FAA: Part 107 sUAS Drone Study Guide 2024

[@MLCurry]

Taking my test tomorrow wish me luck

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

Good luck dude, I believe in you. YOU GOT THIS. Let me know how it goes!

[@brandonnn6400]

how did it go

[@MLCurry]

Passed with no issue airspace restrictions and charts where heavy so anyone looking to take the test needs to take alittle more in depth look at that material

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

HEYYY CONGRATULATIONS! Thats what I've heard as of recently. I'm super happy for you. Now if you haven't already you need to log into the FAA IACRA website and you will have to apply for a Remote Pilot Certificate under Pilot Application type. Then once application is submitted you will get a email in a few days with your temporary airman certificate while they send you the real one in the mail which will take a few weeks!

[@lewinSiko]

Congrats I am studying for mine . I’ve been procrastinating . Than an for the pointers

[@robertames4055]

You win the internet!! I believe you put out the most useful video on the internet with this!! Thank you so much .

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

Shoot, I'm glad I can help out! I try my best! Good luck on passing the test!

[@scubasteve5659]

@@JeffreyBaranJr. what did you make on the test? just curious. im not trying to brag im kinda just proud of myself i made a 97%, but im super ocd with studying and tests. i studied probably over 100 hours and can honestly say that wasnt the right thing to do. a lot of my questions on the test wernt in the study guide.

[@VLo_Visions]

Very helpful! Please make more videos for the test.

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

Thank you! Will do. Are you a realtor by chance?

[@HollyFischerArt]

This is fabulous, Aishu.

[@DougFrantz]

As you said, things change. But 15 years ago when I did some military drone training we were told the cost of damage of the drone counted towards FAA reporting of accidents. I get it that just running your drone into a tree could qualify at that point, but just passing on what we were taught.

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

I appreciate the info! Wow, 15 years ago you were doing drone training. What were drones like then?

[@DougFrantz]

@@JeffreyBaranJr. I just flew the little RQ-11B. It is a neat little hand launched drone. Some of the fun differences were plotting a flight plan for beyond LOS missions. Haven't flown since, but going for 107 next week.

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

@@DougFrantz Very cool man! Best of luck with the test and let me know how it goes if you get a chance.

[@DougFrantz]

@@JeffreyBaranJr. Passed this morning with an 80%... but passing is passing!

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

@@DougFrantz Heyyyy, congratulations man! Super stoked for you!

Taking my test today , wish me luck Thanks for the great useful information

[@lancebland1308]

Very Excellent Video!!

[@sauceboibeats1868]

Great video! I'm looking to begin studying for mine and came across this video. Very easy to understand and I did watch again and take notes. You have simplified this for us and I appreciate you.

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

I'm glad I could help out!

[@derose2026]

Great video. .55 through (less than) 55lbs

[@davcam1970]

I was tripped up on this question on a sample test. The answer had both max weight of 55 lbs and less than 55lbs. I selected "max weight of 55lbs" and got it wrong. Can someone clarify?

[@derose2026]

.55lbs (250g) through 49.9 lbs essentially. Anything 55lbs and over is no bueno

[@KevinDC5]

Thanks for the info! I am a private pilot and have been curious as to how difficult the p107 could be, especially since i have heard the weather and airspace sections are nearly identical.

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

Hey glad to hear that I can help out!

[@ericbishop499]

If you are current - go into a testing facility and talk to them - you shouldn't have to take the test or at least the majority of the test... just a sign off.

[@Giambis]

I made an #82 on my private pilot several years ago and made a 96 on this drone test without even studying it. The regulations are the only thing that’s different versus regulations for general aviation.

[@Delivery111]

Airspace and Read map I have problems with?

[@barisedwards]

🙌🏽 Perfect guide for a quick study session. I’m watching/listening 1-2 times a day until my exam 💪🏽🤙🏽

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

Thank you!😁 Study those Sectional charts also!

[@BotasULU]

You’re the best thank you very much. Appreciate your time.

[@DarkMan758]

Respect JB this is great I'll take my test in few months

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

Absolutely glad I can help!

Taking my test Tuesday! Will be flying the Matrice 30t

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

Oh nice! Let me know how it goes!

[@SterpDawg-cy7zf]

Is the test online?

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

@@SterpDawg-cy7zf no it's in person and cost $175

[@ramiroserratojr.7496]

how did it go?

[@Master0fHyrule]

Do I need a license for the Hover X1 as it's a "Selfie Camera?"

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

Im not sure about that one. at the end of the day a drone is a drone you might just need a trust test.

[@Master0fHyrule]

@JeffreyBaranJr. I did get a Trust certificate.

[@Raycinjaycin]

Only need a license if you plan on being paid for your selfie.

[@JohnStark72]

Does one have to have lights on the drone if one isn't going to operate it at night?

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

If you only plan on flying during the day, you don't need lights.

[@michaelmcvicar63]

Under the new flights over people waiver you need one at all times. Check on the specifics for the waiver.

[@celestepapa5651]

Hi Jeffrey this is very helpful but I just want to clarify the PIC from my studies it's Pilot in Command. Peace!

[@AZtown]

Im pretty sure you can fly at night now, if equipped with anti collision lights. Is the 24 month retest of part 107 the same as the first, classroomor online

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

You are right sir, the information provided here is based on my knowledge from previous years, I went ahead and deleted that part out so there will be no confusion.

[@jasonstewart8535]

thank you Jeffrey I just came across the video will you be doing more video's like this?

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

I absolutely will, yes sir.

[@jasonstewart8535]

Do know where I can take practices exams? to see where my weak areas are. @@JeffreyBaranJr.

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

Yes sir, you can Google them all day long by just typing in "part 107 practice tests" but I will say that this link right here has been my go-to for people when they ask that question. Enjoy thedronecoach.com/faa-part-107-practice-test/

[@deevamassey1501]

Thank you. Can you do more please?

[@troytmg]

So there's no map reading or figuring out controĺled air airspace on the the test?

[@GilbertM3]

Thank you for this ! where do you recommend taking practice test on/at online ?

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

Just do a quick Google search of "Part 107 drone tests" I recommend trying out alot of different tests and finding which one feels best to you! Then take it over and over again until you feel confident.

[@elnene174]

Awesome video man, thank you!!!!!

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

No problem! Good luck.

[@taxxfree4792]

Thank u I’m going to take my test next month

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

Best of luck! You got this

[@DiyintheGhetto]

The question I don't see people answering if for taking the 107 test is " What happens if you fail it?" Are you able to take it again right away or do you have to wait, Or If you fail does that mean you can not get your 107 license ever? I myself like many other wonders about this question.

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

Rules are changing all the time, but the last I heard you have to wait 2 weeks to retest and pay the $175 fee again unfortunately

[@DiyintheGhetto]

@@JeffreyBaranJr. Wow that's costly. But I do understand it.

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

My biggest recommendation is to study up as much as possible and be as confident as possible then take the test. I believe in you! Don't let it scare you!

[@DiyintheGhetto]

@@JeffreyBaranJr. It has been some years sense I flow a quad or Tri copter. I use to build them not really fly them but build them for other people. I'm way rusty when it comes to flying. I set out and took the Recreational UAS Safety Test and passed it a day ago so I can start to learn to fly again. That test was nurve recking a little for me. But I manage to get all but 3 right then the 3 ask me to correct then as I was taking each part of the 4 part test. But I manage to do it. patience is not my strong suit. Being hyper all the time. Over the year I learn to manage it but It did over time it creeps up on me when doing test.

[@iabsoriw433]

In this study guide , how much of the test will this cover?

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

This is a study guide for important key terms and numbers. As someone stated in the comments his test was heavy on sectional chart questions. But every test is different. Try to understand every aspect to ensure you pass the first time.

[@themonopolyguy8126]

Perfectly simple 🙏

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

Glad you think so!

@@JeffreyBaranJr. thanks I heard they over look them sometimes

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

Hey so after doing more research in your case you cannot apply for a certificate for up to one year after your final conviction. That being said how long has it been for you?

@@JeffreyBaranJr. I do not have a conviction I’m fighting a marijuana case

Great information, thank you!

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

Glad I can help!

[@TechnicalSoccerClub]

Good info but maybe I misheard but isn’t latitude north and south?

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

The lines running North to South are called lines of longitude, while the lines running East to West are called lines of latitude

[@amiraziz]

What's the 30min i reference to? From the important numbers list

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

the FAA allows drone pilots to fly during twilight, which is 30 minutes before sunrise and 30 minutes after sunset. However, there are some requirements that must be met

[@Kirkloin]

Thanks for the video bro!

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

Absolutely!

[@Arielt0288]

This video lives in me!

[@kimfyffe2dronevideos74]

I was thinking flying at night was OK with the right light I have done it I didn't know there was a time so did I break the law ?

[@markbyfield7050]

I’m not sure about recreational regs ( pretty sure you can’t without 107 training) but under 107 you can fly at night with anti collision strobe.

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

Drone pilots operating under Part 107 may fly at night, over people and moving vehicles without a waiver as long as they meet the requirements defined in the rule. Airspace authorizations are still required for night operations in controlled airspace under 400 feet. The information provided here is based on my knowledge from previous years. I went ahead and deleted that section from the video.

[@weekender38]

Well done!

[@Elevatemefpv]

This was an awesome summary! Thank you, like you mentioned drone rules will be changing in years to come. I want to lock mine in early! Keep up the great work!

How hard is that test? I have a reading problem and they said they would read it to me, but it something is really hard

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

@@rpcpressurecleaningandsoft2535 some are easier then others. Not all tests are the same. So I can't necessarily answer that for you but you should definitely study for 10-20 hours

@@jacobberen9723 I haven't personally looked for study material for a while so unfortunately not. Just try to find stuff that has been posted or updated this year since rules constantly chnage

Good Tutorial New subscribed, I need FAA licenses help please thank you

[@jezzelite6316]

Different people say different things, supposably it should be in between .55 and 55.0 pounds . Not on .55 to 55.0 pnds

[@BlueRidgeMountainDrones]

UAS under 55 pounds falls under 107 rules. 55 pounds and over is in another category of drones.

[@TroyCunninghamPhotography]

[@usmcmsgt5487]

400 ft.... is laughable because I see so many people doing way more than that and even going out of VLOS.

[@JeffreyBaranJr.]

I know, I have friends with drones that definitely don't obey the rules
