The Spexi Network Pilot Eligibility & Compatible Drones

At Spexi, we’re passionate about empowering drone pilots from all backgrounds to tap into the potential of aerial imaging through our FLY TO EARN network. Whether you’re an experienced pilot or just getting started, our standardized system makes it easy for you to contribute. All you need is a compatible drone and the necessary certifications for your region. Let’s dive into what you need to know to get started and the types of drones we currently support.

Pilot Eligibility 

If you’re legally permitted to fly and own a compatible drone, you’re set to contribute and earn. For the best experience, we recommend completing at least 10 automated flights and our Pilot Onboarding training.
