First off I am a horrible test taker. Second, I took Greg’s class and passed Section 107 on my first try and it’s changed my business forever! I have been able to get more clients off of my you tube videos because not a lot of Realtors here in Las Vegas are doing what I’m doing with my drones. Third, I’ve learned a lot about piloting my drone as well as the laws regulating it. I strongly suggest learning about Section 107 and earning the certificate! It’s worth the time and energy! You will learn a lot! The benefits are huge!

During the training I had a couple questions and comments that I posted to Pilot Institute and Greg personally got back to me immediately. Taking the Part 107 and flying drones is a great way to bond with your children. It's also a lot healthier hobby than a lot of other things kids get into these days....and they get an education and skill with their hobby! Great channel, great content. Keep up the great work!!

It's all about the original intent of the flight. They also say you can't post your recreational flights on social media, absolutely false, unless they are monetized! Great video. I hope more channels will clarify this misconception.

I got my 107 2 weeks ago - and my main motivator was as mentioned, "posting to social media". I'd seen the exact Chris and Sara" video mentioned (where they had been contacted by the FAA and told to get their 107 because the advertising revenue on their KZfaq video was enough to make them fall under Part 107 rules). That was enough to get me to learn and take the exam.

Thank you for all the great info Keith. After researching vids from your channel, and also Greg at pilotinstitute, I just bought my first drone two days ago. I've been wanting a drone for quite a while. My choice was a DJI Mini 3 Pro along with the Fly More Pack with extended life batteries. I've already done the TRUST and passed missing no questions. When I get my heavier batteries on Wednesday, I will register my drone for the extra weight batteries putting my drone over the 250g limit. My intentions for now is to fly recreational for fun and cool arial footage for my non-monitized KZfaq channel. I will definitely progress into the Part 107 in the near future and I will use the savings link and pilotinstitute to get there. Greg has already answered questions for me yesterday, about the upcoming Sept 2023 changes. I've already also started logging all drone info starting from the purchase.

If the FAA was primarily concerned with SAFETY, there would not be a distinction between recreation and profit, period. Either drone can fall from the sky. Either pilot can do something stupid (we're human). There is zero difference between the two. The FAA (the government) sees an opportunity to make money. That's where the FAA has a primary concern.
@ImperiumLibertas Ай бұрын
It seems like they're not interested in making money as much as they are interested in making it impossible for recreational drone use so they don't have to spend their budget enforcing the laws.

As an FAA licensed A&P and a recreational pilot I'm adding the 107 to my bucket list. My dad was a pilot, CFI and test pilot in the Army. He taught me to fly fixed and rotor wing. I grew up in Aviation. I fly fixed and rotor wing now since the 70s and have a drone that I'll be flying in the future for not only HAM radio footage live stream and recorded but also for surveying or assessing the damage of weather destruction in the area I live in. Northwest of Florida has plenty to keep us busy. This along with being a freelance meteorologist and advance certified SKYWARN will assist in helping to keep people safe. I do this as a volunteer and never ask for any compensation. When disasters hit, communications go down. When all else fails, HAM radio always works. It is no longer a hobby, it becomes a profession. It's a calling, a calling that Must be answered. Emergency services need to know what happened, how bad it is along with the extent of assistance that must get in to help people in trouble. Video footage from the drone along with HAM radio is a major asset to those in trouble and those providing rescue assistance to them.

Regardless whether you are recreational or 107 it's beneficial to the pilot to know the rules you are suppose to follow. Maybe someday I'll take the test but presently the only benefit I believe would twilight and night flying in areas that require LANNC approval. I have no intention turning my hobbies into a career. I do, however, try to keep my knowledge of the laws current so I don't leave any concrete evidence of the rules I do routinely break. Fly safe!

@Alien Drones I was for drone broadcasting until I started reading municipality extreme extraordinary drone laws. I felt that broadcasting for the FAA to allow you to fly beyond sight without a waiver would be great. However; allowing access to broadcasting by police and municipality purposes will only be used to charge fines. Broadcasting for municipalities will only lead to penalty fees for the coiffures. I am all for making sure that drone flying is done responsibly and broadcasting for the FAA to allow you to fly beyond visual without a waiver would be great. I saw a representative of the FAA say this before. However, municipalities only look to regulate for fee's, and that is why they want to be allowed to receive and monitor broadcasting frequencies for drones. Every municipality, city, and state seems to have its own drone laws.

There's plenty of situations that can and do come up when you're flying that aren't related to a "career" but are outside of the FAA's very narrow definition of "recreational". What you get issued from the FAA is a "Remote Pilot Certificate". Nothing about "commercial" in the name. Instead of thinking of part 107 as being a "commercial drone pilot", think of it as being a "licensed drone pilot" because that's what it is. Example: Years ago I was flying for fun over my dad's property to get footage of a huge tree he's got. I always wanted to get a look at the top of the tree so I di now that I had a drone. After that short fight he asked me to check out the neighbor's (an elderly widow) roof to check the condition. Of course I did it, only took a couple minutes and helped out a neighbor. There was zero intent to get paid so it wasn't "commercial" or part of a "career" but it would be "illegal" today as the "intent" of the flight doesn't meet the FAA"s criteria for "recreational" flight.

I’m getting that I need to get a 107. My intent in many flights is to take aerials of public places to post to Google, so that people may have a good idea of what an area looks like. Even though I’m doing it for fun, there’s more to it than that.

Derek e count, I want to know. Where do you get the 107 permit or benefits or what? The FAC want you to have. I basically do it for recreational recording myself. Doing a remote control RC on 110 scale. Or my C do or my quad S LTL TZ 400 Suzuki.
@jeffreyspaulding5849 Жыл бұрын
Keith. There seems to be a lot of talk on the FAA drone zone about conferences and meetings about new VLOS. Any new and updated rules you can do a video on? It’s been quite some time since the last “rule” update video.
@AlienDrones Жыл бұрын
Indeed, seems to be a lot of chatter on BVLOS if you're law enforcement or a delivery service and some talk about "inspections and agricultural" applications, but I'll keep my ears open. The initial Remote ID deadline is coming up so I expect this will start that conversation up again, especially with the lawsuit against the FAA for RID recently being dismissed...

Very interesting @5:00 , a bit hard to decipher the exact specifics of the sequence of events mentioned, but at the point where you decide to record your kid playing in the game - how does that then not require part107? The intent is to record the game, not to have fun. Essentially, how does this differ from the classic example of needing a part107 license to be able to take a look at your gutters? Is it just the intent at time of takeoff that matters, i.e. I can go check my gutters on a whim while returning from a flight for fun?
@peterellis4262 Жыл бұрын
My first drone was ordered just a day ago. The BVLOS issue is a critical one to me, as our homestead is almost entirely woodland. On most of our site I probably can't maintain a visual line of sight for much more than 50 feet or so :) Certainly I can't do an overflight of our property while maintaining VLOS even though the drone would be at maximum distance perhaps a quarter mile away. We're on 20 acres, 660 ft x 1320 ft. I would hope I could qualify for the BVLOS waiver/exception in this circumstance
@AlienDrones Жыл бұрын
Unfortunately, it is very unlikely that you will be able to get a waiver for BVLOS. It is the most difficult FAA waiver to get. BVLOS waivers are granted to only those who meet a criteria involving the safety standards and track record of the pilots conducting the mission (usually a pretty big commercial outfit with a fleet of drones). Additional safety precautions are likely required as well, such as an onboard detect and avoid (DAA) system to automatically avoid air traffic or large birds while in flight and setting up a mission control station on site to monitor the drone during flight. It would be awesome if you could get one and I would think Pilot Institute could help with the process, and I'd love to hear the results if you do apply... 🤙🤙

I am still on the fence about purchasing a camera drone, I want to make travel videos, but many of the places I want to fly to get footage are in National Parks and there is a firm no drones allowed in NP with some steep consequences. Personally I can understand not flying over Old Faithful and annoying people, but there are other places without any people at all that should be allowed. Or maybe the parks service should allow drones only for a one hour period on select weekdays and during the off season i.e. winter, there should not be a blanket prohibition on flying drones.

Thanks for the question and comments! Unfortunately I don't have any direct experience with Drone Pilot Ground School but I'm confident they are a legitimate resource and would be very beneficial in becoming an informed, responsible UAV pilot for sure! IMHO it may come down to a personal preference since both are very experienced and dedicated organizations... Good Flying!
