A Category 1 small unmanned aircraft under Subpart D may operate over people if it
- A.weighs 0.55 pounds or less at takeoff, including everything on board, and has no exposed rotating parts that could lacerate human skin
- B.weighs 2 pounds or less and is equipped with propeller guards
- C.is operated by a remote PIC with at least 10 hours of flight time
Correct answer
A. weighs 0.55 pounds or less at takeoff, including everything on board, and has no exposed rotating parts that could lacerate human skin
Why
Category 1 is the lightest Subpart D category: a takeoff weight of 0.55 pounds or less including everything attached, and no exposed rotating parts that would lacerate human skin on impact. Pilot flight time is not a Subpart D category criterion, and 2 pounds is above every category's entry threshold without additional requirements.
