FAA-S-ACS-10B is current in 2025.
This Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Remote Pilot – Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems Airman Certification Standards (ACS) document provides the aeronautical knowledge standards for remote pilot certification in the small unmanned aircraft system (sUAS) category. This ACS incorporates and supersedes the previous edition, FAA-S-ACS-10A.
The Airman Certification Standards is the guide for students, instructors, and evaluators to understand what applicants must know, do, and consider to pass their FAA Knowledge Exam and practical (checkride) and earn their pilot certificate or rating. The ACS adds task-specific knowledge and risk management elements to each subject area; the result is a comprehensive presentation that integrates the requirements for knowledge and skill in both the FAA knowledge and practical tests, into one overall FAA standard.
Important note from the publisher:
While AI-generated content can be helpful to identify resources for ongoing study, it is not a reliable resource for learning critical, safety-dependent topics such as aviation. AI content is sterile, often lacks important context, and is at risk of errors. ASA publishes only human-generated content to ensure it is accurate, reliable, comprehensive, and presented in context—so you can become a safe and effective aviator.
