Leading drone manufacturer DJI has recently revealed that its Matrice M30 and Matrice M350RTK series drones have been recognized with pivotal certifications from the European Union, while the DJI Mavic 3 model has maintained its prior certification.

The DJI Matrice M30 series has achieved class C2 certification under Delegated Regulation 2019/945 EU, which allows drones to fly in the A2 subcategory of the open category. This subcategory pertains to flight operations within areas where it is not possible to maintain a safe distance from non-involved people. This classification requires specific training in the A2 subcategory, as well as the use of active geofencing, remote identification and low-speed operation functions.

Additionally, the Matrice M350RTK has achieved class C3 certification. With outstanding geofencing and remote identification functions, this certification enables the drone to satisfy safety and performance standards. The operation of class C3 drones is allowed in areas where non-involved people are not expected to be present, including rural areas and controlled industrial environments.

The DJI Mavic 3 had also previously obtained class C1 certification, permitting it to fly in the A1 subcategory of the open category. Under this subcategory, operation is enabled in areas where non-involved people may be present, although direct flight over these people is not permitted.

Through the certification of these three drones, DJI has realized total coverage of all subcategories within the open category, providing operators with a wide range of safe options for assorted enterprise use cases.
