capable of being visible for at least 3 statute miles
Visibility and Cloud Clearance - correct answer ✔✔- Station visibility (home base) should be no less than
3 statute miles
- 500 ft below the cloud and 2000ft horizontally from the cloud
- VLOS has to be maintained without any assistance (other than corrective lenses)
- Binoculars or vision aids may be used only momentarily to enhance situational awareness
, Maximum Speed and Altitude - correct answer ✔✔- UAS cannot exceed a ground speed of 87 knots or
100 mph
- Can't be flown 400 ft above ground level unless flown within a 400 ft radius of a structure and is not
flown 400 ft above the structure.
Right of Way - correct answer ✔✔- Remote PIC has responsibility to remain clear and yield right of way
to all other crafts
- See and avoid- First Person View Camera (FPV) cannot satisfy see-and-avoid requirement. It can
enhance situational awareness but you still have to have your VO (Visual Observer) with VLOS.

sparsely populated
If operating in populated/inhabited areas, make a plan to keep participants clear, indoors or under cover.
- If operating from a moving vehicle, choose a sparsely populated area and make a plant to keep sUAS
clear of anyone who may approach.
Operations from a moving vehicle - correct answer ✔✔You're allowed to operate a sUAS from a moving
land or water borne vehicle over a sparsely populated area.

person's property provided you comply with additional requirements: (must remain below 55 lbs),
operated within the boundaries of the state. No items can be dropped that creates undue hazard to
persons or property, you may not operate from land or water vehicle.
**You will see this as a trick question: .55lb to 55lbs does not include 55lbs.
sUAS are defined as having a takeoff weight of .55 - 55lbs. Not including 55 lbs. These sUAS must be
registered.
Certificate of Waiver - correct answer ✔✔Basically, if you want to challenge any of the rules listed as part
of the FAA for an operation, that's when you apply for a certificate of waiver.

A) Binoculars
B) First Person View Camera
