Operator Permit Variation for Drone Modifications

In plain language

If you modify your drone (hardware, software, or components) after CAAS has approved its configuration, you must apply for a variation of your Operator Permit before flying it.

Requirement as structured

CAAS requires UA Operator Permit (OP) holders to submit a variation application if any modifications are made to an approved UA configuration.

Original regulatory text

If modifications are made to a UA after CAAS has approved an earlier configuration, the holder of the UA OP would need to submit a variation of OP application to seek approval for the updated UA configuration.
