New pilot here

[CodyP]

Hey guys, after much debate I finally bought a decent drone...mavic air. Had an older cheapo $30 quadcopter that was almost harder to fly than a real helicopter but all the tech in these new drones make it so easy a 4yr old can fly em.
not looking to do too much with it at this point, just some videos of our camping locations, maybe some boating action and whatnot. My buddy is a realtor and wants me to shoot some video/pictures for his listings but then I’d have to get a commercial license and go take a pricey test and stuff so we will see how that pans out.

Hard to not fall in love with Coeur d'Alene. The 107 exam is neither hard nor expensive. Do it! Help your buddy out, and have fun while you're at it. You'll develop as a pilot, and a photographer.

Glad you've joined us!

Thanks everyone. Yeah the more I look I to it I think I will and CDA is ugly, humid, and a horrible place to move to....so those that are thinking about moving here need to rethink it. Haha

Welcome to the forum from the woods of Maine!
I am also seriously considering taking the 107 exam to help my wife’s realtor girlfriend.
The test is $150 and you need to get 70% to pass.
There is an app called Remote Pilot FAA Test Prep by Flightready that has received great reviews, it’s less than online courses but it does cost $40.00......
Some say you don’t need any prep but I’m not a gambler so if I decide to take the test I’ll buy the app!

Welcome and enjoy. Nice upgrade for sure!
