FAA TRUST test guide exam help

The Federal Aviation Administration requires recreational drone flyers operating under the Exception for Recreational Flyers to pass The Recreational UAS Safety Test, commonly called TRUST, before flying. FAA guidance says recreational flyers must complete TRUST and carry proof of completion while operating. TRUST is free and online through FAA-approved test administrators. The FAA provides the TRUST content to approved administrators, and the administrators provide the online test to recreational flyers. The FAA's current approved administrator list includes Proctorio Incorporated along with organizations such as Academy of Model Aeronautics, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Pilot Institute, UAV Coach, and others.

TRUST is designed as safety education with a completion certificate, not as a conventional pass/fail paid certification exam. FAA guidance states that all FAA-approved TRUST administrators offer the test free, all questions are correctable to 100% before the completion certificate is issued, and after completing TRUST the flyer must download, save, or print the certificate. Test administrators do not keep a record of the certificate, so if a flyer loses it, the flyer must retake TRUST and obtain a new certificate.

TRUST does not replace other recreational drone rules. FAA recreational-flyer guidance says drones weighing 250 grams or 0.55 pounds or more must be registered, recreational flyers must follow airspace and safety rules, fly at or below 400 feet in Class G airspace, use FAA authorization such as LAANC or DroneZone before flying in controlled airspace, give way to other aircraft, and carry proof of registration when required. As of September 16, 2023, drones that require FAA registration also generally must broadcast Remote ID unless flown within a Federally Recognized Identification Area or another valid exception. Non-recreational operations are normally governed by Part 107 rather than the recreational exception.
