Attention, Hobby Flyers: Come Monday Some Of You May Need An FAA Drone Pilot Certificate. Yes, Really.

While many commercial drone operators have been celebrating new rules taking effect Monday that will relax restrictions on them, hobby model airplane and drone flyers have largely been unaware of what’s about to hit them. Anyone using first-person-view systems must now obtain a Remote Pilot Certificate. Operating a drone without this certification will result in a fine up to $1,100.
