind of rekindled a spark in me to get back out there.
Thanks Russ..... Went through Pilot Institute, once I'd watched Greg's update info. Went through all the steps, printed out my certificate. Training session was easy. Good review info for those who have their Part 107 Certificate.
Greg from the Pilot institute was the first video that I saw on this topic and you were the second. Congratulations for providing timely information. I got his notice because I had gone through his training.
It is what it is either fly or don't if you do make sure you meet all the requirements to do so legally. - took me 15 minutes or so with none wrong :) Thanks Russ
You are the first person to call a quad copter - a quad copter. Every RC aircraft is in fact a drone. No human is onboard to fly it. Including our military drones. I have encountered some intense conversations with a few people because they think airplanes and helicopters are not Drones. They say the Drone law is for Drones only. Lol. And I say “Yes. True. “. They don’t understand the terminology. You are the only person I have heard address this. Thank you.
Thanks Russ.Very good right to the point no b/s video. It took me about 15 minutes to carefully read all the information and answer all the questions.Got a 100%. I do have my Part 107 UAS Certificate.
Thanks Russ. I think it's a great idea: • Training, Like you say • No cost • Something you didn't mention: Gives the pilot leverage if questioned by law enforcement or hassled by someone: "Hey I have an FAA certificate". I just got the FAA TRUST notice today by email. btw Russ your tittle includes the word "Test" LOL. Safe Travels
Russ, thanks for spreading the word. Regretfully this is a necessary evil and it is a good 5-10 minutes you will never get back, but it is something we all need to do. Thanks again
Valuable training of basic knowledge for every drone pilot. It is the equivalent to the EASA 'Proof of Completion of the Online Training'. Thanks for sharing!
Echoing Zach’s comments. Would not have known about the new requirement if not subscribed to your channel. Thank you for sharing your experience and wisdom of all-things drone related.
Great info! woke up this morning, saw your video, went to UAV Coach's site and did the training. Even though I'm a part 107 pilot, I figured it can't hurt! Thanks again
Part 107 pilots are required to take it because your not always going to fly for business right? LOL you always need a break and kick back and fly some tiny whoops inside your house
In typical government fashion, having a part 107 pilot take this new test is senseless, since whenever we fly, anything we shoot could be of value and I would never fly and say I'm just doing it recreationally !
THANKS 51 DRONES...YOU gave me the confidence to go do the test...EASY-PEASY...I took 30 minutes but read everything! I could have skipped alot. I have a Mini 2 so I am under the weight for registry. And test was nothing to worry about & a digital copy is ok too (my printer has seen better days). Thanks again for the heads up & the "walk through ".. it helped me...PEACE
I just took the safety test and passed using your recommendation. It was easy and good information plus I did learn a few things about flying a drone I didn't think I needed to know so I like it
UAV Coach - I used and found it very useful. I tried my best to think like a beginner. For those who are new its pretty darn good. Definitely agree on the experienced users. Very fast very easy.
Thank you for this video! I haven’t heard of this before. I have my 107, just recently, I am scared of my drone, and going to over come that. I’m going to take this course, and so glad I subscribed to your channel! Thank you for all you do for us, the time you take to break things down is awesome!
Flying a drone is like riding a bike or motorcycle. The fear of crashing can make you nervous. Whenever I take my drone out for the first time I can feel the nerves start tingling. I know it's going to be fun, but at the same time scary too. I imagine it's worse for people who fly RC planes. Drones pretty much fly themselves. Unless it malfunctions if it crashes it's because of something you did. Hitting a tree limb you didn't see, flying sideways into a bush when trying to land, stuff like that. But practice makes you feel more comfortable flying. I've been flying for about 4 years now.
Did mine on University of Arizona site. I am a part 61 certificate holder as well as A&P, IA. This was easy being a pilot. But, then again for non pilots it will be good information.
This is not even a test anymore, but rather a TRAINING of basic basic knowledge that every drone pilot should know. Good information) I have already passed it and received a certificate.
Hey Russ, the "TRUST" test was super easy! I completed it in 15 minutes. I've been flying drones since Sept 2015. I felt no anxiety when taking the training. It also helps that I'm a Commercial Airline Pilot and I'm use to doing recurrent training as required by my employer. Love your awesome and informative videos...you're the best. Keep up the great work!!
Comment#2: Well I decided to go to Pilot Institute and take the "safety test." It took me about 10 minutes to complete. I chalk up my success to the local drone club I joined 10 months ago.
@@sleepingbearffg5008 - I'm not sure what your comment means. I guess I took the test just to see how easy it was and how stupid it was. And it was stupid
It's good. It took me about 10 minutes. I am brand spanking new, but I have only use a drone half a dozen times. I missed one question, but that is because I choose the first one that was correct and didn't notice the "All of the above". So, had I done that I would have gotten all the questions correct. If you have been flying you should have NO problem getting all the questions correct in 10 minutes.
Russ, you beat me. It took me 5 minutes and 7 seconds to complete the test. I wasted time figuring out how to bypass all the informative information and get to the test on the second part. I'm glad I saw this video ( however, I watch every video you make) as I hadn't thought about using this section as a part 107 pilot does once in awhile. Thanks!
Thank you. First to bring it up and totally correct on the ease of the test. I also agree that the information is relevant and well presented (on the pilot institute site where I took it). It is important in my mind that people entering this arena be educated and I think this does the trick.
Russ, I just wrote the FAA test. I'm from Canada. The FAA knowledge test is a joke. In Canada, the exam is 35 questions, with a 90 minute time limit to complete the exam. It costs $10.00 for the basic exam. You must pass with a min of 75%. If you fail you must pay and redo. It is renewable every 2 years. Also it covers subjects such as aerodynamics of flight, such as lift, weather, radio communications, etc. Not to mention, in Canada you must register each drone individually at a cost of $5.00 per drone. So ya, you guys got it easy!! If you get caught in Canada without a license or drone cert, the fines start at $1000 to $5000 cdn. So again, you guys got it made.
Brand new to this - getting a dji mini 2 and wanted to be prepared. Took less than 10 minutes with UAV coach and was completely free!
I just took it. I spent 5.5 minutes including the download. Can't thank you enough Russ, Jim
About 7 minutes for me. It really is super basic info that anybody flying a drone should already know.
I did it on my cell phone; but the download option was not accessible because of the screen “real-estate” not a big deal at all, just an FYI.
Wow! That took a load off of me! Thank you!
It was a breeze good info.

Just took this test and i pass took me like 8 minutes I have to thank you because I wasn’t aware of this information. Thanks buddy
Like most have been commenting takes like 5 minutes, thanks for posting this Russ. Had no idea this was a new "thing".
Just took the test 100%took the trust test
Went to the page, read along and aced the questions. Pretty straight forward. Thanks for the links!
I actually read through the whole thing, didn't really learn anything new. Took me 10 min and I am certified!! Thank you
UAV coach is who I used as well and you are right they are great.
Took the test and it was easy like you said. Thinking about taking the part 107 soon.
5 mins! Amazing. Thanks for this great video Russ!!
Ty for the link took me 8ish minutes and wasn’t a problem at all. Love your vids
Thanks Russ for this informational Video. I just finished taking "The Recreational UAV Safety Test." Completed in about 20 minutes. Thanks again.

Took mines few months ago also pull myself together and now studying for my part 107
Yep! A very easy test. I went through the Pilot Institute version in nothing flat. Make sure to download, save and print copies of your certificate.

I missed one question, but that is because I choose the first one that was correct and didn't notice the "All of the above". So, had I done that I would have gotten all the questions correct. If you have been flying you should have NO problem getting all the questions correct in 10 minutes.
Russ, you beat me. It took me 5 minutes and 7 seconds to complete the test. I wasted time figuring out how to bypass all the informative information and get to the test on the second part. I'm glad I saw this video ( however, I watch every video you make) as I hadn't thought about using this section as a part 107 pilot does once in awhile. Thanks!
Thanks Russ for providing this information and the links for the test.
Thank you. First to bring it up and totally correct on the ease of the test. I also agree that the information is relevant and well presented (on the pilot institute site where I took it). It is important in my mind that people entering this arena be educated and I think this does the trick.
You are right about fixed wing and conventional helo operators. We were talking about this a long time ago and predicting this very thing.
Thanks again for the info. Appreciate you always doing the leg work.
Russ, I just wrote the FAA test. I'm from Canada. The FAA knowledge test is a joke. In Canada, the exam is 35 questions, with a 90 minute time limit to complete the exam. It costs $10.00 for the basic exam. You must pass with a min of 75%. If you fail you must pay and redo. It is renewable every 2 years. Also it covers subjects such as aerodynamics of flight, such as lift, weather, radio communications, etc. Not to mention, in Canada you must register each drone individually at a cost of $5.00 per drone. So ya, you guys got it easy!! If you get caught in Canada without a license or drone cert, the fines start at $1000 to $5000 cdn. So again, you guys got it made.
Thanks for letting us know & keeping it short.
Test is super easy. Any experienced drone pilot should be able to click through and ace it in a few minutes.
Thank you. Just took it and passed it. Seems like basic knowledge stuff that every drone pilot should be knowledgeable on.
easy test. was not aware of it until Iwatched your video. Thanks
Thanks for sharing 👍
