weight balanceFAA-published sample question (UAG, Aug 2021)
To ensure that the unmanned aircraft center of gravity (CG) limits are not exceeded, follow the aircraft loading instructions specified in the
A
Pilot's Operating Handbook or UAS Flight Manual.✓ Correct Answer
B
Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM).
C
Aircraft Weight and Balance Handbook.
Explanation
CG limits and loading instructions are established by the manufacturer for that specific aircraft, and AC 107-2A Appendix B says the manufacturer's weight-and-balance limits must be closely followed; that information is found in the aircraft's operating handbook or UAS flight manual. The AIM does not contain aircraft-specific loading data, and the Weight and Balance Handbook explains general principles but not the limits of a particular aircraft.
