UD PCS instructor Paige Fitzgerald began flying drones in 2016, and she has shared her knowledge by teaching many sessions of the award-winning UD PCS Professional Drone Pilot: Ground School and FAA Part 107 Test Prep program. Drawing on her experience as both a drone pilot and an instructor, she has seven reasons why people should take her class.
1. Drones are fun
If you have already flown drones, you know how much fun it is. You’ll never see somebody flying a drone who doesn’t think it’s fun to do. It’s a blast.
2. People really like the class
I’m proud to say that we’ve had incredible feedback from our students who really like what we have done. Our students have a great time and come out of the class feeling really good about what they have learned.
3. Take the certification test with confidence
Probably the most important reason I can give you to take this class is that if you want to make money flying drones, you must have the FAA Part 107 remote pilot certificate. If you get paid to fly drones without the certification, you are doing it in violation of federal law.
4. Add a professional certification to your resume
Whether you are starting out your career or trying to change paths, it’s always good to have a new professional certification. When you receive your drone certification, you can impress your future employers and make your job application stand out.
5. Add a source of income to your household
If you have been noticing people taking real estate pictures and getting hired for other small jobs here and there and are wondering how you can make some extra money flying drones, this is a good class for you. This is a fun way to get that extra source of income for your household.
6. Build your street cred and professional networks
Drones are everywhere, and it is clear who knows what they are talking about and who does not. If you can show that you know what you are talking about when you communicate with other drone pilots, you will build your networks and be taken seriously as a professional.
7. Learn from my mistakes
I can tell you as a person who started out with no experience whatsoever, I spent a lot of 2016 and 2017 making very stupid mistakes and very expensive mistakes. By telling you what not to do, I will save you some money before you invest it into buying equipment and running a business.
