Updated rules and regulations for drone flights: Spoiler, you need a license. Don’t panic, we’ve got your resources here!
The Federal Aviation Administration now requires all recreational drone operators to pass and carry The Recreational UAS Safety Test (TRUST) certification in the US.
The following entities are FAA approved test administrators of TRUST:
- The Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA)
- The Boy Scouts of America
- Chippewa Valley Technical College
- Community College of Allegheny County – West Hills Center
- Drone U
- Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University (ERAU)
- HSU Educational Foundation
- Lake Area Technical College
- Pilot Institute
- Drone Launch Academy LLC
- Proctorio Incorporated
- Tactical Aviation
- CrossFlight Sky Solutions
- UAV Coach
- University of Arizona Global Campus
- Volatus Aerospace Corp
The certification is FREE, provides education, safety and regulation information to drone pilots. As of June 2021, this is a one time test, however, if you lose your certificate, you will need to retest to obtain a new certificate.
Please visit the FAA for additional information and safety resources.
Husband and wife team with engineering and medical professions who wanted a chance to make a dream, a reality in Franklin, Massachusetts. During the last year we had time to realize that we should have some fun amid the chaos of our world. That is where the dream of Create Some Fun, LLC began. Our dream became a reality May 17, 2021. Our goal is to not take life so seriously and enjoy our hobbies, and if we can help others find their Zen in doing the same, our dream has come to fruition!
What is 3D printing?
Also referred to as additive manufacturing, 3D printing is a process in which objects are produced by adding material in layers in cross-sections of a 3D model. Plastics and metal alloys are most commonly used, however, the possibilities are endless as there are examples of concrete and living tissue prints!
How can I use 3D printing?
Prototyping: Used for visual aids, mockups, television and film models.
Limited production parts: More cost effective at producing low volume or custom parts.
Lightweight parts: Fuel efficiency and reduction of emissions are the main focus of lightweight parts production via 3D printing in the aerospace and automotive industries.
Medical: Implants that mimic real bone structure, skin, cells and organic tissue, prosthetics.
