Don't be and idiot like me

[isaiahstanley]

I am in the process of starting my aerial photography business and have been flying drones for more than 3 years. I worked at a hobby shop and knew you only need to pay $5 for registration. Of course when I went to register my Mavic for business use, I came across the Federal Drone Administration. The website looks very professional and I mistakenly bought their "business package" for around $200. DON'T GO TO THIS WEBSITE OR ANY OTHERS LIKE IT. The package promises high quality labels for your drone, but they take a month to arrive and are just from a regular label maker. The "useful study guide" for the part 107 registration is information you can find with better insight on youtube here:

Yup. Been mentioned several times here. What makes matters worse is that there scammer's are now paying for Google and are listed first in search results.
