ICAO DRONE ENABLE Symposium 2022
14 - 16 November 2022
Montréal , CANADA

Learn more about the development of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) in public airspace at this ICAO symposium. This includes how and under what conditions drones are used in air mobility and what safety precautions need to be taken.

The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Symposium on DRONE ENABLE will be held in Montreal, CANADA from November 14-16, 2022. The theme of the symposium is "Learning from the Past for a Better Future."

Stakeholders from civil aviation, industry and other stakeholders will discuss various areas on the topic of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) and workable regulations. Networking, coordination and collaboration will be the focus of the symposium.

Most unmanned aircraft systems (drones) are powered by lithium batteries.
To ensure safety in airspace and during the transport of drones, there are requirements in the transport regulations for each of these lithium batteries.
E.g. they must be manufactured according to the quality management system described in the regulations and they must have passed the UN 38.3 test.

What exactly this QM program has to look like, we have put together for you under this link:

What is tested in this UN Test Series 38.3 can be found here:

High-quality drones have lithium-ion-batteries with more than 100 Wh. For large lithium cells and batteries three more technical requirements need to be fulfilled:

• Short circuit fuse
• safety venting device or safety device against violent rupture
• for cells / series of cells connected in parallel: protection against dangerous reverse currents

Before shipping or transporting a " large" lithium-battery, check with the manufacturer or supplier of the battery to make sure that all criteria are met.
Our Supplier Inquiry Form includes all necessary queries for the logistics process, including the further technical requirements for "large" batteries.

Since 01.01.2020 onwards a UN 38.3 Test Summary needs to be provided by the manufacturer and any subsequent supplier on request. We have included all required details of the UN 38.3 Test Summary in our Supplier Inquiry Form.

For shipping drones and their lithium ion batteries Lithium-Battery-Service offers you all information for preparing the transport in our checklist article. In addition to a checklist for transport preparation, our checklist articles also include all current markings and labels for each transport case and, if necessary, samples of the required transport documents.
