What could be a sign of unstable air conditions during flight?

  1. Smooth flight with low turbulence

  2. Good visibility and steady winds

  3. Sudden changes in altitude and rough air

  4. Consistent weather patterns

The correct answer is: Sudden changes in altitude and rough air

Sudden changes in altitude and rough air indicate unstable air conditions because they are characteristic of turbulent air masses. When air is unstable, it tends to rise and fall unpredictably, leading to variations in altitude and a bumpy flight experience. This often occurs when warm air rises rapidly through cooler air, creating turbulence. Pilots need to be aware of these signs as they can affect the performance and control of the drone, leading to challenges in maintaining a stable flight path. The other options reflect conditions indicative of stability, with smooth flight, good visibility, steady winds, and consistent weather patterns suggesting a more uniform and controlled flying environment.
