If you are looking to legally fly a drone for commercial purposes in the United States, you need to obtain a Remote Pilot Certificate issued by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
To be eligible for the FAA Part 107 Remote Pilot Certificate, you must be at least 16 years old, pass a TSA background check, and pass the FAA aeronautical knowledge exam.
The FAA aeronautical knowledge exam covers various topics such as airspace classification, weather effects on drone operations, emergency procedures, and FAA regulations.
Many online and in-person training courses are available to help you prepare for the exam and understand the rules and regulations for flying drones in the national airspace.
Once you have obtained your Remote Pilot Certificate, you will need to renew it every two years by passing a recurrent knowledge test to ensure you are up-to-date with the latest regulations and best practices.
