ISO/TC 20/SC 16/WG 2 - Product manufacturing and maintenance
This Working Group specifies the quality and safety requirements for components of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) to influence the design and manufacturing process. This group is focusing on the individual components that comprise a UAS to further operational safety. The standards will include information regarding components associated with the unmanned aircraft, any associated remote control station(s), the command and control links, any other required data links (e.g. payload, traffic management information, vehicle identification) and any other system elements as may be required. Future standards may include technical specifications for the design and manufacturing of UAS components, where creating a standard will enhance UAS safety or interoperability.
Fabrication et maintenance des produits
Ce groupe de travail fixe les exigences de qualité et de sécurité des composants de drones aériens (UAS) ayant une incidence sur les processus de conception et de fabrication. Ses travaux sont axés sur les divers composants des UAS pour en améliorer la sécurité d'exploitation. Les normes comprendront des informations relatives aux composants associés à l'aéronef sans pilote, aux stations de contrôle à distance, aux liaisons de commandement et de contrôle, et aux autres liaisons de données nécessaires (par exemple, charge utile, informations relatives à la gestion du trafic, identification des engins) ainsi qu'aux autres éléments du système en tant que de besoin. Les futures normes pourront inclure des spécifications techniques pour la conception et la fabrication des composants d'UAS. L'élaboration d'une norme améliorera la sécurité et l'interopérabilité des UAS.
General Information
This document specifies general and manufacturing requirements for tethered unmanned aircraft systems (tUAS), including heavier-than-air tethered unmanned aircraft (tUA), which are powered by equipment on the ground. The specifications are intended for tUAS where the purpose for the tether is to supply power to the tUA as well as to provide a mechanical restraint. Unmanned aircrafts (UAs) that are not receiving power from and only restrained by the tether are referred to ISO 21384-2; however, there are clauses in this document that apply to the tethering equipment (e.g. winches and cables). This document is applicable to the development, manufacturing, industrial applications and delivery of tUAS.

This document specifies requirements for ensuring the quality and safety of the design and manufacture of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) that include unmanned aircraft (UA), remote pilot stations (RPS), datalinks, payloads, and associated support equipment. This document includes information regarding the unmanned aircraft, any associated remote pilot station (RPS)(s), the command and control links (C2 Link), any other required data links (e.g. payload, traffic management information, vehicle identification) and any other system elements as can be required. This document does not cover passenger carrying UAS or technical requirements for the design and manufacturing for UAS components. This document does not include equipment considerations unique to compliance with UA traffic management systems. The document is applicable to the reasonable expected use of a UAS. This document is applicable: a) to UAS designed for use where a State aviation authority has determined a Certificate of Airworthiness (C of A) is not required; b) where a C of A is required, to complement technical standards published by the aviation authority for the purposes of building the certification basis; or c) as an alternative means of compliance if acceptable to the aviation authority.

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an independent, non-governmental international organization that develops and publishes international standards. Founded in 1947 and headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, ISO brings together experts from 170+ member countries to share knowledge and develop voluntary, consensus-based standards that support innovation and provide solutions to global challenges.
A Subcommittee (SC) in ISO operates under a Technical Committee and focuses on a specific subset of the TC's scope. Subcommittees develop standards and technical specifications in their specialized area, reporting to their parent Technical Committee. They may also have working groups for detailed technical work.
