Design of a compliance strategy for SC Light UAS

In an era where Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) are revolutionising industries through their diverse applications, offering innovative solutions, the criticality of their safe assimilation into existing airspace has emerged as a forefront concern. This transformation underscores the unprecedented need...

description In an era where Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) are revolutionising industries through their diverse applications, offering innovative solutions, the criticality of their safe assimilation into existing airspace has emerged as a forefront concern.

This thesis proposes a detailed and comprehensive compliance strategy for the design verification of Special Condition Light UAS (SC Light UAS), with a focus on thoroughly understanding and adhering to relevant European regulations, particularly within the Specific operational category.
