In the specialized world of aerial operations, transferring a Part 107 UAS involves more than just a physical exchange. A Maryland-compliant Bill of Sale is critical for protecting you from future liabilities—such as privacy invasion claims or airspace violations committed by the next owner. Under Md. Code Com. Law § 2-201, any equipment sale exceeding $500 must be in writing to be enforceable. Our document ensures you clearly define the payload, gimbal, and LiDAR specifications while including essential 'as-is' disclaimers and Maryland Personal Information Protection Act acknowledgments, legally severing your connection to the drone's future data collection practices.
Beyond the standard bill of sale sections, this template adds fields specific to Drone Pilot:
A Bill of Sale serves the core legal purpose of providing proof of the transfer of ownership of an item from the seller to the buyer. It formalizes the transaction and fulfills the legal need for documentation of the sale, aiding in preventing disputes over ownership and clarifying the terms and conditions agreed upon by the parties involved.
FAA Regulation Violations
Contracts can specify that pilot maintains active Part 107 certification and compliance with all FAA guidelines.
Privacy Invasions
Agreements often include clauses ensuring compliance with federal and state privacy laws, as well as specifying data collection practices.
Property Damage
Service contracts typically include indemnity clauses and require the pilot to have sufficient insurance to cover potential damages.
Airspace Violations
Contracts may require pilots to obtain necessary airspace authorizations and provide proof of compliance with flight plans.
For this bill of sale to be legally valid:
Common mistakes to avoid:
FAA Part 107
Governs the commercial operation of small unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS), detailing requirements for operation, pilot certification, and aircraft limitations.
Enforced by Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
FAA Section 336
Regulates model aircraft operations primarily for hobbyists, which can sometimes impact drone pilots in determining the commercial vs. recreational distinction.
Enforced by Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
State-specific drone laws
Each state may have specific laws regulating drone use, such as registration requirements, privacy laws, and restricting operations in certain areas (e.g., near critical infrastructure or private property).
Enforced by State Aviation Authority or Department of Transportation
Recommended coverage: Aviation Liability Insurance · Commercial General Liability Insurance · Drone Hull Insurance (covers damage to the drone) · Errors and Omissions (E&O) Insurance
Yes. Under Md. Code Com. Law § 2-201, the Statute of Frauds requires a written contract for the sale of goods priced at $500 or more to be legally enforceable. This is essential for drone pilots selling high-value LiDAR sensors or industrial-grade sUAS to ensure the transfer of ownership is recognized by both the state and the FAA.
Our Bill of Sale includes a specific Maryland Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA) clause and a 'Description of Item' section that records the exact serial number and condition at the time of sale. By documenting the precise time and date of transfer, you mitigate liability for any subsequent privacy invasions or unauthorized imagery captured by the buyer.
While the Bill of Sale primarily handles the transfer of personal property, it is best practice to include the aircraft's FAA registration number. This ensures the buyer is aware that the 'payload' and airframe must be re-registered with the FAA, and it reinforces the 'as-is' condition under Maryland's warranty disclaimer standards.
While Maryland law generally allows for simple signatures on personal property sales, notarization is highly recommended for high-value commercial UAS transactions to meet evidentiary standards in Maryland courts and to satisfy the 'Verification' requirements often requested by lenders or insurance providers.
