A practice exam for the suas safety certification level 1, which is likely related to the operation and safety of unmanned aircraft systems (uas) or drones. A wide range of topics, including the components of an unmanned aircraft, data links, remote sensing, flight operations, and safety considerations. The questions and answers provided aim to test the knowledge and understanding of uas pilots and operators, ensuring they are prepared to operate these systems safely and effectively. The level of detail and technical terminology suggests this document would be most useful for university-level students or professionals working in the uas industry, rather than high school students or general learners.

The of the unmanned aircraft contains most of the equipment and acts as the basic structure. Fuselage The payload operator and Remote Pilot in Command (RPIC) work together to get the best imagery. True To keep an electromechanical device mounted on an aerial platform so that the sensor is pointed in the same general direction, regardless of the attitude (pitch, roll, yaw) of the platform, use a. stabilization gimbal The combination of accelerometers and gyroscopes enables the measurement of all 6 degrees of freedom. True A datalink's strength or range can be limited by. environmental factors, towers, distance, power, and antenna type The fuselage is the main body of the aircraft which holds the cargo compartment or payload. True What type of datalink allows information to flow back and forth simultaneously, like a telephone? duplex What makes up the vast majority of air vehicle power sources? (Select all that apply) Fuel cells Photovoltaic cells Engine-driven power generation Battery power The three types of aerial platforms best suited for remote sensing
. Response: Satellites, aircraft, and unmanned aircraft
As a UAS pilot, if you are trying to locate missing persons, you would use remote sensing payload. electro-optical or infrared
What device provides a remote pilot data from the air vehicle to indicate a dangerous or irregular flight condition? Warning lights and annunciator alarms When using a transmitter and a receiver combination, how many antennas are required to be mounted on the AV and how many antennas are required to be located with the ground station? two, two Scattering is defined as. beam of radio waves hitting a mass of smaller materials, which individually reflect and spread the radio waves in different directions The of a fixed-wing aircraft control surface can induce a pitching moment around the lateral axis. Elevator As altitude increases, air temperature and air density
. decreases The purpose of a datalink is to. Response: establish reliable communications between the UAV and ground control station (GCS) High-frequency carrier waves are able to carry more information, because there are more waves, and the waves are. closer to each other What happens when a remotely piloted aircraft system loses link between the ground control station and the air vehicle?The remotely piloted aircraft system executes preprogrammed logic. Remote sensing is the acquisition of information about an object when not in direct physical contact with the object. True Air density is directly related to the generation of airfoil thrust. False To determine the distance of a radio wavelength, measure
. two adjacent point on the wave
For UAS implementation into the National Air Space (NAS), what are two options that are primary safety datalink flight requirements for UAS implementation? Near real-time telemetry from the UAV Near real-time flight commands to the UAV Select two factors that influence your decision about the type of datalink hardware you purchase. mission requirements The term used when a person is involved in the overall action, but is removed from the control loop, allowing autonomous systems to function with infrequent or no human intervention, is. human on the loop While commands are sent from the remote pilot; what is sent from the aerial vehicle? Data Communication by unmanned aircraft systems datalinks moves back and forth from the air vehicle to the. ground control station A pilot control box (PCB) is a. ground station with a small tablet attached What device on a UAS relays status information down to the ground control station (GCS) including engine RPM, position information, altitude information, air speed, video images, and GPS data? Transmitter The status of an aircraft including attitude, airspeed, altitude, and heading is provided through which process. Telemetry What impact does yawing have on a UAS? Changes direction Remotely piloted aircraft systems sometimes require additional crew members other than the pilot. True An example of contingency planning is a
. Lost communications flight plan
True
The most popular and cost-effective propulsion systems used today include a and rechargeable lithium batteries. DC Electric Motor A sensor is a device that detects events and then produces a corresponding output of the event. True As a remote pilot planning an upcoming flight you use Meteorological Terminal Aviation Routine (METARS) for imagery-centric maps to conduct a terrain analysis. False When tracking tagged wildlife, lost or wandering adults, or children suffering from cognitive conditions, the type of remote sensing payload to use is A passive radio wave tracking device A UAS transceiver is a data radio that combines both the receiver and transmitter in one unit and utilizes the same antenna. True What energy is used in the remote-sensing process to detect, measure, and collect reflected, emitted, or absorbed energy by different objects? electromagnetic Radiation A human in the Ground Control Station (GCS), controlling the AV is known as human in the loop Distinguish the difference between EVLOS and BVLOS operations. EVLOS operations enable the crew to daisy-chain visual observers, whereas BVLOS operations require advanced technologies to sense and avoid. Use to change the flight path of a UAS to avoid obstacles and other aircraft. Active sensor data What is the term for waypoints that are linked together? route What is an important design feature of a Control Center display screen? Locate instruments to help the unmanned pilots see information in a logical and organized way
Fatigue Distraction Misjudgement The force that arises from moving an aircraft through the air is known as
. Drag Frequency is how many radio waves are generated per second. True How are load factors applied to an aircraft measured? G's - acceleration of gravity To generate point cloud derivative products (for 3-D models), use sensors. either passive or active A small unmanned aircraft may be directed through manual manipulation of flight controls or through commands using automation. True At a minimum, a primary flight display should consist of which of the following (select all that apply): Attitude Indicator Heading Indicator Airspeed Indicator Vertical Speed Indicator Altimeter In case there is a breakdown in communication between the UAS and GCS, what is necessary? a contingency plan What two factors contribute to an omni antenna being a common type of antenna for almost all UAS types? Cost, Reliability Successive data packages relaying the health and status of the aircraft, such as attitude, airspeed, altitude, and heading are transmitted electronically via radio frequency. When related to aircraft flight data, these data packages are called telemetry. True
When selecting datalink hardware an important factor that needs to be considered is
