Flight performance and planning - EASA Drone License A2

Question 1

How should a remote pilot handle the GDPR requirements regarding footage captured in a public park?

Accepted Answer

The pilot should avoid deliberately filming identifiable individuals without consent, respect their reasonable expectation of privacy, and securely store or anonymize the data

Answer

Drones are exempt from GDPR, so the pilot can film anyone without restrictions

Answer

The pilot must obtain written consent from the local police before turning on the camera

Answer

The pilot is required to blur all trees and buildings in the background

Question 2

In Human Factors, what does the 'IMSAFE' checklist stand for?

Accepted Answer

Illness, Medication, Stress, Alcohol, Fatigue, Emotion - a self-assessment to ensure the pilot is fit to fly

Answer

Internal Motors, Sensors, Altitude, Frequencies, ESCs

Answer

Immediate Safety Measures And Flight Emergencies

Answer

It is a standard checklist for formatting the SD card

Question 3

What is the maximum safe voltage of a fully charged standard LiPo cell?

Accepted Answer

4.2V

Answer

3.7V

Answer

5.5V

Answer

12.0V

Question 4

If the drone enters ATTI mode (GPS loss) while flying near obstacles, what is the correct manoeuvre to avoid collisions?

Accepted Answer

Manually control the horizontal position by compensating for wind drift with the sticks while maintaining a safe altitude

Answer

Turn off the motors immediately to avoid major damage

Answer

Activate the Return to Home (RTH) button

Answer

Increase maximum speed to reacquire the signal

Question 5

Where must the operator registration number be displayed?

Accepted Answer

Physically affixed to the drone and uploaded into the Remote ID system if available

Answer

Only on the pilot's high-visibility vest

Answer

On the bottom of the remote controller

Answer

It is not required for drones operating in the Open category

Question 6

What does activating the low-speed mode on a C2 class UAS entail?

Accepted Answer

It limits the maximum speed to 3 m/s, allowing the A2 minimum distance to be reduced to 5 metres when the situation is assessed as safe

Answer

It turns off obstacle avoidance sensors to save battery

Answer

It physically limits the maximum height to 50 metres

Answer

It increases the remote controller's transmission latency

Question 7

If the drone's GPS/GNSS module fails mid-flight but the IMU remains active, what will happen?

Accepted Answer

The drone will maintain its attitude (level flight) and altitude, but will drift horizontally with the wind (entering ATTI mode)

Answer

The motors will immediately shut off

Answer

The drone will crash because it cannot maintain level flight without GPS

Answer

The drone will automatically engage an emergency parachute

Question 8

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 9

How should a pilot fix the 'Toilet Bowl Effect' during a flight?

Accepted Answer

Switch the drone to manual/ATTI mode to stop the erratic GPS-driven circling, land safely, and recalibrate the compass away from magnetic interference

Answer

Switch to automatic RTH mode immediately

Answer

Turn the controller off and on again

Answer

Fly higher to get a better GPS signal

Question 10

What is 'Disc Loading' on a multirotor drone?

Accepted Answer

The total weight of the drone divided by the total area swept by its rotors

Answer

The speed at which the SD card writes video files

Answer

The maximum payload capacity of the drone

Answer

The amount of data downloaded from GPS satellites
