EASA Drone License A2

Question 1

A key operational advantage of a multirotor UAV compared to a fixed-wing UAV is:

Accepted Answer

The ability to hover in place, fly at very low speeds, and take off or land vertically without a runway

Answer

Significantly longer flight endurance and range

Answer

The ability to glide safely to the ground if all power is lost

Answer

Higher cruise speeds over long distances

Question 2

If you connect a 3S battery to a drone designed exclusively for a 6S battery, what will happen?

Accepted Answer

The drone will likely fail to arm or take off because the voltage provided (11.1V) is half of what the system expects (22.2V)

Answer

The drone will fly twice as fast

Answer

The motors will immediately burn out due to excessive voltage

Answer

The drone will fly normally, but the video feed will be in black and white

Question 3

The remote pilot must limit the time spent close to uninvolved persons in order to:

Accepted Answer

Reduce the time of exposure to the risk

Answer

Increase the temperature of the batteries

Answer

Make a direct overflight easier

Answer

Eliminate the lateral safety distances

Question 4

Which of the following describes a Cumulonimbus (Cb) cloud?

Accepted Answer

A massive, towering convective cloud associated with severe thunderstorms, heavy rain, lightning, hail, and extreme turbulence

Answer

A thin, wispy high-altitude cloud made of ice crystals

Answer

A low, flat, grey cloud layer that produces light drizzle

Answer

A small, fluffy 'fair weather' cloud

Question 5

If you are flying and notice the video transmission on your screen is lagging heavily and breaking up, what should you do?

Accepted Answer

Immediately look up to locate the drone via direct Visual Line of Sight (VLOS), bring it closer to improve signal strength, or land safely if the control link is also at risk

Answer

Switch to a higher video resolution

Answer

Turn off the remote controller

Answer

Fly the drone behind a building to reset the antennas

Question 6

Adding an aftermarket camera or heavy payload to your UAS primarily affects:

Accepted Answer

Mass, Centre of Gravity (CG), aerodynamic drag, and flight endurance

Answer

The GPS satellite reception frequency

Answer

Only the cosmetic appearance of the drone

Answer

The radio frequency of the remote controller

Question 7

What is the primary difference between Controlled Airspace and Uncontrolled Airspace?

Accepted Answer

In controlled airspace, ATC provides separation services and authorisation is usually required to enter; uncontrolled airspace does not have these strict ATC requirements

Answer

Uncontrolled airspace is exclusively for military use

Answer

Controlled airspace is only indoors

Answer

There is no difference for drone pilots; they can fly anywhere

Question 8

Increasing the payload weight on a drone will have what effect on its flight performance?

Accepted Answer

It will decrease the flight endurance (battery life) and reduce manoeuvreability due to higher inertia and power demands

Answer

It will significantly increase the maximum flight time

Answer

It will improve the drone's top speed

Answer

It will have zero impact as long as it remains under the MTOM

Question 9

The low-speed mode available on some class C2 UAS is useful because it:

Accepted Answer

reduces the kinetic energy and makes it easier to keep safe distances

Answer

replaces any risk assessment

Answer

permits flight over an assembly of people

Answer

increases the impact energy

Question 10

As aerodynamic speed increases, what happens to parasite drag?

Accepted Answer

It increases exponentially (proportional to the square of the speed)

Answer

It decreases steadily

Answer

It remains exactly the same

Answer

It converts into thrust
