What role does the IMU play in flight control?
It powers the motors
It transmits images to the controller
It detects orientation and movement changes
It manages remote signals
If a drone is flying through an area with unexpected obstacles, which combination of systems helps it detect and reroute around them?
Propellers and barometers
GPS module and return-to-home function
Obstacle detection sensors and navigation software
Radio receiver and ground control station
Which sequence best describes how a drone lifts off from the ground in response to a manual control input?
Flight controller → Camera → Propellers → Lift
Pilot input → Flight controller → ESCs → Propellers
ESCs → GPS → IMU → Propellers
Ground station → Return-to-home → Barometer → Lift
What is the main role of the flight controller in a drone's operation?
It captures images and video from the payload
It receives input from the camera and transmits it to the pilot
It processes commands and sensor data to control the drone
It stores mission data for offline playback
