On June 22, 2021, the AMA was approved to administer The Recreational UAS Safety Test (TRUST) and began offering TRUST to the entire community of model aviation enthusiasts. TRUST is free to take for everyone, so be cautious of any site that has a fee associated with taking TRUST.
Additionally, some sites may offer to send you a laminated copy of your TRUST completion certificate for a fee once completing the test. While not against rules, there is no requirement to purchase these cards.
Furthermore, while there is no set deadline to take TRUST, the FAA recommends taking the test as soon as practical. For any additional questions regarding TRUST, visit AMA’s TRUST FAQ.
