so you need to be able to figure it out if the orientation is this way how
you're gonna fly it in an 8 or figure-of-eight similar exercises just
different orientation makes it challenges that's why you practice that
ones all right so tomorrow is my practical assessment
for my drone certification or the repl course I've managed to pass all my
online modules thank goodness I don't even worry about studying them I managed
to power it through over the last couple of weeks and tomorrow is the yeah it's
pretty much the you know the final step in order for me to get my certification
all I know it's gonna be a full day thing the PO can assess my you know my
basic and advanced maneuver skills and also you know how to plan missions you
know how to sort of set up a flight plan and all those things so probably things
that I've learned in the online module I'm gonna put it into practice along
with you know those basic and advanced movers so that they can see and grade
how good I am as a drone pilot something like that now they have been practicing
the basic and advanced mulu maneuvers sorry
the advanced maneuvers I wasn't quite sure with how to do some of the things
in there so caught up with my flight instructor and showed me a couple of
things couple pointers on how to do the advanced maneuvers it really comes down
to you know putting the time and effort to practice you know those maneuvers so
I've been practicing pretty much every day almost every day after work back
here in the open field again so just start practicing so on the maneuvers
just a lot of things to cover and it's 5:10 a.m. now to an eye level and you
move about 10 meters forward stop move 10 meters to excellent to the left then
you stop move backwards again 10 meters you know go to a nearby park and
practice you know doing the figure of 8 the horizontal or the vertical figure of
8 you know the points of interest the reverse points of interest challenges
only have really limited time in my battery and I really want to maximize my
my flight practice you know trying to squeeze every ounce on every minute of
that battery it's a practice mark my fingers in my controls and you know
because sometimes when you just move a little bit I just hover out so you
really need to have that type of control one thing I found out is you don't
actually look at the camera of your throne you actually fly with visual line
of sight on depending on the orientation of drone obviously that's gonna change
the controls you're in that's something that's new to me
because I always rely on the screen so at the iPhone screens to you know
because that's where you see your your videos this one's a little bit different
because I'm actually looking at the actual drone depending on the
orientation obviously that would change the movements and that's where they're
gonna grade you yet so time and effort to reorient myself understand the
direction of where the nose is or the tail and how do I do the horizontal aids
so for example you know you can do the horizontal eight with the front or nose
spacing at you but they will also test you if they if you're the tail is facing
at your you know it's the other way around then how you can do the figure of
eight and also if it's on sideways having them do the figure of eight so
that will really depend on how you maneuver with your controls I got a
phone call from my flight instructor just he gave me a rundown of what what
will happen tomorrow so my cold time is at 7:30 a.m. we'll need to wake up maybe
an hour before that because travel traveling to that location is about
thirty minutes it's an open area I didn't mention
they're gonna put some cones in and specific sort of measurements so that I
really need to be very tight when I fly you know really you know follow the
flight path that they're gonna present to me they told me to bring my drone so
I'm bringing the Maverick to zoom its like charging and charging batteries
yeah also told me to bring in notepads I've got packing up my drone use my
drone putting it there in the bag and I've got everything sorted in there my
notepad batteries charging yeah mortos charging as well I actually really like
this bag it fits everything in our three batteries I might do a quick video on
how to pack the Maverick to zoom into this fly more kit bag yeah watch that
space I'll drop the link down below once it's ready what else yeah look um yeah
try to get a good night's sleep tonight I'm really really excited
however I'm actually a little bit nervous and plus it's a whole day sort
of thing so it starts again starts at 7:30 I think we'll finish about 3:00 so
I'll be there I'll be there for at least a good six seven hours but you know how
I go hopefully I pass the practical assessment and I'll keep you all posted
just a quick reminder in planning to get a drone license or become a drone pad
here in Australia I've enrolled in our repl course and consists of two exams
one theoretical and one practical assessment I've done the theoretical
already and this is all the practical assessments so that's really thank you
so much for watching Oh before I forget appreciate for all my
subscribers out there thank you so much we've hit 500 subscribers thank you so
much thank you for joining the Chuo family and I'll definitely have
something in store for you thank you thank you so much thank you so much for
your support I am very very grateful ever grateful so we should be luck for
my exam tomorrow and I'll see you in my next video bye
