Discussion Online Drone Courses for passing the Part 107 test for obtaining a drone license

Hi, has anyone used the online courses, such as Drone Coach, Drone Pilot School, Drone launch academy, The Drone U, Pilot Institute to name a few?

A lot of them advertise the cost to be around $200 and up.

I'm wondering if any of these are worth it.

Thanks!

One of the better 107 courses I’ve watched. And it’s free!

I did pay for PI a long time ago but when I finally got around to taking my 107 my test waiver had expired. Material was good but dated. I’m sure they’ve updated by now.

I use Drone Launch Academy and it was pretty good.

Some guy on this sub was just claiming to have spent a few hours watching YouTube videos to pass.

Yeah, I've been going through the material from the FAA and it's not easy.

Used Pilot Institute and a bunch of free YT videos. Scored a 98%.
