To prevent collisions between aircraft, organize and expedite the flow of air traffic, and provide information and support for pilots

Answer

To sell drones to commercial operators

Answer

To design the aerodynamic shape of new aircraft

Answer

To repair drones that crash near airports

Question 4

What is the primary function of a drone's telemetry system?

Accepted Answer

To transmit real-time flight data (like battery voltage, altitude, GPS coordinates, and warnings) from the drone down to the remote pilot's screen

Answer

To encode the video feed for YouTube

Answer

To physically cool down the motors

Answer

To record the audio of the pilot's voice

Question 5

What is the maximum take-off mass (MTOM) allowed for a UAS operating in the Open A2 subcategory with a C2 class identification label?

Accepted Answer

Up to 4 kg

Answer

Less than 250 g

Answer

Up to 900 g

Answer

Up to 25 kg

Question 6

In the context of risk management, what is a 'Contingency Procedure'?

Accepted Answer

A predefined action taken to handle an abnormal situation (like a low battery warning) and prevent it from escalating into a critical emergency

Answer

A plan for buying a new drone

Answer

The procedure for turning on the remote controller

Answer

A method to bypass airspace restrictions

Question 7

Under what circumstance can you fly in the Specific category?

Accepted Answer

When the operation exceeds Open category limits (e.g., BVLOS or heavier drones) and an authorisation, STS, or LUC is approved

Answer

Answer

Is illegal in Europe

Answer

Only covers damage to the drone itself

Answer

Is optional for all drones under 4 kg

Question 9

If you are operating a C2 drone in Open A2, and an uninvolved person unexpectedly walks within your 30 m safety buffer, you should:

Accepted Answer

Immediately take action to increase the distance, manoeuvre away safely, or land if necessary

Answer

Shout at them from a distance while keeping the drone hovering in place

Answer

Quickly activate 'low-speed mode' and fly directly over their head

Answer

Ignore them as long as the drone is flying higher than 50 metres

Question 10

Evaluating 'ground risk' before a flight primarily involves analyzing:

Accepted Answer

The population density, types of buildings, and the presence of uninvolved people directly below the flight path

Answer

The likelihood of a manned aircraft entering the airspace

Answer

The potential for sudden changes in barometric pressure

Answer

The quality of the GPS signal emitted by ground stations
