Canada Drone Pilot Basic Exam Preparation 2026

This course is for new drone pilots in Canada who are preparing for Transport Canada's Small Basic Exam. Five lessons cover the exam and certificate, the rules for basic operations, airspace and NOTAMs, weather, and human factors. Each lesson has an untimed topic quiz with explanations, and a timed 35-question final assessment unlocks a certificate of completion when you score 80% or more. The course does not issue a drone pilot certificate; you take the real exam online through Transport Canada's Drone Management Portal.

Themenquiz 1: The Small Basic Exam, your certificate and registration

Was Sie vor der Prüfung wissen sollten

The Small Basic Exam has 35 multiple-choice questions, a 90-minute time limit and a pass mark of 65%. You must be 14 or older.
If you fail the Small Basic Exam, you must wait 24 hours before you try again. There is no limit on retakes, and each attempt has the same fee.
After you pass, the Pilot Certificate – Basic Operations is issued right away, and you download and print it from the Drone Management Portal.
Basic operations use a drone of 25 kg or less, kept in sight, more than 30 m horizontally from people, in uncontrolled airspace, and more than 5.6 km from certified airports and 1.9 km from heliports.
Drones of 250 g or more must not fly higher than 400 ft (122 m) above ground level, except close to a building or under a special flight operations certificate.
Every drone of 250 g or more must be registered in the Drone Management Portal and clearly marked with its registration number.
The pilot certificate does not expire, but you must have completed a recency activity within the previous 24 months before you fly.

Häufig gestellte Fragen

Is this the official Transport Canada Small Basic Exam?

No. This is an independent course with original questions. You take the real Small Basic Exam online through Transport Canada's Drone Management Portal.

Does this course give me a drone pilot certificate?

No. Only Transport Canada issues the Pilot Certificate – Basic Operations, after you pass the Small Basic Exam. This course helps you study for that exam.

What does the certificate of completion show?

It shows that you finished this course and scored at least 80% on its final assessment. It is not a Transport Canada pilot certificate, it does not count as a recency activity, and it does not let you fly.

Why is the course pass mark 80% when the real exam needs 65%?

A higher target gives you a safety margin. The final assessment has 35 questions in 90 minutes, the same length and time as the real exam, and draws a new mix of questions each attempt.

Do I need a certificate for a drone under 250 g?

No. Microdrones need no pilot certificate or registration, but you must not fly in a reckless or negligent way, and you need an SFOC to fly at an advertised event. Transport Canada also recommends keeping it in sight and below 400 ft.

What should I study besides this course?

Transport Canada bases the exam on TP 15263 and strongly recommends a drone flight school. Also read Part IX of the Canadian Aviation Regulations and the RPA chapter of the TC AIM.

Ist die Bescheinigung akkreditiert oder offiziell anerkannt?

Nein. Es ist eine private Teilnahmebescheinigung, nur für Ihr Wissen. Sie ist von keiner Behörde, Zulassungsstelle, Aufsichtsbehörde oder Bildungseinrichtung anerkannt, akkreditiert oder genehmigt und ersetzt keine gesetzlich vorgeschriebene Lizenz, Zertifizierung oder Ausbildung.
