It's a near guaranteed ticket to success. No question about it.
I struggled to do it on my own, but once I started taking courses from my main man Greg, I got my pilot's license in just a few months with only 30 minutes a day of studying or less. Not only does pilot institute provide easy to understand courses, they go above and beyond with extra materials that aren't strictly required for getting your license. Things to make your life easier, make you a safer pilot, and make the whole process quicker and easier. And that's not even getting into their other courses. I also recently finished the drone videography course, and it turned final cut pro from a daunting complex machine into an easy to use tool to get my videos edited in minutes. Every single video has comments that are personally responded to if you need help. They do a public Q&A session several times a month. There's a huge community of other trainees and pilots to talk to, organized by pilot institute. It's the BEST way to get into drone flying for business or fun, hands down, no contest.
