When you first start out flying drones, you will need to get a recreational drone certificate from the FAA to ensure you are safely and legally flying in the United States. It's a simple, online test that takes about 30 minutes. In this video we'll cover how to access and complete this test to receive your certificate.
This applies to all drones under 250g or around .55 lbs. If your drone is larger you will need to register it and get more advanced certifications. We'll cover some of this as it relates to commercial video production in later videos.
Learn how to get your recreational drone certificate from the Federal Aviation Authority.
What is TRUST?
The law requires that all recreational flyers pass an aeronautical knowledge and safety test and provide proof of passage if asked by law enforcement or FAA personnel. The Recreational UAS Safety Test (TRUST) was developed to meet this requirement.
