SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background: Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part
107, subpart D, establishes requirements for unmanned aircraft
operations over people in the airspace of the United States. A person
that designs, produces, or modifies an unmanned aircraft for category 2
or category 3 operations over people must show that the unmanned
aircraft complies with the requirements in Sec. 107.120 or Sec.
107.130 by following a FAA-accepted means of compliance (MOC). A person
declares that an unmanned aircraft has been designed and produced to
meet the applicable requirements of Sec. 107.120 or Sec. 107.130 by
submitting a declaration of compliance (DOC) in accordance with the
requirements in Sec. 107.160 using the FAA's UAS Declaration of
Compliance website (<a href="http://uasdoc.faa.gov">uasdoc.faa.gov</a>).
On August 26, 2024, the FAA evaluated and accepted a DOC
application submitted by Aerial Vehicle Safety Solutions (AVSS) for the
Skydio X10 with AVSS Parachute Recovery System (PRS-X10). The assigned
tracking number was OOP000000176. On April 2, 2025, AVSS voluntarily
requested that the FAA rescind the DOC for the Skydio X10 with AVSS
Parachute Recovery System (PRS-X10). AVSS indicated that they are no
longer supporting this unmanned aircraft configuration and that no
production units were sold.
Basis for Recission: AVSS voluntarily requested the recission of
the DOC for the Skydio X10 with AVSS Parachute Recovery System (PRS-
X10) because it is no longer supporting the system. This will not
affect any production units because none were sold. Based on this
information, the FAA determined that a recission is warranted.
Recission: For the reasons stated herein, the FAA rescinds the DOC
tracking number OOP000000176 for the Skydio X10 with AVSS Parachute
Recovery System (PRS-X10) unmanned aircraft.
Issued in Washington, DC, on September 16, 2025.

Manager, Emerging Technologies Division, AFS-700.
