Applicable Regulation
EU Dual-Use Regulation (EU) 2021/821, Annex I.
Analysis
Category 7 — Navigation and Avionics
- Commercial MEMS IMUs (MPU6000, BMI270), open source firmware (Betaflight/INAV)
- Functionally equivalent to general-purpose MCU dev boards with accelerometers
- Don't meet Cat 7A performance thresholds (military-grade INS, ring laser gyros)
- Conclusion: Not controlled
Category 9A012 — Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
- Controls complete UAV SYSTEMS meeting specific range/endurance/payload thresholds
- Incutec sells individual components only, not complete systems
- Commodity electronics for hobbyist self-assembled multirotors
- FPV racing/freestyle drones do not meet MTCR payload/range thresholds
- Conclusion: Not controlled
Category 5 — Telecommunications & Information Security
- ELRS + VTX operate on ISM bands (2.4 GHz, 868/915 MHz, 5.8 GHz) — publicly available, unlicensed
- No encryption beyond standard wireless protocols
- No military-grade spread spectrum or anti-jamming
- Conclusion: Not controlled
Article 5 Catch-All
- MS catch-all authority for non-listed items with suspected WMD/military end-use
- Incutec products = consumer hobby electronics, no plausible WMD application
- Risk: Negligible for standard commercial sales
Conclusion
None of Incutec's products listed in Annex I of Reg (EU) 2021/821. No export license required for commercial sales to non-sanctioned countries.
Mitigations
Despite non-classification:
- All orders screened against EU sanctions lists (see
sanctions-screening.md) - Unusual bulk orders to sensitive destinations flagged for manual review
- Assessment reviewed annually or when adding new product types
