    FAA Part 107 sUAS Recurrent Test ~

    The FAA had/has nothing to do with the school I payed for. I have since passed the test. And also since my post, the company is sending my reimbursement check.

    FAA Part 107 sUAS Recurrent Test ~

    I recently passed my recurrent test - however, I missed one question two many the first time I took it! This is just a heads-up. I bought the lifetime course from FAA Part 107 Test, FAA Part 107 Study Guide, Part 107 Practice Test which guarantees if you fail that they reimburse the cost of...

    Re-License or not to re-license

    iOS 11 public beta and DJI Go not a good mix

    Really scared.

    Lightsped, I started with the Phantom 2, I have done every update on my 2, 3Pro and now the Mavic. I have had one issue and that was a bad motor that DJI replaced for no charge. A LOT of what you read is “operator error”. Of course there is always a possibility of a lemon, but it is not as...
