Pass the FAA Part 107 knowledge test with confidence
The Unmanned Aircraft General (UAG) exam measures mastery across the FAA Airman Certification Standards. The Academy follows that structure, using PSI's published area weights, and trains you against it until your practice results clear our readiness bar.
Almost any small-drone flight that isn't purely recreational falls under Part 107, whether or not you're paid.

What the UAG test looks like
Test logistics can change. These facts were checked on September 22, 2026 against the PSI UAG Information Bulletin, the FAA Airman Knowledge Testing Matrix, 14 CFR Part 107, and the FAA's September 2026 testing advisory. Always confirm with PSI before test day.

An ACS-structured path across every tested area
15 modules organize certification basics, every current UAG subject-matter area, targeted practice, and full exam-readiness.
Part 107 Orientation & Certification Path
What Part 107 is, who needs it, and how the certification path works.
Regulations, Applicability & Remote PIC Responsibility
The legal foundation and the remote pilot's responsibilities.
Operating Rules & Flight Limitations
Answering 'can I legally do this flight?' for any scenario.
Airspace Classification & Airspace Authorization
Class B–G, special-use airspace, and getting authorized.
Sectional Charts & FAA Testing Supplement Skills
Reading FAA figures, legends, and chart symbology fluently.
Aviation Weather Sources
METARs, TAFs, and official briefing sources.
Weather Effects on sUAS Performance
How wind, density altitude, and weather affect your aircraft.
Loading & Performance
Weight, balance, CG, and performance planning.
Operations: Radio, Airports & Crew Coordination
CTAF/UNICOM, airport ops, phraseology, and crew comms.
Emergency Procedures, ADM, Risk Management & Physiology
Decision-making, battery hazards, and fitness for flight.
Maintenance, Inspection & Preflight
Preflight inspection, recordkeeping, and site survey.
Remote ID
Part 89 compliance paths and broadcast requirements.
Operations Over People & Moving Vehicles
Categories 1–4 and the rules for flying over people.
Waivers, Authorizations & Advanced Operations
When you need a waiver vs an airspace authorization.
Final Exam Readiness & Test Strategy
Timing, figure use, and test-day strategy.
Module structure follows the FAA Remote Pilot ACS areas and tasks. Lesson and question content is checked against primary FAA sources and corrected when rules change or an error is found.
Practice that mirrors the real distribution
Full-length and readiness exams draw from each ACS area in the proportions PSI publishes for the UAG — so practice feels like the real thing.
Percentages are PSI's published UAG weights. Question counts are for the Academy's 60-question practice form; PSI publishes percentages only.
What it takes to be called 'Exam Ready'
Every one of these must be true. That's the whole point — the verdict means something.
Core curriculum complete
All required modules and quizzes done — including every high-risk compliance module.
Proven on full exams
3+ full-length exams, latest ≥85%, and 3 of the last 4 at 85%+.
Every ACS area cleared
Each area above its minimum (80% for most, 75% for Loading & Performance).
No red weak areas
No red weak areas, no yellow areas still waiting on review, and no repeated misses on a critical safety or legal concept.
A readiness exam on the clock
At least one readiness exam finished within the 120-minute limit.
The tools that make the difference
Weak-area detection by ACS code
Misses are tracked at the area, task, and concept level — with critical safety concepts weighted more heavily.
FAA figure & chart drills
Practice on figures from the FAA testing supplement (FAA-CT-8080-2H) and on excerpts from a current FAA sectional chart, in a viewer that stays clean in exam mode and adds explanations in review mode. From Oct 26, 2026, the real test also shows current sectional-chart images that aren't in the supplement.
Timed, full-length exams
60 scored practice questions, 120 minutes, current UAG weights — only exams on the current UAG blueprint count toward your readiness gate.
Source-backed content
Built on 14 CFR, the ACS, and FAA testing materials — lessons and questions are tied to their sources, and each source records when we last verified it.
