Any model exeding 20kg must have an exemption certificate issued by caa Basicaly means the a/c plans and build will be inspected by a person apointed by caa. the a/c must be test flown and proved ( usually 2 hrs ) before any show certificate will be issued Pilots must prove competence I think min B rating The aircraft can not normally be operated within controlled airspace ie withn 3nm of an airfield
If the model weights over 150kg a full certificate of airworthiness is required
