Explanation
Only Category 4 requires an airworthiness certificate: under 14 CFR 107.140(b)(1) the small UA must have an airworthiness certificate issued under part 21 and be operated within its operating limitations. Category 2 and 3 aircraft instead rely on a manufacturer's FAA-accepted declaration of compliance with the injury-severity requirements (107.120, 107.130).
