The A1/A3 exam on flydrone.no is free. The A2 exam has a separate official fee. Kurskompis provides optional exam preparation for NOK 299, with 183 days of access.
These are separate costs
Budget for each item separately. This avoids comparing a practice course with an offer that also includes other services.
| Item | Price or what to check |
|---|---|
| Official A1/A3 exam | Free on flydrone.no. |
| Official A2 exam | A separate fee applies. Check the current rate with Luftfartstilsynet before booking. |
| Operator registration | Separate from the exam. Check registration requirements and the fee on flydrone.no. |
| Kurskompis | A one-off payment of NOK 299 for 183 days of course access. |
| Insurance and any practical assistance | Depends on your needs and the provider. Not included with Kurskompis. |
What do you get for NOK 299 with Kurskompis?
Access covers all the learning material, including A1/A3, A2 and STS. You get lessons, practice questions, revision, mock exams and progress saved to your customer account. It is a one-off payment with no automatic renewal.
The course does not issue official pilot certificates. Official examinations, practical flying and any authority fees are handled separately. You retain a 14-day right of withdrawal under our purchase terms.
Choose according to your needs
If you want to try the teaching approach first, start with the 20 free questions. Pay particular attention to whether the explanations help you understand your mistakes. This is more useful than comparing question counts alone.
If you need structure and revision, an additional practice course may help. If you already have a good study method, the official training may be sufficient. Do not buy A2 preparation simply because you assume every drone requires A2: first check which training route your drone and flight require.
A simple budget before you book
Write down which certificate you need, whether you must register as an operator, and whether you need insurance or help with practical training. Then list current authority fees and optional services separately.
If you are considering a package from a training provider, check the access period, renewal terms, practical training and who runs the exam. Ask for clarification if something is described only as an “included drone certificate”.
