Flight Control Failure Alerting

In plain language

If a likely failure occurs that affects the flight controls or limits how the drone can fly, the system must immediately alert the pilot.

Requirement as structured

CAAS guidance states that the UAS crew must be alerted if any single or multiple failure that is not extremely improbable affects the flight control system or limits the aircraft's flight envelope or maneuverability.

Original regulatory text

Where single (or multiple) failure, not shown to be extremely improbable, affects the flight control system or limits the flight envelope or maneuverability, the UAS crew must be alerted.
