Fatigue results in which outcome?

Fatigue results in which outcome?

• A. Increased energy
• B. Enhanced vigilance
• C. Lower performance
• D. Improved accuracy

Answer: (C)

Fatigue reduces performance. When you’re tired, alertness and reaction time drop, attention can wander, and processing information becomes slower. In drone operations, this shows up as slower responses to hazards, poorer situational awareness, and more errors in control and interpretation of sensor data. Fatigue undermines both cognitive and motor function, so you don’t see increases in energy, vigilance, or accuracy—the overall effect is lower performance.
