Which Cx label does my DJI drone have?

Want to quickly find out which C-label your DJI drone has and where you’re allowed to fly?

Below you’ll find a complete, up-to-date overview for each DJI model. This way, you can immediately see whether you’re in A1, A2, or A3 and whether your drone can fly and be assigned a label later via a firmware update.

Tip: If your drone isn’t on the list or doesn’t have a C-label, then starting in 2024, you’ll automatically fly in A3 (well away from people).

What is a C-label?

Chart showing the five C-labels from 0 to 4 for drones in the EU

Since 2024, drones within the EU have had a Cx label. This label specifies which rules apply when flying a drone. In the open category There are five labels: C0 through C4. In the specific category There are two more labels: C5 and C6.

A C-label (C0 through C4) indicates the safety class your drone falls under according to European legislation. Manufacturers such as DJI provide this label and associate it with:

weight
security features (including Geo-awareness, Remote ID)
maximum speed
technical requirements

The label determines where your drone will end up in the open category:

A1: fly over people, but not over a gathering of people
A2: flies that come close to people
A3: fly far away from people

**Please note**: Weight isn't the only factor that determines which category a drone falls into;
the presence of certain features and safety measures plays just as big a role.
C-label	's maximum weight	Cat.	Where are you allowed to fly?
C0	Less than 250 g	A1	Do not fly over gatherings of people Keep the flight altitude below 120 m above the ground
C1	Less than 900 g	A1	Do not fly over gatherings of people
C2	Less than 4 kg	A2	You are not allowed to fly over people who are not involved. Maintain a horizontal distance of 30 meters from bystanders (this distance can be reduced to 5 meters if low-speed mode is activated) Keep the flight altitude below 120 meters above the ground
C3	Less than 25 kg	A3	You are not allowed to fly over people who are not involved . Maintain ahorizontal distance of 150 meters from bystanders and urban areas Keep the flight altitude below 120 m above the ground
C4	Less than 25 kg	A3	You are not allowed to fly over people who are not involved . Maintain ahorizontal distance of 150 meters from bystanders and urban areas Keep the flight altitude below 120 meters above ground level

Overview: Which DJI model has which C-label?

Below is an overview of all DJI models grouped by series, along with their official C-label.

Want to make sure your drone has received a European C-label? The official and most recent list can be found here: Official EASA list of C-labeled drones.

C2	DJI Matrice 4T DJI Matrice 4E DJI Mavic 4 Pro DJI Mavic 3 Pro Cine DJI Mavic 3 Pro
C3	DJI Inspire 3

What if your drone doesn’t have a C-label?

Does your drone not have a C-label? If so, Europe considers that drone to be a legacy drone. Starting January 1, 2024, these drones will automatically fall under A1 or A3, depending on their weight.

Drones weighing less than 250 grams remain within A1, which means you’re still allowed to fly close to people (but not over a gathering of people).

All drones weighing 250 grams or more without a C-label fall under Category A3 category. This means you may only fly in open areas, far away from people, homes, and busy zones.

Some models may still receive European approval at a later date, but that will only happen if DJI releases an update and the drone technically meets all the requirements.

Not sure which C-label your drone has?

Not entirely sure which C-label your drone has, or are you unsure whether your drone falls under A1, A2, or A3? Don’t worry—that’s perfectly normal. The rules change regularly, and some drones don’t receive their label until after a firmware update. Do you want to be sure that you fly correctly and safely?
