ParaZero expands Class C5 safety to Mavic 3 Pro drones

Drone operators in Europe now have more room to fly safely and legally, thanks to a new announcement from aerospace safety company ParaZero. The Israeli firm has expanded its compliance for DJI’s Mavic 3 drone line, adding full Class C5 certification for the Mavic 3 Pro and Mavic 3 Pro Cine models.

This move means ParaZero’s SafeAir system is now fully certified across all major Mavic 3 platforms, including the Mavic 3 Enterprise (M3E), Mavic 3 Thermal (M3T), Mavic 3 Pro, and Pro Cine.

Why does this matter? In Europe, Class C5 certification is key for drone operators looking to fly in complex environments — like crowded city streets or sensitive areas — under the Specific Category rules set by the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA).

“With this expanded certification, we are proud to complete our Class C5 coverage for the DJI Mavic 3 line,” says Boaz Shetzer, CEO of ParaZero. “Our goal is to equip drone operators with advanced safety solutions that unlock greater regulatory flexibility.”

The update comes after DJI officially marked the Mavic 3 Pro and Pro Cine with Class C2 status, making them eligible for further compliance through third-party safety tech like ParaZero’s SafeAir.

ParaZero’s SafeAir system adds an extra layer of protection by offering real-time flight monitoring, situational awareness, and a patented emergency parachute system. These features can help prevent accidents and enable safer missions in areas with tighter flight restrictions.

For drone professionals — especially those in public safety, inspection, or delivery — this opens the door to operating in places that were previously off-limits or required special permissions.

In short, with ParaZero’s latest certification, the full Mavic 3 family is now better equipped to meet Europe’s strict drone regulations — making the skies just a bit safer and a lot more accessible.
