### 5/5 — A Disciplined Approach to Part 107

*2026-04-19, version 3.38.0*

I used the "Remote Pilot Ground School" app to prepare for my FAA Part 107 exam and passed with a 95%. After serving in the SEAL Teams, I appreciate training that prioritizes actual comprehension over just passing a test. Unlike many prep tools that simply have you memorize practice questions, this app requires you to learn the underlying subject matter. The material is challenging, but the way it reinforces each topic ensures the knowledge actually sticks. My thanks to FlightReady.net for their support and for providing a solid educational foundation.

### 5/5 — Excellent Course, Passed First Try

*2025-08-17*

Beyond impressed with the quality of this course. I never really leave App Store Reviews, but I wanted to take the time here because this course made my Part 107 prep beyond straightforward. I’m also happy that the course will be kept updated, since it’s easy to keep up to date with their flashcards and whatnot.

I spent about 4 days working through the content for about 2-3 hrs per day, plus a day to review and take practice tests. Passed with a 93%. I’d say that a week of steady commitment would be both comfortable and produce similar results.

Also a note to other hopefuls, the other apps I downloaded (won’t mention them here), had numerous inaccuracies and vague questions which didn’t reflect either the test format or content. This app, on the other hand, mirrored it near-exactly. And, while there were some frustrating questions that it asks you, the same is true for the actual exam. I know some people prefer to save money by simply using free online resources, but the cost of the course is equal to the cost of the exam, and the developers will offer a refund if you pass the course reqs and fail the exam. So, I don’t really feel as though it was all that uneconomical.

### 1/5 — Does Not Justify the Price — Be Cautious

*2024-11-18*

I want to warn potential buyers about the misleading pricing strategy of the Remote Pilot app. After purchasing a $49 subscription, I expected full access to the drone pilot exam preparation materials. However, what I received was merely a collection of links to public files, which was not what I anticipated. To make matters worse, I found out later that to access the actual practice tests, I needed to pay an additional $89. This is highly deceptive and unfair. The subscription does not provide unique content and misleads users about what they are paying for. In the end, I found another app offering the same materials and practice tests for only $10, with far better value and organization.

**Developer response:** Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your experience with the app did not meet your expectations, and we appreciate the opportunity to clarify some points regarding our offerings and pricing structure.

First, we want to assure potential users that our pricing is transparent and clearly detailed within the app. The app itself is free to download and provides three options for users to choose from:

1.	Free Basic Test Prep – Access to a limited set of exam questions.

2.	Premium Test Prep ($49) – A comprehensive FAA question bank with detailed explanations, designed to help users prepare for the Remote Pilot exam. As stated clearly in the app, this option does not include training content or lessons.

3.	Ground School ($139) – A full training course, including lessons, instructional videos, and practice exams. 

Users who purchase Premium Test Prep can upgrade to Ground School for $89, ensuring they only pay the difference.

Additionally, free trials are available for both Premium Test Prep and Ground School, allowing users to explore the app’s features before making a purchase decision.

Regarding your concerns, we would like to note:

• Premium Test Prep focuses exclusively on providing a robust question bank with full explanations, not training content. This is explicitly communicated in the app before purchase.

• The claim that Premium Test Prep includes “only links to public files” and PDFs is inaccurate. Our materials consist of proprietary, curated content designed specifically for FAA exam preparation, including over 500 questions, including actual FAA questions, with full explanations. Users can take an unlimited number of practice exams and create customized study sessions using a variety of filtering options. The app also provides detailed metrics and progress statistics to identify and address weak areas. 

• Over the past 12 years, more than 100,000 pilots have used our products successfully, and we take pride in the positive feedback we’ve received.

We understand your frustration and wish to reiterate that we aim to provide value at each tier, offering transparent pricing and clear descriptions of what each option includes. If there is any way we can assist further or improve your experience, please don’t hesitate to reach out directly.

Thank you for your time and for allowing us to address your concerns.

### 5/5 — Best study guide

*2024-08-28, version 3.1.0*

While preparing for part 107 exam I discovered this app. Weather questions are my weakness! This app nails it with explaining right/wrong answers and Visual examples!!! Download this app!

### 1/5 — False 7 Day Free Trial

*2024-01-24, version 2.79.0*

They say they give you a 7 day free trial but they locked all the other sections than the first one I completed. Why? My guess is there is not even 7 days worth of content and if they did not lock the others you could complete them all in the free trial period and realize how easy it is to study with the free FAA Study Guide. 100 dollars is a steep price for an app that won’t even keep a basic promise of a free trial

### 3/5 — Frustrating to use on iPhone

*2023-07-20*

I can tell that these folks put a lot of time and energy into the app, but it’s cumbersome and frustrating to use on a cell phone screen. 

It’s a shame, really, cause it seems well designed otherwise. 

It’s great that they supply all of the supplemental figures with each question, but I found myself constantly scrolling up and down, and having to repeatedly open and close the supplemental diagrams to reread the questions and apply my knowledge toward choosing the right answer. 

This could easily be solved if the developer simply supplied the corresponding figure number from the “Airmen Knowledge Testing Supplement” than is easily purchased or downloadable as a stand alone PDF from many sources. 

Maybe this works more fluidly on an IPad, but I don’t own one.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your thoughtful feedback and for recognizing the effort we’ve put into designing the app. We’re sorry to hear that using the app on a smaller screen felt cumbersome and that the process of navigating between questions and supplemental figures impacted your experience.

We wanted to clarify that the app does display the FAA figure number below each figure (and above the figure when enlarged). This feature is intended to help users reference the figures in the FAA “Airman Knowledge Testing Supplement.” If, for any reason, you were unable to see the figure numbers, we encourage you to reach out to us via the Support button in the app, so we can assist you directly.

Additionally, for your convenience, the FAA Knowledge Test Supplement is available for download through the Library button in the app, as well as on our website. Having this resource on a separate device or as a standalone PDF may help reduce the need to switch back and forth within the app.

We truly appreciate your suggestion and will take it into account as we continue to improve the app. Your input helps us refine the experience for users on all devices. If there’s anything else we can do to enhance your experience, please let us know.

Thank you for using our app and for taking the time to share your thoughts!

### 5/5 — Passed with a 98%

*2023-07-15, version 2.66.0*

I used several apps and websites. I read through the FAA’s PDF, but mostly I used this app. The questions on the app are challenging, but they prepare you for the test. When you miss a question, review, and take time to read the explanations.

### 5/5 — Passed Part 107—95%

*2023-02-14, version 2.58.2*

Really enjoyed the app, prepared me well for the exam. I studied my butt off but the app made it so easy for me to retain & fully understand all the information. There were a few what the questions on the test, but if you prepare well odds are you will do well. 
Thanks for the great app and helping me pass the test with flying colors!

### 5/5 — Great help

*2022-12-30*

I’m entirely new to drones, I haven’t used any other study helps before this app. The app has been great for me as an entry level learner! There are a few things I wish they would talk more about (specifically; I wish there was more material to help me understand the weather chapters.) but considering the frequent updates to the app, they are clearly on top of making this app the best part 107 knowledge test prep app and I’m sure more is to come! I feel that I’ll be ready to take the test after having finished this course! Thanks guys!

*UPDATE* 
I passed with a 92%!!! Thank you!

**Developer response:** Thank you for choosing our course, and best wishes on the exam!

### 5/5 — Passed with an 87

*2021-03-23*

I had zero drone experience but was tasked with getting certified. I exclusively used this app. I did each module. I followed it completely through. I never got lower than a 77 on any module. I scored in the 90s on both stage checks. I did EVERY question and got an 87%. I then did a few days of practice tests never scoring lower than 90. I took my test and received an 87.
