    Great job! Drone launch Academy and community group have totally help me learn and grow my business. The two resources are so valuable. I just started flying drones last year. Immediately seen the value and opportunity. I started my business with the help of Drone to 1k class. I have my own website and have clients contact me via my website.

    Look forward to more incredible podcasts.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

YDQA: Ep 143- "Did the Part 107 Test Just Change?”
Q: Does the new Beyond Visual Line of Sight proposed rule mean that there's a new drone license test?
No additional individual test is currently planned. The proposed Part 108 approach would certify companies as a whole rather than individual operators, and the rule is not finalized.
YDQA: Ep 143- "Did the Part 107 Test Just Change?”
Q: So did the part 107 exam just change?
Yes. The exam weighting changed on September 29, 2025, and starting October 26, 2026, some chart questions show the relevant sectional-chart excerpt directly in the question. The 60 scored questions, three answer choices, two-hour limit, and 70% passing threshold remain unchanged.
YDQA: Ep 130- "Can You Fly Over People Without a Waiver? Wingtra’s Category 3 Breakthrough Explained”
Q: Can you describe the new payloads and the practical use cases they enable, especially for critical infrastructure like runways?
The Inspect payload enables high-resolution, millimeter-scale analysis for things like PCI pavement crack inspections on runways, reducing shutdown time from 8–10 hours to a much faster, localized survey workflow, with AI-driven processing to extract actionable reports.
YDQA: Ep 130- "Can You Fly Over People Without a Waiver? Wingtra’s Category 3 Breakthrough Explained”
Q: What has Wingtra achieved recently in this Category 3 space and what does it mean for operators?
Wingtra is the only airframe released in 2025 that is certified and fully integrated for Category 3 operations over people without a waiver, with a parachute add-on to address safety concerns and regulatory expectations.
YDQA: Ep 138- "What Does It Take to Build and Manage a National Drone Program?”
Q: How did you identify the key qualities you looked for when building the national UAS team?
Beyond flying skills, we sought curiosity, adaptability, willingness to learn the broader geospatial workflow, and the ability to work across multiple offices and teams to support larger projects.
