For Professionals and Enthusiasts

DroneUp was designed by pilots, for pilots.

We are committed to continuous education and safe operations. Through this website and our free online training, you can learn how to fly drones safely and legally in the National Airspace System. We'll guide you through the basics of becoming a safety-conscious Responsible Community Pilot (RCP). Earning your RCP will allow you to fly community missions, such as lost people, lost pets, disaster assessment and post-weather events. When you're ready, we will help you get your Part 107 Remote Pilot certificate from the FAA. But before any of that, you can immediately join chats and discussion forums to share ideas with like-minded community pilots. Best of all, joining the DroneUp pilot community is completely free.
