You can build skills, business knowledge, and a service plan well before launching full-time operations. FAA Part 107 eligibility starts at age 16, which allows legal commercial work once certified. Starting early can create a major long-term advantage. If you are exploring whether this is the right opportunity, start with the free workshop at https://dronepreneurworkshop.com.
