Flight Path Practice

Do you fancy yourself an advanced drone operator? Prove it by mastering the Flight Path Practice scenario, where each module is designed to stress even advanced users.

Introduction

The Flight Path Practice scenario consists of four modules:

  1. Out and Back

  2. Figure 8

  3. Rectangle

  4. Circuit

Drone Roster

Module Breakdowns

Out and Back

Fly the indicated path as precisely and smoothly as possible. You will be graded based on the precision of your flight path, smoothness of your velocity, and maintaining correct nose orientation. Hovering in place will progress objective steps even if you are in the incorrect location.

The Objectives in Out and Back that you need to complete are:

  1. Take off and hover in the indicated spot at 6.5ft

  2. Fly straight out following the arrows closely for 10 meters

  3. Hold and hover at 6.5ft in the center of the ring

  4. Fly straight back following the arrows closely for 10 meters

  5. Hold and hover at 6.5ft in the center of the ring

  6. Land the drone as closely as you can to the center of the starting point

Figure 8

Fly the indicated path as precisely and smoothly as possible. You will be graded based on the precision of your flight path, smoothness of your velocity. Hovering in place will progress objective steps even if you are in the incorrect location.

The objectives in Figure 8 you'll need to complete are:

  1. Take off and hover in the indicated spot at 6.5ft

  2. Fly a figure 8

    1. Fly a figure 8 along the path. Hover back in the center when you are done

  3. Land the drone at the starting point

Rectangle

Fly the indicated path as precisely and smoothly as possible. You will be graded based on the precision of your flight path, smoothness of your velocity. Hovering in place will progress objective steps even if you are in the incorrect location.

The objectives in Rectangle you'll need to complete are:

  1. Take off and hover in the indicated spot at 6.5ft

  2. Fly a rectangle

  3. Land the drone at the starting point

Circuit

Fly the indicated path as precisely and smoothly as possible. You will be graded based on the precision of your flight path, smoothness of your velocity. Hovering in place will progress objective steps even if you are in the incorrect location.

The objectives in Circuit you'll need to complete are:

  1. Take off and hover in the indicated spot at 6.5ft

  2. Fly a circuit

  3. Land the drone at the starting point
