So I wanted to create this thread as a welcome source to new drone pilots, particularly those who may already wish to go for their Part 107 License with the FAA (as I am a rather new pilot myself who already wishes to go for his P107L and also didn't see any threads that already existed that had any compiled sources of study materials):
Get your FAA TRUST Certificate of Completion to legally fly drones for recreational reasons in the United States.
trust.pilotinstitute.com
and ~ do not forget to register if your drone weighs (greater than) > 250 grams -or- > 0.55 lbs (also, you're actually registering yourself, not individual drones, your ONE registration covers ALL of your recreational drones! You apply the ONE (same) registration marking (number) to all of your drones!){if it asks for a drone serial number ~ select NA}
Now the fun part. I have downloaded a plethora of "study materials", primarily based off of and from the official FAA site, somewhere "spider-webbed" off of the basic/"stock" links I have supplied above... I cannot attest to the organizational skills I have for these materials, especially having not yet actually studied them myself, but I do think I have all the pertinent materials for Part 107 Study... Since I have already downloaded all the PDFs, I have compressed them into a convenient compressed file for myself, and figured I would share that here..! Now I personally use 7z (7zip) so if you don't already have that yourself, you will have to grab that from here: Download in order to extract it (it's like a better version of .zip for those who do not know).
That should be current as of ~ 9 JANUARY 2022. I do believe it will be everything necessary to study for and successfully obtain a Part 107 License with the FAA. Other valuable links to follow, for Part 107 preparation, application, and beyond (flying/use):
FAADroneZone (register your 107 drones [ALL 107 drones MUST be individually registered and marked regardless of weight])
The following links I do believe will (or could) be potentially helpful for any flyer (recreational and/or Part 107) do bear in mind some may be redundant and you simply need to pick your favorite:
YIKES that’s expensive…. As a Private Pilot I used the FAAsafety.gov to take my test. Granted you need to have a Private pilot license ( certification ) or higher to login. the only coast I incurred was I had to visit my PPC Flight instructor to sign off on the application….
Giving videos to my wife who posts them on facebook. If she monetizes and makes money with them will I need my 107?
See is on FB all the time communicating with extended international family. She was showing video I had taken with my mini 3 and of course shared with her. Recently she was encouraged by a friend to make some reels and she was excited and showed them to me.

If you go out to fly just for fun and then she takes it and posts it …no problem. But if you do that regularly you’d have a hard time claiming you were doing it for fun. The ultimate question is did you go out to fly purely for fun?
