When should you touch a drone?

When it is stopped moving COMPLETELY.

Isaac Newton is sitting under an apple tree. Suddenly, an apple falls from the tree and hits him on the head. What force caused this?

Gravity

200

What kind of area should you fly a drone in? (describe the weather and place)

It should be an open area with suitable wind speeds

300

What part of a drone controls the movement of it?

The propellers are responsible for a drone's rotation, tilt, and lift.

300

History question!

When did rocketry first start and where?

Sometime during the 12 to early 13th century in China.

How do you install a package? What is the installer command called and what does it stand for?

It is PIP and it stands for Preferred Installer Program. You can use pip install [package name]

300

What is Newton's 3rd law of motion?

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction

300

What kind of situations should you land a drone in? List at least 3.

Discretion advised.

examples:
1. Bad weather
2. Unsafe conditions (people or animals nearby, lamp pole with wires nearby)
3. Losing control, out of range of sight, etc.

How would a drone move to the right? Can you describe the rotation of the propellers?

It would tilt to the write/the propellers on the left would spin faster.

400

What part of a rocket maintains stability?

The fins

How do we achieve async programming in Python using an internal package? explain the difference between async and sync programming.

We can use the Thread package to help us get async programming.

When a car suddenly stops, passengers who are not wearing seat belts are thrown forward. This is an example of which of Newton's laws?

Newton's first law - An object at rest remains at rest, or if in motion, remains in motion at a constant velocity unless acted on by a net external force. 

500

What would happen if propellers 1 and 3 started to spin slower?

The drone would rotate

500

What protects the recovery system from hot gasses?

The recovery wadding is a flame-resistant tissue that protects the recovery system from hot gases.

500

Define a function that will show the camera of a drone. 

def show_camera():

camera_stream = drone.get_frame_read()

stream = camera_stream.frame

cv2.imshow("frame", stream)
