A person without a Remote Pilot certificate wants to manipulate the flight controls. Under Part 107 this is allowed only if

• A.the remote pilot in command directly supervises and can immediately take control.
• B.the flight takes place in uncontrolled airspace, at least 5 miles from any airport.
• C.the person has completed the recreational TRUST test and carries the completion certificate.

Why

An uncertificated person may manipulate the controls only under the direct supervision of the remote pilot in command, who must be able to take immediate control. Airspace class and a recreational test do not replace that supervision.
