Regulations
1. A drone is equipped with a Remote ID broadcast module rather than built-in Standard Remote ID. Which of the following correctly describes the information this module broadcasts?
Why: The rules distinguish between the two compliance methods. A Standard Remote ID drone broadcasts identification and location information about the drone and the control station, while a Remote ID broadcast module broadcasts identification and location information about the drone and its take-off location. The control-station option describes what a Standard Remote ID drone does, not a broadcast module. The remote-pilot-position option is not a recognized broadcast element under either method.
2. A small UAS accident results in serious injury to a person. Within what time must the remote pilot in command report it to the FAA?
Why: Section 107.9 requires the remote pilot in command to report to the FAA, within 10 calendar days, any operation that results in serious injury to a person, any loss of consciousness, or damage to property other than the small unmanned aircraft unless the cost of repair or the fair market value of the property is $500 or less. 30 days and 24 hours are not the Part 107 deadline.
3. Which of the following is NOT a rule that can be waived under the Part 107 waiver process?
Why: 14 CFR 107.205 lists the sections a certificate of waiver can cover, including visual line of sight (107.31) and yielding the right of way (107.37(a)). The accident-reporting rule, 107.9, is not on that list, so an operation that causes serious injury, loss of consciousness, or property damage over $500 must be reported within 10 calendar days whatever waivers the operator holds.
4. A LAANC request is approved with a ceiling of 300 feet. What does this ceiling value refer to?
Why: LAANC ceilings are expressed in feet above ground level, ranging from 0 to 400 feet, and are never stated in mean sea level. The MSL option is wrong because the LAANC system and the UAS facility map use AGL values exclusively; converting to MSL would require knowing the local terrain elevation, which varies by location and is not how the ceiling is defined. The airport field elevation option is wrong for the same reason: the ceiling is a generic AGL value applied to the ground surface, not a fixed offset from a specific airport elevation. Pilots must account for local terrain when determining the actual MSL altitude at which the 300 ft AGL ceiling is reached.
5. A small unmanned aircraft registration issued through FAA DroneZone under Part 48 is normally valid for:
Why: Registration under Part 48 is valid for 3 years unless it ends earlier under the applicable rules. Renew it before expiration to keep operating an aircraft that requires registration. This question concerns Part 48 registration through DroneZone, not the separate Part 47 aircraft-registration system.
6. A remote PIC delegates the preflight inspection to a visual observer. The visual observer completes the inspection and reports that everything looks good. The PIC then independently discovers a cracked landing gear strut. Under the rules, who bears the responsibility for ensuring the aircraft was in a condition for safe operation?
Why: Before each flight the remote pilot in command must check the small UAS to determine whether it is in a condition for safe operation (14 CFR 107.15), and the remote pilot in command is directly responsible for the operation (107.19). A visual observer can help with the inspection, but that does not move the responsibility: it stays with the remote pilot in command, not with the observer or shared equally.
7. A 15-year-old wants to fly a small unmanned aircraft under Part 107 as a remote pilot in command. Which statement is correct?
Why: To be eligible for a remote pilot certificate a person must be at least 16 years old (14 CFR 107.61(a)); passing the knowledge test does not change that, and there is no parental-consent exception. Until then they cannot act as remote pilot in command, although Part 107 does allow a person without a certificate to manipulate the controls under the direct supervision of a certificated remote pilot in command who can immediately take over (14 CFR 107.12(a)(2)).
8. A remote pilot in command deviated from Part 107 operating rules to address an in-flight emergency. What is the pilot's obligation regarding reporting the deviation?
Why: Under 14 CFR 107.21(b), a remote PIC who deviates from a rule to meet an in-flight emergency must, upon request of the Administrator, send a written report of that deviation. The report must be in writing; the rule does not say how the request is made. A report is owed if the FAA asks, so the 'no reporting of any kind' option is wrong, and the 10-calendar-day deadline belongs to the accident-reporting rule (107.9: serious injury, loss of consciousness, or property damage over $500), not to emergency deviations.
9. (Refer to FAA-CT-8080-2H, Figure 23.) The note printed on the chart for BULLDOG C MOA states that the MOA:

From the FAA testing supplement (FAA-CT-8080-2H). Tap the image to open it full size.
Why: On Figure 23, the special-use airspace labeled BULLDOG C MOA carries a printed note that reads 'EXCLUDES AIRSPACE 1500' AGL AND BELOW.' The unit is explicitly AGL, not MSL, so the option stating 1500' MSL is a misread of the unit. The value 1300' does not appear in the note; it may be confused with the 41/13 ceiling-over-floor figure printed on the Savannah Class C airspace nearby.
10. An applicant fails the Part 107 Initial Aeronautical Knowledge Test. What is the minimum waiting period before the applicant may retake it?
Why: Under 14 CFR 107.71, an applicant who fails a knowledge test may not reapply for 14 calendar days. Do not confuse this with recurrent requirements: remote pilots no longer take a recurrent knowledge test, and certificate holders maintain aeronautical knowledge recency by completing the FAA's online recurrent training every 24 calendar months.
This test: Regulations 6 · Operations 2 · Airspace 2. The real FAA exam is weighted Regulations 48%, Operations 25%, Airspace 20%, Weather 5%, Loading and performance 2%; this practice set does not yet match that mix, so give regulations and operations extra study.
