Do I Need an Advanced Drone License?

To operate a drone that weighs 250 grams or more in populated areas, an advanced drone license is required. This is due to the restriction that basic license holders cannot fly within 100 feet of people, while those with an advanced license may do so, provided they use an appropriate drone. Make sure you choose the right drone for advanced operations. Another reason you might need an advanced drone license is if you plan to fly inside controlled airspace. Most towns and cities are within controlled airspace.

Use Nav Drone's interactive map to see if you're in controlled airspace.

How Do I Get an Advanced Drone License?

In order to obtain an advanced drone license you must pass the advanced drone exam on Transport Canada's website and then complete an in-person flight review. Transport Canada strongly recommends that you attend a drone flight school before attempting their exam. That’s why we created this online course to help you ace Transport Canada’s drone exams.
