Cubo Naranja

respuesta rapida

Yes — register as operator with your NAA, obtain A1/A3 and consider A2 for closer flights.

Weight, C class and EASA subcategory

Maximum take-off mass (MTOM): 80 g. Class identification label: C2.

Even under 250 g, a camera triggers operator registration — same rule as DJI Mini series (EASA FAQ).

Operator registration

Under EASA rules you register as operator with your National Aviation Authority (NAA) — one number displayed on all UAS you own.

1. Register once as a drone operator with your NAA (EU Regulation 2019/947, Article 14).

2. Affix your operator registration number on every UAS you own — readable without tools.

3. Upload the number into the aircraft Remote ID system when the UAS bears a C1–C4 class mark (from 1 Jan 2024).

4. Registration is operator-level: one account covers all drones in Open and Specific categories.

Fees and renewal periods differ slightly by EU member state; see your NAA portal.

Certificate and exams

Add A2 when flying C1/C2 aircraft closer to uninvolved people under Open category A2 distance rules (min. 5 m, ideally height = distance).

A2 certificate: additional theoretical exam, often 30 questions at an NAA-approved centre, then A2 privileges in subcategory A2.

• A1/A3 — primer paso
• A2 — closer to people (C1/C2)
• STS — categoría específica comercial

Open category rules

Open category: VLOS, max 120 m above ground, respect national geo-zones and UAS geographical zones.

Subcategories A1, A2, A3 depend on aircraft mass, C class label and how close you fly to people.

Legacy aircraft (no C mark, placed on market before 1 July 2022) usually fly under A3 restrictions.

Geo-zones and flight planning

Check your national UTM/geo-zone map before every flight — not only the manufacturer's app.

Manufacturer app geo-awareness is helpful but not a legal substitute for your national UTM map.

Typical use of the Cube Orange

Cube Orange — CubePilot aircraft, 80 g MTOM, EASA class C2.

Typical scenarios

How the Cube Orange is typically used in the Open category. Always cross-check the C class label and local geo-zones.

• Park flight with the Cube Orange: check geo-zones, keep ≥50 m from uninvolved people (A3) or follow C0 rules (A1).
• Real-estate or promo flight: A2 subcategory, min. 30 m or 5 m in low-speed mode — plan before you fly.
• Exam prep: free A1/A3 base on A2STS — /a1-a3-exam.

Which certificate for the Cube Orange?

A1/A3 baseline plus A2 for closer operations under Open subcategory A2 rules.

Where do I check airspace restrictions?

Check your national UTM/geo-zone map before every flight — not only the manufacturer's app.

How much does registration and the exam cost?

Fees vary by member state; in Spain operator registration is €11 and the A1/A3 exam is free (2026 AESA fee schedule).
