107 Pilot Jobs FAQ

How much does it cost for pilots to join?

Pilot membership is a flat *$7.99 per month, and that covers everything—nationwide visibility, profile access, and job matching.
That price is locked in and will never increase.

We built it this way on purpose. Finding consistent drone work is hard enough. You shouldn’t have to pay per job, per lead, or give up a large percentage of your earnings just to get access to opportunities.
This platform is designed to help you keep what you earn while giving you real access to meaningful work.


Do you take a percentage of pilot earnings?

No.
We don’t take a cut of your jobs, your contracts, or your income.
The membership fee maintains your presence in the UAS industry through 107 Pilot Jobs community.

What you negotiate is what you keep. Simple as that.


Why not just make it free?

Is “Free” really free? Some platforms say they give you a free membership and then you find out that they take a cut of each job you do. Yes, the membership is free, but there’s always conditions.

Free platforms sound good—but they usually come with tradeoffs: low-quality leads, spam, or no real commitment from users. Let’s face it, would you fly for free? You have to agree $7.99 per month is a very small price to pay for access to jobs specifically sourced for the 107 pilot.

The affordable monthly membership does three things:

  • Keeps the platform focused on serious professionals
  • Funds continued growth, features, and real job opportunities
  • Ensures the community of future success. As you grow, we grow and you grow with us!

At $7.99/month, it’s a fraction of one small gig—and it positions you for long-term access to work.


How do pilots get matched with jobs?

Your profile acts like a database entry—your experience, equipment, certifications, and location are all used to match you with contracts submitted by Drone Service Providers (DSPs).

When a DSP creates a job, the system identifies pilots who meet the criteria.
No endless scrolling. No guessing. Just relevant opportunities.

How do you get chosen from a smaller, possibly better paid pool? Education, and having the right equipment and certificates. DSPs want to know the pilots they choose are committed.


What kind of work can I expect?

It depends on your experience and equipment, but opportunities may include:

  • Infrastructure inspections
  • Real estate and construction imaging
  • Agricultural mapping
  • Disaster response and assessment
  • Commercial and industrial drone operations

The more complete your profile, the better your chances of being matched.


Do I need to be highly experienced to join?

No—but you do need to be honest and complete in your profile.

Newer pilots can still find opportunities, especially in entry-level or support roles.
Experienced pilots will naturally match with higher-level contracts.

This platform is built to support growth over time, not just reward experience.


What makes this different from other drone job platforms?

Most platforms fall into one (or more) of three categories:

  • Pay-per-lead systems
  • Platforms that take a significant cut of your earnings
  • Upselling for better exposure

We don’t do any of that.

Instead, we focus on:

  • Direct connections between pilots and DSPs
  • Fair, transparent access to opportunities
  • A system that rewards skill, education, equipment and dedication, not who pays the most

How do DSPs contact me?

When you match a contract, DSPs can reach out directly using the contact information in your profile or through the platform.

Make sure your profile is complete, honest and professional—this is your first impression.


Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. No contracts, no long-term commitments.

You can cancel whenever you want, but staying active keeps you visible and eligible for new opportunities.

You may land a three-month project and decide to cancel your membership. That’s OK, but, if during those three months another DSP is looking for pilots for a later date, perhaps after you’re done with your current job, other pilots will snag the positions before you and you’ll have to get listed all over again and wait for the next opportunity.
You’d actually have to ask yourself: Should I cancel my account? If you’re making upwards of $1,000.00 a week, would you risk losing another opportunity for $2.00 that week?

Rest assured though, if you do cancel, you can come back anytime, but you’ll have to start your profile all over again.
What does that mean to you? Pilots are dated in the community. In other words, if you are a member in the community for three years and you cancel your membership then come back, you lose that three-year marker. If you qualify for a pilot job after returning and there are others who have been on the platform for only a year, chances are, they will be chosen over you because the DSP will note their longevity as a member. Yes, DSPs can see, on your profile, how long you’ve been a member. There are many more reasons to stay than there are to cancel, question is: should you?


Is this available nationwide?

Yes.
Your single membership gives you national coverage, so you’re not limited to one region. But make sure you specify that in your profile otherwise, if you live in New England, a contractor has a job in Kansas and you selected “local” or “state”, you will not be matched and selected for that job. Do this only if you are willing to travel.

*Your state may include taxes where applicable.
