In this bonus briefing, Season 2 Episode 40, from Sky Commander Academy, we bring together everything you need to know from Section 2.3 — RPAS Fail-Safe Systems — and review the tech, triggers, and tactics that can save your drone (and your license) when things don’t go according to plan.

If you’re heading into the Advanced RPAS Certificate Exam or operating in complex environments, your fail-safe systems knowledge must be airtight. This episode makes sure it is.

You’ll review:

• How Return-to-Home (RTH) is triggered — and how to make sure it doesn’t land in the wrong place

• What fail-safe features do (and don’t do) when signal is lost or systems glitch

• The role and limitations of geofencing — and why relying on it can be dangerous

• The importance of manual override procedures and pilot intervention

• Emergency response protocols when operating near people or critical infrastructure

Whether you’re flying a high-end commercial drone or preparing for your Flight Review, this episode reinforces the fail-safe knowledge that sets pros apart from the rest.
