The EASA licence is mandatory for ALL drone pilots in Europe
EU Regulation 2019/947 states that since January 1, 2021, ANY person operating a drone weighing more than 250 grams or a drone with a camera in the European Union MUST register as an operator, undergo training and obtain a certificate of remote pilot competency.
The fine for flying without a licence ranges from €500 to €225 000, depending on the country
To legally fly drones in Europe, you must first pass the EASA exam
- But where do I get the material to study?

Instructor
My name is Alexander Belogaev, I will be your instructor for this exam preparation course and my goal is to get you up in the sky quickly and safely. I am a professional drone pilot and industry expert, and like you, I started with zero knowledge about everything related to aviation.
My journey from zero to hero has been long and challenging, so my main goal in this course is to get rid of the unnecessary and give you the information about the EASA Regulations in a straightforward and clear way.
My Licenses
My approach
There are many ways to pass the EASA exam: from free and short YouTube videos that will give you the bare minimum you need and may be based on information from three years ago, to individual classes costing hundreds of euros. which will give you all the details about drones. My goal in this course is to give you the middle ground.
I give you practical information that you will need as a beginner pilot. In my videos I will tell you what is important and useful to know as a drone pilot. Even if you don’t need this knowledge to pass the exam.
This is a comprehensive course covering everything you need to know to become an experienced remote pilot and pass the EASA exam. This is NOT a review course that teaches you to memorize answers. I do not believe in “just passing the test”. I want you to become an educated drone pilot who can plan and operate safe missions.
The EASA neither certifies schools or drone training courses, nor does it provide actual test questions to schools. Their goal, like mine, is to get you to understand the materials and not memorize the answers. When my students encounter a question that was not included.in the course, I revise and update my courses to focus more on those areas.

A few steps to YOUR license
Theory study
- Learn the facts that are really important to a drone pilot (e.g., you can’t fly above 120 m).
- Learn the facts that have no relevance to a drone pilot but will be on the test (e.g., how to read the terminal airfield forecast).
- Learn fairly complex concepts that you will definitely need as a future pilot (e.g., how to read airspace maps).
- Wrap your head around it so you are ready to pass the final test.

To assess the students’ ability and knowledge to effectively understand the topics contained in the course, the course includes a series of online quiz questions at the end of each module.

The exam
After studying the theory and practicing for the final test, you are ready to take the real exam on the website of the national civil aviation authority.
Answers to Frequently Asked Questions
Can I have training and take the exam independently, without enrolling on this course?
Do you like a difficult path? It is your choice.
Yes, you can independently get all the necessary information by studying the regulations 2019/945 and 2019/947, the theory available on the EASA website, and the national civil aviation authority of the country where you plan to take the exam. It is essential to note that in that case you won’t be able to contact a personal assistant for support in challenging or unclear situations.
For this reason, purchasing the training course might be a preferable option, ensuring you receive a full range of information, explanations, and assistance from experienced professionals.

Additionally, I utilized YouTube resources for extra video tutorials that helped reinforce the knowledge I acquired. As a result, I easily passed the drone pilot license exam for EASA A1-A3 in less than 40 minutes, achieving an 88% score. Now, I feel completely confident about the regulations and have a clear understanding of what I can and cannot do in accordance with the law.
