Seriously you could tape it to the window in the plane and you'd have a hard time reaching a cellphone 50ft. away on the tarmac. It will not go much further than that. Talk JB into doing an actual range test video on this product. Also he probably won't. :) Unless he's in the mood to showcase an up to 100FT. range.
When it comes, you won't do anything about it. Either sell your drone, be fined to oblivion, or fall back in line. Sfatistically its the 3rd option that is most likely.

You can make any unit pluggable by adding a connector in series with the solder connection. I use a bunch of MX1.25 connectors in my drone builds. Amazon sells the MX1.25 connects with crimped on male and female connectors. This lets me easily swap GPS and other components in my drones. Flight controllers generally use either SH1.0 or GH1.25 latching connectors. I can only find the female connectors to these so I can't make inline connections with these more common style of connectors. I still keep a supply of SH1.0 or GH1.25 on hand to make up wiring harnesses for flight controllers which use these connectors. Make sure you get the silicone wires. The PVC wire doesn't bend well.
Hey man, Thank you for all of the great, fun and educational content! I've just started to scratch the surface of FPV and am very grateful for your channel & content! Just wanted to drop you an encouraging, "Thank you!" comment... as I imagine you get plenty of the opposite from people who just need to get off their keyboard and get outside more.
If a drone is sold prebuilt, it cant use module based RID, it must use Standard RID. Standard Remote ID broadcasts the pilots location AND the aircrafts the location at all times. So your phone is used for the GPS for your location.
I think it's something about the fact that it's being sold as a complete product, not meant for modification. The FAA has like three different classes of RID, and that one requires the pilot location as well, so they make use of the phone GPS to get that info. Thanks FAA...
You don't need to go through the process of doing the registration on the APP for this module. Once you get it, charge it and start using it. I have this module and I didn't bother going through this app registration. It works as intended without the extra info.
I saw on another channel that if your using the ruko app and you lose your drone somewhere you can use the RID to find your drone whether it's in a tree or lost in tall grass but not in water. This is something we all need to protect our investment and put a stop to losing our quads. I think I'm time vifly will come out with something like this with GPS and RID AIO. It would be nice to have one in the back of your drone with a TPU slot so you could take it in and out with slotted pins for easy PNP from drone to drone. Maybe someone will read this and think of some way to make just that.
There are several clones of this one. I have one from Bwine. Amazon has a bunch. Prices run the gamut. Cheapest is $30. I strapped it to a DJI drone to compare reporting of locations. The Bwine app didn't report the DJI drone. Interesting...
@@JoanMendoza ok cool. But think about it.. it makes sense for an air plane to avoid collisions. But we’re not allowed past 400’ and no one gets hurt if we collide with each other.
@@LenZFPV You're not supposed to go above 400' OR fly over people, property? without a waiver. There's a difference between allowed and in trouble and people are on the wrong side of that very frequently. Not to mention the video's on the FAA website make it look like YOUR flying over people without a waiver will have a swat team down on you in 15 minutes WHEREAS history shows, multiple, un-identified drones and everyone stands around with the junk in their hands wondering what to do. I believe when it comes to the government BOTH scenarios are true. You, Me, JanetBlo flying a drone/model airplane? Here comes SWAT. Government up to something sneaky? Whu? We don't know what to do but trust me, the guy that's done everything to bankrupt, overrun and destroy this country since the president appointed me, is in charge and there's nothing to worry about with these Car sized drones, coming in from the ocean and hovering over air force bases, Golf courses owned by someone we've tried to assassinate twice, and you know, stuff. Politics aside, it's rules for us and not for them. I'm sure you're remark was tongue in cheek.😀
My main issue with carrying an RID module on a purely freestyle build is that it really will not fit inside my frame (source one v5) so id be forced to have it on a tpu mount sticking off the quad where it'll break every crash
Not so. Two things. First, check out the Phoenix mRID. It’s tiny and connects to a GPS module. Or a Flite Test FT EZ ID which has a self contained GPS. You may install either of these modules within the frame. And they are both small. Putting the broadcast inside a carbon frame will reduce the broadcast range but it is still compliant. Dave Messina, FPVFC
I'm a professional land surveyor... whether I like it or not, I have to stay in compliance. Used one of these Ruko devices for the first time today on a mapping mission. It worked well. Even when the drone was at its farthest (maybe 700' away), drone scanner picked it up.
Holy Stone, has almost the same RID and just lowered their price to match Ruko. So all this time they have been overcharging for their product because they didn't have a competitor.
I know the Bill of Material costs for a coupe, of these. I cannot understand how Ruffo is making these and making ANY money on the product. It is possible they used open source for their software as the code is readily available. Also, the FAA Declaration of Compliance requires the manufacturer to certify that bench and field testing has been performed.
@@JoshuaBardwell Cool, thanks! I'm shocked a TH-camr actually responded to my comment lol. I sent you an email but since you replied here I might as well ask, do you plan on reviewing the DarwinFPV cement stack? Cuz if you don't, I might have to make a video on it lol! Anyways, if it's not too much trouble, do you have any thoughts on this product or DarwinFPV products in general? Thanks!
This was a perfect solution for me to fly an FPV gig right next an airport. It's a good device if you're doing FPV work where you need waivers or where people care about compliance.
I run the holybro. Same concept. Want 3d printed holder at some point. I quit running a camera and fly for myself now. Much more fun than worrying about “the shot”
I have this......pretty easy to use, doesn't add much weight. 100% possible to fly LOS beyond the range of this device.. Feature or bug.................probably depends on you perspective.
It's a really reasonable law. FPV drones are obviously dangerous, they do 130mph. We can fly all we want, just need an identifier? And you think that's unreasonable? Grow up. They gave us a seat at the table, we lobbied for our interests, and we got some of the most restrictive stuff taken out. The system worked, no thanks to people like you who did none of the lifting or donating.
@@geometerfpv2804 So having to tag everything regardless of it's weight because you have a 107 is reasonable? I do think there needs to be weight classes, and then different laws that relate to those different weights. Yeah, drones can be dangerous, but what about toothpicks and whoops? We have laws the prohibit drones from being flown in certain areas already. Did I say I want a free for all, anything goes?! It's pretty narrow minded to assume what I believe in without engaging in a conversation first.
Holyton H60 13.5 grams $29 Amazon.... Each remote RID has a serial number, that serial number is entered into the FAA database then they (FAA) generate the FAA number. The Remote ID is the device Serial number, in the FAA DOC database they list the RID devices by manufacture, model, RID start and end numbers. All my DJI serial numbers start with 1581 (+12 other chars) if they support RID as that is what appears in the Drone Scanner. The REALLY screwed part of the RID Part 107 is one module , one drone but there is no link between them in the FAA database.
Hey Joshua, I built my first drone with your tutorial last week but for some reason the video on my goggles only work when I’m close to the drone. When I take a step back it stops working. Do you know why this is happening?
That is a good price. Shame can't use the built in gps. I have the Lumeneir rid module. Can use it as a gps and compass. Tpu mount from Brain3D. You no longer need a serial number for recreational flying.
I've recently bought a meteor 75 pro i only got it like a week or 2 ago and I want to upsize but idk if I should keep practice more on my 75 as I'm a beginner or will it be okay to upsize and if someone dose recommend to upsize what should I get?
I fly at a FRIA BUT also fly at my house. Mostly I just fly those little Volantex airplanes and I'm just trying to kill the itch while I can't get to the field. But my bigger aircraft that I'm comfortable with flying here (I have 3 acres) are over the 250g limit. To get ready for Jan 1st fun fly I needed to make sure they're ready but don't have the hour to go, fly and come back for 1-2 minute flights. Ya, I just flew. I broke the rules. But I'd also like to see, how high I get ( I mean I KNOW how high I got, My house +10 feet. And I get so negative about Tail Heavy Productions and their necessity of 3D everything and flying through the woods then think nothing of taking off between my trees, going around, up over the house, behind another tree then remember almost too late I have another tree I planted last year between the two I was gonna split and then STOLing the plane down to land at my feet. Ok, they fly through wooded paths, they simply don't care how much money the crash costs, savages) Can I get a velocity out of this thing? other stuff that GPS would give me. Does this thing have to be outside the plane? Can I safely secure it INSIDE the plane. Velcro only holding on isn't going to be a great deal on something that breaks 100 consistently. Also, though the 400 foot limit at our field is now 800, how HIGH is that 7 foot wingspan airplane of mine when I'm climbing? Not to mention the +100 mph plane that has unlimited vertical. 10 years ago when I was flying it regularly I'd launch, go out 100 yards and then climb up till I was having a bit of an issue seeing it. Chop the throttle and it'll come right back down, vertical rolling, and then go about flying. Generally I put a climbing prop on it anyways to keep the speeds down. 80 mph is plenty fast when it goes where ever you point it. I have a couple little quad Copters, never really jivved with them. Their' cool and all, don't get me wrong. BUT I came into this hobby back in the 70s and really, the most relaxing and fun thing I do is touch n go's. Flown beginner pattern and Combat there all fun but drones don't fly like airplanes. Though it is kinda fun to hover around my living room with the FPV goggles on. So much so, I haven't done THAT in about 7 years.
This seems to be one of many clones, but the good news.. there is a $27 version branded 'Holyton'. I hate the whole idea of RID, but for $27 I'll have one.
On any given day in the US there are well over 10 million vultures/eagles/geese/cranes flying in the NAS, and many routinely fly several thousand feet high. These birds exist in higher numbers, weight, sizes, and risk than all the modelers in the entire country. They and we have been flying in the NAS with minimal incidents for decades. The same record does not hold for firearms (consider which has grossly higher risk to the general public)... Following the absurdity of the FAA rationale to its logical conclusion, will the FAA mandate each wild bird also be captured and equipped with an RID module? Then re-captured every few months to replace the batteries?
thank you Joshua, it was interesting to get know about those remote ID device. Did not know about them at all and that's not allowed to fly in EU and US without them
Picked this up in the summer for a job that involved an FAA waiver and on scene communication with everyone approved to fly with FAA and law enforcement. Worked perfectly, affordable, lightweight, and kept me compliant. Flown on a Flywoo Flylens 85
It’s going to be hilarious the first time someone forgets to turn this off and it’s in their luggage on a plane

Joke is that these things are barely working, just enough to pass FAA requiments , so it probably won't transmit through your luggage
A plane is a faraday cage. The signal is not getting out very far unless someone puts it in the window.

oh wait I have the Holystone version of basically this same module* still same concept, worked perfect, easy to program.
I bought one for $35 because it was cheap and self-contained. It might help me find a lost plane someday, provided I put it in it.
This RID module will only help you find your plane if you are using a RID receiving app. It does not connect to BetaFlight as Joshua described.
