These test methods are being developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) with sponsorship from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology Directorate (S&T). They are being standardized through the ASTM International Standards Committee on Homeland Security Applications; Response Robots (ASTM E54.09). They are referenced in the National Fire Protection Association Standard for Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems Used for Public Safety Operations (NFPA 2400) as Job Performance Requirements to focus training and evaluate remote pilot proficiency.

Description:
This Basic Maneuvering Sequence combines five individual test methods to evaluate various vertical takeoff and landing system capabilities and/or remote pilot proficiency. It is intended as a reproducible measure of combined maneuvering capabilities after each test method has been completed individually. The test methods involved are the following:
- Maintain Position and Rotate (ASTM WK58931)
- Climb and Descend (ASTM WK#####)
- Fly Straight and Level (ASTM WK58934)
- Move and Rotate (ASTM WK58932
- Land Accurately (ASTM WK58935)

Scope:
This test methods is intended for small unmanned aircraft systems with vertical takeoff and landing capabilities. An onboard camera and remote display are required to perform this test.

Significance and Use:
This test method provides a repeatable measure of basic system maneuvering capabilities and remote pilot proficiency. It can be used in a controlled environment to measure baseline performance. Or it can be embedded into an operational training scenario to measure degradation due to environmental variables such as lighting, wind, weather, radio communications, GPS accuracy, etc.
The test apparatuses are low cost and simple to fabricate, so they can be replicated widely. This enables quantitative comparisons of capabilities across various systems to determine best-in-class performers. It also enables any pilot to measure and compare their own proficiency against local or national averages, as a percentage of “expert” pilots designated by the system manufacturers.

Summary of Test:
This test method is performed by a remote pilot in direct line of sight or with a visual observer if using extended first person viewing through the interface. The vehicle performs a defined sequence of maneuvering tasks within the specified apparatuses. Each maneuvering task requires alignment with cylindrical buckets to identify recessed targets inside. Successful alignment is achieved when no steering corrections are necessary to capture a screenshot showing the inscribed ring entirely. Fault conditions include extreme deviations from the intended flight paths or contact with the apparatus or ground.
