SUMMARY:FAA Part 107 Test Prep
DESCRIPTION:Digital Ag is partnering with TerraPlex Ag to host a Part 107 test prep in Ames. To commercially operate\, under 14 CFR Part 107\, a small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS) or commonly “drone” requires the remote pilot in command to hold a Remote Pilot Certificate. To obtain this certificate a person is required to take a knowledge-based test that covers a wide range of material from weather\, operation of the drone\, understanding sectional charts\, and more. Come to our 2-Day training event that will provide you the necessary information to feel ready to take your exam! \nFor registration and more information click here!

SUMMARY:2nd Annual Spray Drone Essentials
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nJoin us for our second annual Spray Drone Essentials Workshop. Designed for a wide range of attendees\, from curious farmers to licensed spray drone applicators\, and agtech startups. This full-day workshop will provide both foundational knowledge and advanced insights into the world of agricultural drone spraying\, including compliance and regulatory for personal versus custom applicators\, general operations\, and set up and safety. Workshop includes hands-on demonstrations from multiple spray drone providers. \nWho Should Attend\nFarmers\, crop consultants\, retailers\, spray drone applicators\, and others that are looking to leverage spray drone technology for their business. \nRegistration\nPrice: $300 including lunch\, refreshments\, and course materials. Space is limited to 60 attendees. https://go.iastate.edu/NYKVEN \nRegistration deadline is May 26\, 2026. \nQuestions: Doug Houser\, dhouser@iastate.edu \nWhat You’ll Learn\nDetermine your objectives: including making applications when the soil is too wet to support ground equipment\, targeted or site-specific applications\, supplementing existing capacity during peak application windows. \nRegulatory Considerations: FAA Part 107 Remote Pilot Certificate\, FAA Part 137 Certification\, IDALS Licensing\, IA DOT Aircraft registration\, pesticide label compliance. \nCurrent Updates: ISU Weeds & Pathology Researchers plus Digital Ag Spray Drone Testing results. \nInsurance and Risk Management: chemical and/or liability coverage\, hull or physical damage coverage. \nEquipment Selection: tank capacity\, battery life\, cost\, nozzle or droplet control\, dealer support service. \nTraining and Safe Operation: gaining flight recommendations\, calibration\, and coverage checks\, weather monitoring\, routine maintenance. \nGradual Adoption: cost benefit to adoption with scale. \nFuture Developments: payload capacity\, automation and navigation\, integration with data systems.
