In the high-stakes world of sUAS operations, a generic bill of sale is insufficient. For Washington drone pilots, transferring ownership requires precise documentation of the aircraft's FAA-registered components, including the gimbal, LiDAR, and payload systems. Whether you are upgrading your fleet or selling a used unit, our document ensures compliance with RCW 19.36.010 (Statute of Frauds) and provides clear disclaimers to mitigate liability for future FAA violations, privacy complaints, or property damage. By formalizing the transfer, you verify the seller’s lawful ownership and ensure the buyer accepts the equipment in its current technical state, protecting both parties under Washington state law.
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
Under RCW 19.36.010, certain agreements must be in writing to be enforceable. For high-value drone equipment or sales involving payment terms that extend far into the future, a written Bill of Sale is essential to satisfy legal requirements and prevent disputes over ownership and financial obligations.
Yes. To ensure the document is enforceable and effectively transfers the specific asset, you must include the make, model, and the FAA Registration Number or the Remote ID serial number. This prevents ambiguity regarding which sUAS is being transferred and helps the buyer update their Part 107 records.
Our Bill of Sale includes recommended 'As-Is' warranties and buyer acknowledgments. Once ownership is transferred, these clauses help shield the seller from liability related to the buyer's future flight operations, such as privacy invasions under the Washington Privacy Act (RCW 9.73) or property damage resulting from pilot error.
Under RCW 26.16, assets acquired during a marriage are generally considered community property. If the drone was purchased during a marriage, it is best practice to ensure both spouses provide consent for the sale to confirm a valid title transfer without future legal claims.
