    It is clear to me as an entrepreneur how incredibly useful this test is as an introductory benchmark for basic flying inspection skill. If I am to interview new pilots and trust them on first jobs it will be very useful to see them put their skills on display in an easy level test. It will also be the same for training.

    I need to practice this. Or I need to take the mavic controller apart and invert the gimbal wires

    I can see the fun in this. Out in the reality searching for the wanted angles for photos the target is not the problem. The problems are the obstacles beside, behind, under and partly in front of the down angled camera. Lots of camera tilting up and down, rotating, to check there's no obstacle coming too close.
    It will be fun to see what You will come up with.

    I have seen on a few of the NIST flight course reference materials, a timer poistioned on the course. Can you send a link to recommended timer used in this type of testing?

    I agree with ither comments. What is the relevance of these exercises to common uses such as inspections, cinematic photography, etc.? In other words, these exercises do not have clear learning objectives. Good effort, but as a professional training developer/educator, you should frame them as: at the end of the exercise, the participant should be able to demonstrate ... skills.

    The first thing that jumped out at me was the obvious lack of VLOS. The Remote Pilot was only looking at the controller and not at the UAS. This whole "test" breaks for me at that point. Please tell me there was a VO keeping the surrounding environment safe.

    • @GeoffOdom-nn4ez
      @GeoffOdom-nn4ez 8 месяцев назад

      Yes. There is a judge when taking the actual test for NIST. They act as your VO if you don't have one. There is an indoor course as well that is similar.

    Okay but what does this do? Besides getting better at the test, these skills are non-transferable unless you are brand new to how drones operate and how to operate them smoothly. Also Orbits are not Rolls. You're moving during a Yaw Spin. It might make you control better, or move smoother, but it has no actual bearing on making you a "Better" Pilot if you have the literal utmost basics down.
    It won't make you safer, it won't make you more efficient.
    It makes you good at taking pictures of buckets.

      It's like any other test. It sets a standard for new pilots, etc. What good is a part 107 at making a drone pilot a good drone pilot? I know a lot of FPV hobbyist that can crush and destroy a part 107 holder, but they don't have a part 107.
