Performance / Regulations

Front

In a fixed-wing aircraft, pitch is controlled by...

Back

the stabilizer.

Front

According to 14 CFR part 107, who is responsible for determining the performance of a small unmanned aircraft? Options: Manufacturer, Remote pilot-in-command, Owner or operator, Visual Observer

Back

Remote pilot-in-command.

Front

If an unmanned airplane weighs 33 pounds, what approximate weight would the airplane structure be required to support during a 30° banked turn while maintaining altitude?

Back

38 Pounds

Front

The term "angle of attack" is defined as the angle between the

Back

chord line of the wing and the relative wind.

Front

Which of the following increases load factor the most on fixed wing aircraft? Level turn, Unpowered stall, Steady climb.

Back

Level turn.

Front

During an approach to a stall, an increased load factor will cause the aircraft to

Back

stall at a higher airspeed.

Front

A stall occurs when the smooth airflow over the unmanned airplane's wing is disrupted and the lift degenerates rapidly. This is caused when the wing exceeds its critical angle of attack.

Back

exceeds its critical angle of attack.

Front

To ensure that the unmanned aircraft center of gravity (CG) limits are not exceeded, follow the aircraft loading instructions specified in the

Back

Pilot's Operating Handbook or UAS Flight Manual.

Front

When operating an unmanned airplane, the remote pilot should consider that the load factor on the wings may be increased anytime the airplane is subjected to maneuvers other than straight and level flight.

Back

the airplane is subjected to maneuvers other than straight and level flight.

Front

When loading cameras or other equipment on an sUAS, mount the items in a manner that

Back

does not adversely affect the center of gravity.
