Advanced Operations > Section 1: Air law In addition to registration, what other documents are required from the user of a RPAS when performing advanced operations?
A manufacturer's maintenance schedule approved by Transport Canada. An RPAS Safety Assurance provided by the manufacturer. A written authorization from NAV CANADA for advanced operations. An airworthiness certificate. Bertrand :
Drones used to conduct advanced operations must be declared as able to perform certain advanced operations safely. An RPAS Safety Assurance is needed to conduct advanced operations.
The RPAS Safety Assurance tells users the safety limits of the drone they are using. Pilots must operate their drone within the limits outlined in the RPAS Safety Assurance that its manufacturer declared to Transport Canada.
If you build or modify Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS), or 'drones', you can make a declaration to Transport Canada identifying the capabilities of the system (you must be able to prove that the drone complies with Canadian Aviation Regulations Standard 922 and Canadian Aviation Regulations 901.76 if it is to be used for advanced operations).

Basic Operations > Section 1: Air law 101-Interpretation (definitions).

The abbreviation “sRPA” stands for:
A small remotely piloted aircraft between 250 g to 25 kg operated with in visual line of sight (VLOS). A small remotely piloted aircraft of less than 25 kg. A small remotely piloted aircraft between 250 g to 25 kg A small remotely piloted aircraft of less than 250 g. Bertrand :

Advanced Operations > Section 2: Airframes, power plants Barometric altitude measurement is obtained from:
Accelerometers. A dynamic pressure probe. A dynamic pressure capsule. A pressure sensor. Bertrand :
This is an aneroid capsule that measures (barometric) altitude by measuring static pressure (the pressure surrounding the aircraft at its current altitude).

Advanced Operations > Section 2: Airframes, power plants The aneroid capsule allowing the measurement of barometric altitude is airtight and senses:
Static pressure. Differential pressure. Dynamic pressure. Total pressure. Bertrand :
Static pressure = the pressure surrounding the aircraft at its current altitude.

Advanced Operations > Section 2: Airframes, power plants The piezoelectric barometer installed in a drone indicates:
Flight altitude. Atmospheric pressure. Flight height. Take-off altitude. Bertrand :
The atmospheric pressure at your current altitude “presses” against the piezoelectric sensor, which generates a distinct and reproducible voltage proportional to that pressure. Consequently, by knowing the local pressure, as your drone ascends, the atmospheric pressure will decrease (or increase if you are at the top of a bridge or tower and your drone descends lower), and the barometer can provide you with altitude information relative to your starting point.

Short Modules and Progression
Each question follows on from each other without any loading time, so that each module can be quickly completed in a continuous progression. This segmentation boosts motivation and avoids the discouragement effect associated with long sessions. Ideal for staying engaged day after day.

Self-training and support
Most questions are accompanied by an immediate explanation after validation. This instant feedback allows you to understand your mistakes without delay, which improves the effectiveness of self-training. You learn actively, independently.
