How can drones help in an industry?
If the drone is helping in an industry, award points
Identify three specific things to check when surveying city streets using a drone.
Unmaintained streets.
What is pitch?
Tilting forward and backward
In which of the following conditions should you definitely stop flying

b) Normal Weather
c) Sunny Weather
d) Hot Weather
a) Stormy Weather
How many miles is 1.5 statute miles?
1.5 miles
How can drones help architects and engineers with construction? Give one example.
3D modeling of terrain and buildings, reduces labor hours and allows inspections in hard to reach areas, improving safety
Give 3 examples of how drones can be used to help the public.
What would happen if you pushed the right stick right and the left stick left at the same time? What shape would the drone make?
The drone would strafe right while turning left, going right in a circle.
Do drones fly better or worse in denser air?
Better
AGL = above ground level, MSL = mean sea level
A tower is 600 ft MSL. A drone can fly a total of 400 ft above the tower. How high can the drone fly MSL?
1000 ft MSL
Explain one advantage of using Drones for water sample collection over going to a location using a boat or walking to a shore.
Easier to get samples (boats are a hassle and you don't need to walk places), might be safer, could get water from the centers of lakes without disturbing the water
Provide one specific example of an ethical issue when drones are used in Healthcare emergencies.
Equity of care (poorer places may lag behind wealthier ones), medical privacy, drone may fail while carrying around lifesaving organs.
Which propellers spin faster during Yaw?
Opposite Diagonal propellers.
How does 2 and 3 bladed propellers affect flight performance?
3 bladed propellers make less noise and have more thrust and acceleration, used for lighter and more maneuverable drones.
2 bladed propellers are better for straight-line speed and have less drag, used for heavier drones.
The ground is at 100 MSL. A tower is at 500 AGL. A drone is allowed to fly 400 ft above the tower. What is the maximum height the drone can fly in AGL?
900 ft AGL
Provide one challenge drone deliveries face in terms of public safety AND how would you fix or mitigate them?
Noise pollution, accidents, can be mitigated using quieter propellers, strong regulations, and collision avoidance
Drones can deliver medicines or supplies in a crisis, but what are some possible ethical problems if certain groups of people get help before others?
Some communities might be left out or treated unfairly.
People could feel angry or mistrustful if resources aren’t shared equally.
It might increase inequality between rich and poor areas.
How do you change channels using the Hisingiy VR goggles?
There is a small joystick/button on the top of the headset
How do humidity and temperature affect air density? (Ex: higher/lower humidity = ? )
Higher humidity = less dense air
Lower humidity = denser air
Higher temperature = less dense air
Lower temperature = denser air
The tower's tip is at 243 ft AGL. The drone is flying 156 ft above the tower's tip. The drone is flying at 1571 ft MSL. If the tower has a 23 ft tall base, how far above sea level is the ground?
1172 ft
How might drones improve efficiency in farming? Give 3 examples.
spraying crops, high-res images + thermal sensors can tell which areas of the fields need water and/or fertilizer and/or pesticide - conserves water by only targeting dry areas. Drones can forecast yields by analyzing growth patterns.
During emergencies, drones sometimes take pictures or videos to guide rescuers. What are some possible ethical issues that could happen if this technology is used without limits?
People might lose privacy if private homes or patients are filmed.
Videos could be misused or shared without permission.
Survivors could feel embarrassed or unsafe.
The technology might be used for purposes other than saving lives, like spying.
What happens if you pull the roll stick all the way left in a full-manual FPV drone?
The drone flips over
What is the visibility range in this METAR?
METAR KSFO 270256Z 30013KT 10SM CLR 17/12 A2978 RMK AO2 SLP084 T01670122 53000
10 statute miles (10SM)
Which of the following counters a PEKKA in Clash Royale?
a)Golem
b)Hog Rider
c)Battle Ram
d)Knight
Trick question!! The answer is none of them!!!
