Newly updated for 2026, including new FAA questions and topics.  This app will prepare you for the FAA drone exam by testing your knowledge with over 500 questions, including actual FAA questions and questions covering all of the new regulations relating to night operations, Remote ID, and operations over people. This app does not include any training content, but does provide explanations for all answers. We offer two apps to prepare for the FAA drone exam: ◗ Remote Pilot Test Prep (this app) - Practice questions to prepare for the exam ◗ Remote Pilot Ground School - A complete training course plus practice questions While it is possible to learn the material tested on the exam by "getting the answers wrong," and memorizing the correct answer, if you are new to drone flying, we recommend our Remote Pilot Ground School app, which includes a complete course covering every area tested on the exam. If you are undecided on which app is the right app for your needs, you can purchase this app and later upgrade to the complete Ground School via in-app purchase for the price difference. Your purchase of this app also provides you with free access via the web so you can prepare for the exam on any device. ◖◖CONFIGURE CUSTOM SESSIONS◗◗ Use Study Mode to create question sessions based on topics, session size, and your overall mastery.
