This podcast is made by Ran Chen, who holds an EA license, Insurance and Securities licenses (Series 6, 63, 65), and the CFP® designation. He is passionate about opening access to high-quality exam preparation resources and helping learners prepare more effectively for professional certification exams. In this episode you will learn: - A flyaway is an unresponsive drone; the first action is to switch to ATTI mode to attempt to regain manual control. - A lost link is a communication failure where the drone should follow its pre-set Return-to-Home (RTH) procedure. - Never use water on a LiPo battery fire; the correct response is a Class D extinguisher or smothering it with sand. - Pre-flight planning is critical, including setting a safe RTH altitude to clear all potential obstacles. - Exam questions often create scenarios to test if you can distinguish between a flyaway and a lost link and choose the appropriate response.
