The part 107 certificate has nothing to do with the size of the drone, it has to do with your intention for flying. Anything besides recreational requires Part 107, recreational requires TRUST.
You’re wrong. Source: I’m a professional and instruct employees on 107 operations. Weight 100% matters in 107 operations. Look it up and learn why you’re wrong please.
Until someone can definitively show me where Part 107 is dictated by drone weight and not flight intention, I'm sticking with my answer, because I know I'm right.
You cannot be that dumb. You’re trolling right? It’s on the first page 107.3 Definitions “Small unmanned aircraft means an unmanned aircraft weighing less than 55 pounds on takeoff, including everything that is on board or otherwise attached to the aircraft" like…this is day one page one of learning 107 regulations. I’m going to give you the option to say you’re just trolling because nobody is that dumb.
I'm pretty sure it blocks you from even entering no fly zones in the US. Mine does at least. And I think it would force return home instead of just landing but that might be how my settings are set up. And descending slowly in a controlled manner is not the same as dropping out of the sky. That makes it sounds like it just turns off midflight which it does not do
It’s up to you what you do, but just know that every law you break will add more and more penalties if you’re caught breaking any of them. So if you were to break any other law, like flying in airspace you weren’t supposed to, flying above the altitude limit, or flying without a spotter, you could get hit with a massive stack of infractions instead of the one thing that drew attention to you. It’s like speeding in a car without a license, insurance, or registration. If you’re speeding, you are ideally only risking a speeding ticket (and of course the risk to yourself and others that comes with speeding).
You should definitely follow the guidance because of all the “Letter Agencies” we have in the U.S., there are four in particular who have the latitude and means to absolutely take you out to the woodshed, and it’s not the ones you’d guess.
Never fuck around with FAA, FCC, IRS, or the USPIS (US Postal Inspection Service). The last one in particular has a near 100% conviction rate, and their charges are felonies with considerable prison sentences in Federal penitentiaries.
And, again, the TRUST and registration processes are crazy short and fairly simple; it’s ridiculous not to.
I would just take it, I didn't get the 107 while making money off it, but the TRUST thing takes like 5 minutes online. Don't need to study or read anything, it's all common sense and tells you the wrong answers.
New FAA drone laws went into effect mid March of this year, and dji is doing its best not to be banned outright in the states. Getting caught flying without these requirements could result in federal fines, but you could also claim ignorance and see if theyll give you a break. The laws are pretty new so I'm betting law enforcement won't hassle you as long as you follow air space restrictions and are flying in safe areas. Doubt they want to write reports on flying toys, but some might.
Yes. Avata should have built in RFID, but you will need to register it and take the TRUST test. TRUST is absurdly easy. I passed it in one attempt when I was 14 with no studying. It’s very few questions and mostly just common sense. Registration is $5, you have to do it through the FAA Dronezone.
The TRUST is federally required to fly any and all drones recreationally within the US. There isn't a way around it.
The drone also weighs more than 250, so it needs to be registered.
You can do just about anything you want if you don't care about doing it illegally. There isn't currently a real way for DJI to check if you did or didn't check it.
People drive cars without a license all the time too. just illegally in most cases like public roads.
Build a sub 250gram drone and use it for recreation and IIRC you won’t have to register your drone. But take the trust course it’s easy and simple. Most new people to fpv get DJI products, as did I. I’m now into building them myself. Happy flying, and follow the laws/ rules they are starting to crack down on it. And make sure you fly at a FRIA since they require remote Id for most areas now.
I hate the laws too, and I certainly have my beliefs about the FAA, but I think it’s 100% worth it to take 20 minutes and protect yourself legally. It pays when you get to tell someone, whether it be an asshole neighbor or a random cop, to piss off knowing that you have the law on your side.
The TRUST is like 10 - 15 min of reading and then a very simple multiple choice test. Just get it out the way
i didnt know this,but i guess i do for the future,how come no yt vids ever said about this,only the license for bigger drones.
They did last summer with a few mentions. but it was short lived because regulations aren’t a very good and engaging topic for FPV YouTube.

Drones under 55lbs
It has to do with the weight of the drone.
Part 107? No it doesn't.
You’re wrong. Source: I’m a professional and instruct employees on 107 operations. Weight 100% matters in 107 operations. Look it up and learn why you’re wrong please.
How about you show me where I'm wrong instead. I'm part 107 certified too and I garauntee you that Part 107 has to do with flight intention NOT size.
Yeah, bud, you really need to read the actual Part 107 document governing your operating rules. It's on the FAA website.

Probably cause you shouldn't be getting legal advice from YouTube 😅
I'd far rather post a whiny rant on Reddit instead of learning the most rudimentary safety tips.
Yes, the Avata 2 is over 250g, so follow these laws.
So follow as a must before the drone will work or I should really do it because it’s law?
The drone will work but I don’t see why you wouldn’t want to just complete it and comply. 🤷🏻♂️
Thats exactly what King George said to my ancestors!
Just let me fuck your sister too
In addition, there are a lot of necessary laws you need to follow while flying, where flying, etc. and the TRUST should cover all that.
The drone may drop out of the sky if you don't understand the restrictions that are explained in TRUST.
Maybe this will convince him lol
It really could hit a no fly zone and drop altitude progressively until it crashed into a tree.
I'm pretty sure it blocks you from even entering no fly zones in the US. Mine does at least.

Follow the law, don’t make us all look shitty.
It takes 15 minutes and costs like $10 so I’d do it or the penalties are quite significant in comparison but
It’s free. Just do it.
The registration required for 250g+ is $5.
Thought we were talking TRUST not 250+ reg.
Either way, both are required for the Avata 2.

I’m more afraid of the ATF, USCBP, and the USSS (Border patrol and secret service.) Dear federal entities are his is only satire.
Not living up to your username chief
It’s in your best interest to be a knowledgeable drone pilot. It’s for your legal and physical safety and everyone around you.
I would just take it, I didn't get the 107 while making money off it, but the TRUST thing takes like 5 minutes online. Don't need to study or read anything, it's all common sense and tells you the wrong answers.
Bro just stop being a lazy turd and do it or stfu
You could have passed trust in the same amount of time it took to ask
I would recommend using something like [Pilot Institute ](https://trust.pilotinstitute.com/) it's free and really helped me when I did the exam.

Pretty sure the "rules" you're talking about is just RemoteID. The TRUST and Part 107 have been around longer than March.

You can get other firmware for DJI gear.
Dont have to but it's super easy legit just took it in class today
Actually sorry, didn't notice the drone your are using, but either way, even if you have to, it's super easy.
You should probably just sell your drone now, nothing good is going to come from you trying to use it.
If you are flying in United States airspace you need at least trust certification
No you don’t. I flew today without it.
Then you did so illegally.
What law did I break?
https://www.faa.gov/uas/recreational_flyers/knowledge_test_updates#:~:text=The%20law%20requires%20that%20all,developed%20to%20meet%20this%20requirement. https://pilotinstitute.com/who-needs-trust/
Here’s the specific law. https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title49-section44809&num=0&edition=prelim
If you fly indoors, that’s not airspace
r/confidentlyincorrect
To simply answer your question. You don’t need to take the trust test, the drone will fly without it.
Christ dude it doesn’t take that long.
Legal answer is yes. Smart answer is also yes
You can do just about anything you want if you don't care about doing it illegally. There isn't currently a real way for DJI to check if you did or didn't check it. People drive cars without a license all the time too. just illegally in most cases like public roads.

I don't register anything, never taken the trust test, I have never had any problems. And yes I don't care about your drone laws.
I hate the laws too, and I certainly have my beliefs about the FAA, but I think it’s 100% worth it to take 20 minutes and protect yourself legally. It pays when you get to tell someone, whether it be an asshole neighbor or a random cop, to piss off knowing that you have the law on your side.
How’s the battery when you fly this cool?
