The drone is increasingly a popular item in China and with it, more and more people are considering becoming certified.
无人机在国内正日益流行，因此越来越多的国人考虑取得"驾照"。
However, becoming a certified drone pilot is not easy. It can cost a maximum of 27,000 yuan and requires two demanding tests involving knowledge of mathematics, physics and geography.
不过，想成为无人机持证驾驶员并不容易。考证费用最高可达2.7万元，且需参加两项涉及数学、物理和地理知识的严格测试。
By the end of June, 5,047 people in China held a drone certificate, according to statistics from the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA).
航空器拥有者及驾驶员协会(AOPA)的数据显示，截至今年6月底，全国有5047人持有无人机驾驶证。
The training fees for a pilot range from 12,000 yuan to 24,000 yuan, and for a pilot-in-command from 24,000 yuan to 27,000 yuan, according to EWATT Technology, which provides drone training.
提供无人机培训的易瓦特科技股份有限公司称，无人机驾驶员培训费为1.2-2.4万元，机长培训费为2.4-2.7万元。
Not everyone needs a certificate to fly a drone; if a drone weighs less than 7 kg, if it is flown indoors or in sparsely populated areas, then a certificate is not required, the AOPA says.
AOPA表示，并非所有人都需考证才能操控无人机。操控7公斤以下无人机，在室内或非人口稠密区操控无人机，则不必考证。
Drones are still risky, and can be dangerous if flown with inexperience, in a bad weather, or illegally.
无人机仍旧是具有风险的，如果飞行经验不足，或是天气恶劣，又或是非法飞行就会非常危险。
