Payments
The Drone Coach provides students with the option of purchasing a part 107 practice exam with quizzes for a one-time charge of $109.00. This fee is not refundable and is solely intended to cover and defer the costs for monthly website hosting and maintenance.

A refund is only approved if a student has not accessed any of the course material or quizzes. We can track when courses are accessed so to qualify for a refund, the student must not have logged into their courses.

We understand that rarely, someone might purchase our course accidentally. This has occurred twice since our inception in 2018. If a refund is approved, the purchaser’s refunded amount will be approximately 3% less than the purchase price to cover our credit card processing fee. We pay this processing fee the moment anyone purchases our online course.

Payments and subscriptions are only available to citizens and resident of the United States. If you reside outside the U.S., you will need to use a VPN to access this website.

Non-Proctored Courses
This is a non-proctored study course and is intended for self-learning students who prefers to study on their own. If you have questions relating to any of the course material, The Drone Coach is not able to provide defined explanations. The Drone Coach will, at its own discretion, provide direction to students to help them find the answers within the course material. Students are encouraged to seek the answers themselves, all of which is available within the course material.
