Identification should include
- propulsion system (propeller, motor, electronic speed control [ESC])
- flight control system (global positioning system [GPS], real-time kinematic positioning [RTK], electronic gyroscope inertial sensing, avoidance sensors, radio for controller, controller or telemetry system)
- power system (batteries or fuel with control system)
- payload
- unmanned aerial vehicle (air frame).
Process/Skill Questions:
- What are the major subsystems of a UAS?
- Which considerations are most relevant to a remote pilot in command (PIC) when evaluating unmanned aircraft performance?
- How often is the PIC expected to inspect the condition and airworthiness of a UAS?
- Which preflight action is specifically required of the pilot for each flight?
