The air resistance acting against the drone’s motion, typically affecting speed and energy efficiency, is called:
Drag
Lift
Thrust
Weight
The force that opposes gravity, allowing the drone to ascend or hover in place, is called:
Thrust
Drag
Lift
Weight
The additional lift generated as the drone moves forward, typically due to increased airflow over the rotors, is called:
Translational Lift
Dynamic Lift
Forward Thrust
Rotor Wash
The ability of the drone to remain stationary in mid-air, requiring balancing thrust and maintaining stability, is called:
Hovering
Gliding
Diving
Soaring
A loss of lift, often caused by improper angles of the propellers or insufficient speed, is called:
Stall
Drag
Thrust
Lift
A programmed flight path where the drone moves through a series of specified points is called:
Waypoint navigation
Direct control
Manual piloting
Random flight
The upward force generated by the propellers to counteract gravity and lift the drone off the ground is called:
Thrust
Drag
Lift
Weight
The drone’s ability to perform quick and precise movements, such as sharp turns or flips, is called:
Agility
Stability
Endurance
Lift
The tilt of the drone to the left or right along its longitudinal axis, allowing it to move sideways, is called:
Pitch
Yaw
Roll
Hover
The drone moves at a speed of:
5 m/s
10 m/s
15 m/s
20 m/s
The downward movement of the drone, achieved by decreasing thrust, is called:
Hovering
Ascending
Descending
Gliding
The upward movement of the drone, achieved by increasing thrust, is called:
Hovering
Ascending
Descending
Gliding
A smooth, curved motion where the drone rolls and yaws simultaneously to change direction is called:
Hovering
Banked Turn
Vertical Takeoff
Spiraling
The route the drone takes while moving from one point to another is called:
Path
Trajectory
Course
Flight plan
The consistent speed at which a drone moves efficiently during flight is called:
Hover speed
Cruise speed
Maximum speed
Minimum speed
Dynamic Positioning in the context of drones is:
a method to control a drone's position using GPS and sensors
a technique for increasing drone speed
a way to enhance drone battery life
a strategy for drone maintenance
The tilt of the drone forward or backward, controlled by adjusting the angle along the lateral axis, is called:
Pitch
Roll
Yaw
Throttle
The rate at which the drone changes its speed in any direction is called:
Velocity
Acceleration
Momentum
Displacement
The reduction of the drone’s speed, often achieved by decreasing thrust or tilting in the opposite direction of motion, is called:
Braking
Acceleration
Hovering
Lifting
The intentional angle adjustment of the drone’s body to achieve a particular motion or direction is called:
Yaw
Pitch
Roll
Tilt
