The Ministry of Economic Development of Russia will not suspend the experiment on the use of drones for aerial cargo transportation and aviation works, according to Artem Sheikin, Deputy Chairman of the Council for the Development of the Digital Economy under the Federation Council.
The Ministry will continue to work on solving the problem of satellite signal instability for unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) at altitudes below 30 meters.
Within the framework of the EPR on UAS, conditions have been created for the use of UAS as part of unmanned aerial vehicles with a maximum take-off weight of 30 kilograms or less, using drone ports for aerial cargo transportation and aviation works on the territory of Innopolis (Republic of Tatarstan). At the same time, according to the information received during the monitoring of the EPR, difficulties are noted in the implementation of the EPR on UAS.
From February to December 2024, flights using drones are not carried out due to the lack of a stable satellite signal. This is due to increased measures to protect critical facilities in Innopolis.
The Ministry of Economic Development held meetings with representatives of the Ministry of Transport, the Ministry of Digital Development, Rosaviation, and other interested parties. Following the discussions, a decision was made on the impracticality of suspending the EPR on UAS and the need to find alternative solutions to the identified problems.
Sheikin noted that resolving these issues will allow for faster integration of technologies into everyday life, which will improve the country's economy.
