I think the caveat was you had to score over an 85% on their practice
tests. One of them would pay you $150 if you failed, another one would
pay your re-test fee.

What does "guarantee" mean?
Maybe if you fail the test, you can take the course again for free?

Doing some more googling around, it looks like there are some online course prep
'schools' They're all <$300 and guarantee passing the
test. That doesn't seem too bad. Now, how to choose which one.

Found the process:
For people who already hold a pilot certificate issued under 14 CFR
part 61, You simply need to complete the FAA’s online course, which
will take you about two hours to complete. Note that you must have
completed a flight review within the previous 24 months.
Crap, have not had a medical in years...

That is absolutely not true. You need a UAS license to be able to fly
even though the testing is very similar to a private pilot license
but it does have other things attached to it.

I am a private pilot with an instrument rating. I started doing

commercial for the incidental business flying I was doing so I

been told that I can legally fly drones due to my regular license.
Not sure if that is even true.

I was looking through the FAA Requirements to get a drone license.
If I understand correctly, if you use the drone in any way as a
commercial flight, I.E. taking pictures of a tower, then you need
the commercial license.
The FAA Website talks about going to a testing facility to Pass the
'initial aeronautical knowledge test'. The FAA links out to
psiexams.com At psiexams.com they don't have a 'initial
aeronautical knowledge test' listed, but they do have a 'Unmanned
Aircraft General - Small (UAG)'. Is this the test that you actually
need to pass? Many people here are pilots, what are good resources
to study/practice for the tests? Has anyone recently gotten their
drone license. How big of a deal is it?
