Preclusion of Severe Injury from Single Failure (Operations Over People)

In plain language

When operating over people, the drone's design must guarantee that a single failure will not severely injure anyone within 5 meters of the drone.

Requirement as structured

TCCA accepts as a means of compliance that the RPAS design must preclude any single failure that could result in severe injury to a person on the ground within 5 meters of the RPA.

Original regulatory text

The RPAS must be assessed to show that the design precludes the occurrence of any single failure which may result in a severe injury to a person on the ground within 5m of the RPA while in operation.
