[QUOTE="Drizzt90, post: 95662, member: 12852"] As far as I can tell with the new LAANC system that’s supposed to go live for recreational flyers today we also have to pass a knowledge test. I know I’m early and it’s the first day, but I can not find basically any info about what I’m supposed to study or where I can take the test. According to drone zone these are the new rules for me to fly: [SIZE=5][B]Safety Guidance[/B][/SIZE] To fly under [URL='https://www.faa.gov/uas/recreational_fliers/']The Exception for Recreational Flyers[/URL], you must: [LIST] [*]Register your drone [*]Fly only for recreational purposes [*]Follow the safety guidelines of a community based organization [*]Keep your drone within the visual line of sight or use a visual observer [*]Give way and do not interfere with any manned aircraft [*]Get prior authorization before operating in controlled airspace [*]Fly at or below 400’ in uncontrolled airspace [*]Comply with all airspace restrictions [*]Pass an aeronautical knowledge and safety test [/LIST] I googled the last point and all I could find was the 2017 remote pilot knowledge test guide. At the end it has suggested readings but I can’t find any of them. What I do find is super crazy lawyer gobbledygook. I need guidance. Thank you for your time. Ps. I did a quick scan to see if this was a recent post to not bother anyone and I did not see this addressed. I’m at work and couldn’t dive to deep. [/QUOTE]
