Requirements for aeromodelism

[Sunfly]

Hi all,
Long Time no see.
I recently heard that to be able to fly model airplane the ministery of transport ask us to pass an exam that is very difficult to pass. Can somebody tell me if its true. If yes please can you orient me to go pass this test online . Thank you

Go online to Transport Canada and look up Drone Pilot Certificate. Note that , for Transport Canada , any remotely piloted aircraft is a drone. As for the test, it is not nearly as difficult as you might think. All members of all RC clubs in Canada have taken and passed it. That said, I believe there are tutorials available through MAAC. There is certainly information about the requirements on the MAAC website.

I agree with Brian - not as difficult as you might be thinking.

Start with some reference material. One example, available for free in French and English, can be found here (https://www.aerialevolution.ca/rpas101/).

When you are ready for the exam try and get setup with two monitors on your PC (or an iPad as your second screen). Use one for the test, the other for reference documents and Google.
