The guy is selling a "UAV pilot certificate of completion" for $3500 as a self-proclaimed university. What a joke.

1. All the information that he offers is free on the inter-webs if you just search for it. Aside from his BDU-wearing instructors telling you how awesome you are at a local RC park, there is no value.

2. His university isn't accredited through any organization that matters.

3. The FAA hasn't issued any guidelines, regs, or "PTS" for drone jockeys. Aside form the AC that says, "under 55lbs, below 400', no commercial applications" there simply isn't anything official. So what standard is this guy training to?

Stay away, stay far away.
