As castormalin has pointed out, EASA will not be issuing labels/certifications on sold drones. Current MA2 owners for example, will be seen as 'legacy' drones. Source: Dronewatch.nl (Dutch article)
In consequence, to place an “old” product on the market with a class identification label you need to fully apply Regulation (EU) 2019/945 as it was a new product, i.e.:
– You need to ensure full technical compliance of the product with the requirements applicable to its class
– You need to demonstrate its compliance to these requirements, using the methods defined in the Regulation
– Of course you may reuse the technical file produced to demonstrate the compliance of the “old” product with other legislations (like the RED, etc.)
– You need to issue a new certificate of conformity including now Regulation (EU) 2019/945
This, however, also means that there is no possibilities to transform an “old” product already sold into a “new” product by a simple s/w update performed by the customer (and the provision of the adequate class logo). Such an update must be done before the placing on the market and reflected in the conformity assessment and the technical file.” |
