In Episode 7 of Sky Commander Academy, we tackle what could make or break your mission when things go wrong: your drone’s emergency systems. From sudden signal loss to airspace violations, smart RPAS pilots don’t just hope for the best — they prepare for the worst.

This episode breaks down the essential safety features built into modern drones and explains exactly what Transport Canada expects you to know for the Basic RPAS Certificate.

You’ll learn:

  • How Return-to-Home (RTH) really works — and why it sometimes fails

  • What Fail-safe settings you should activate before every flight

  • How Geofencing can save your drone — or stop your mission cold

  • Why understanding these systems is critical not just for the exam, but for real-world flying

If you’ve ever asked, “What happens if I lose control of my drone?” — this episode has the answers.

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
