FAA Regulations & Rules for Recreational RC Pilots

This video will go over FAA regulations and rules for recreational RC pilots.

The www.FAA.gov website has useful information on what needs to be done to fly a drone in the United States.

There are three main regulations that recreational radio control (RC) pilots must follow. Pilots must register their drones. For recreational pilots only one registration number is needed for all of their drones.

Next, all pilots must take the TRUST (The Recreational UAS Safety Test), a free exam that takes around 30 minutes to complete.

Finally the remote ID regulation was finalized and published on Sept 16, 2023. Due to a delay in remote ID broadcast modules, enforcement of the regulation will not occur until after March 16, 2024.

The FAA also discusses various rules recreational pilots must follow, such as flying in uncontrolled airspace and keeping your model within visual sight.

Finally, I have a discussion on where you can fly your RC plane.
