This is what happens if you give the FAA a inch! We should’ve been In in a up roar when the FAA required registration.
We drone users are going into a new realm and think it’s ours now? It’s their skies and their rules that kept the skies save for many many years we are the unwelcome guest we have to play by their rules😢
@@Rmi_brandito oh shut up they don't own a thing unless God gives it.
It's similar to the old what if they had a war and nobody came? If nobody complies the government has no authority. The government draws the authority from the consent of the people.
If you are not responsible to fly by becoming certified. Then you shouldn’t be flying. You follow rules for safety for everyone.
Too many people who are completely submissive to the "authorities".
A lot of information squeezed into as short a time as possible but done very clearly and precisely. Well done Greg, very well explained.
This was so helpful. I have a new DJI Air 3 and last week when I registered it through the FAAdronezone I neglected to indicate that it had RID. Based on this video I was able to confirm the Air 3 is RID active and compliant. Just edited my FAA registration to reflect the active RID. Thanks for showing us where to find the information on the DJI controller. Easy enough. :)
Hello Greg, thank you for providing this updated information on Remote ID. Excellent overview. Hopefully, the bigger manufacturers will update their compliance for remote ID.
Best video on being compliant with RID! Great Job!! Thank you!
great overview and instruction. Always with Pilot Institute!
You rock! Thank you for taking the time to do this video!
Concise and informative! Thank you.
Thank you. A brilliant, clear and easy to understand explanation of what is a rather complicated process.
Great content Greg & team! One note with respect to Remote ID for the Air 2s with the Smart Controller. After performing all the necessary software and firmware updates I could not get rid of the constant Remote ID Error (Code: 161000B4) and the accompanying Unable to takeoff (Code: 30064) error in the DJI Fly app. However, what I was finally able to figure out is if you leave the Fly app and perform the following steps you will finally clear those error messages and be able to fly:
- Pull down the device menu from the top of the screen.
- Go to the Setup screen (via the gear icon at the top)
- Scroll down to the "Personal" section and click on "Location" (which, in my case, was set to OFF)
- Flip the switch from Off to On
- Choose whatever location "Mode" you prefer (I kept the default of "Device only")
- Back out of the settings menu and reboot the controller.
- Problem solved!
PS - Disappointingly, a call to DJI Technical Support on this issue was not helpful in surfacing the eventual solution documented above!
Here's what you do: 1) Smash your bullshit off-the-shelf "drone".
2) Build a real drone.
Thank you for posting this video- great information. Keep up the awesome work.
Thanks for the information on this heated topic. At 2:02 Should mention no need to log in to my access sign in. Just click view public Doc list
Greg you always have great information. Thank You.
Thank You Greg......Great information !!!
Excellent, precise, and time saving explanation. Well done!
Thanks for the easy to follow instructions.
Thanks for the great information!!
Thank you so very much Greg. This is very important information for keeping our drones compliant along with the remote, etc.
Have a great weekend everyo
Do you like big brother and everyone else know what you are doing? go comply then lol.
@@chrisb3976 I know Chris so many people in community are more than willing to comply they will cry when they eventually ban the public from flying drones and will have details of all drone pilots
Awesome video, very helpful!
I have an Original DJI Smart Controller just like mentioned in the video. I was also not able to fly with my Air2S. I received a system upgrade last night and it now works.
Same here. I upgraded to .01.00.0797
Remote ID has basically turned flying drones into a business only scenario. So many ways they could of fixed all this besides remote ID.
excellent info. thanks.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Excellent!
I find only the Zephyr Systems Module 100 on the FAA's Declaration of Compliance page, filtering for "Module". Are there others yet that are actually approved (or pending) besides the $300 one that was first to market as demonstrated here? FAA suggested during rollout that modules would cost $25, IIRC
BRILLIANT overview. The most complete, accurate, and easy to follow content on the topic so far!
Blame Ukraine. When they showed how recreational drones could be used to fight a standing army our government panicked
thank you very help full
Great Video!!
Good one Greg! ;-) Thank you! T
This video really helped. Of course one of my drones the Autel EVO2 is not the version 3. Uggggggg.. I guess I'll have to get the module.
Great information. I have the Air 2S and it has the 10 digit aircraft SN. It shows a Remote ID number that does not fall into the range you showed in the video. I go to the upper left and it shows Remote ID functionality normal. I’m guessing mine is working properly?
Thank you
Thanks
Very informative video now do one about the faa and how its end goal is to ban the public from flying drones and remote Id is to collect details of regular pilots ie us in the hobby
So after watching the vdo, Skydio 2 & DJI Mini SE r not remote id compliant. So a Remote ID module is needed 4 both. So having Mini Se & as recreational pilot, does the Mini SE still need Remote ID? Thx 4 sharing on Utube. As always Pilot Institute provides the best resource of info 4 us drone pilots.
Very informative. As I’m new to the drone world do I have to worry about remote ID on my mini two and mini three pro? Not 100% clear on that could you please advise.
Just an update on the original Smart Controller. I have it with my Mavic Air 2 and just updated the DJI Fly app (I don't fly often) to the newest version and it now shows the Remote ID SN.
Question about the stand alone remote ID module. If the FAA says the RID cannot be turn off, then how does the module know when it's in use? Or is there an on/off switch or maybe motion sensor?
8:07 when I looked up the nano + on the DOC website, it only showed the Nano. Do you know if the plus is RID compatible?
How does the RID work for the M3E? When I search up mavic 3 e nothing comes up. And when I go to the controller and up at the top and tap on it it just says ready to fly with no notes.
So, I got a mavic 3 classic just to keep myself legal, and it certainly has the code as you described both in the app and on the remote itself. But the FAA license application keeps saying it's not a proper rid code. Is there something else I'm supposed to be adding?
Hey Greg I was a student of your in class and firstly thank you. I have a quick question: I currently have the Air 2S and the original smart controller as of today, 8/10/23, everything seems to compliant. Now I may be doing something incorrect, but my serial on drone is compliant and the controller says "Remote ID functionality norma(Code: 1B080003)" in the top left. I was wondering if I am completely compliant? Thanks again for the help.
Can one module be used on multiple drones, or is it registered so a specific drone?
So, can one make an older drone like the Evo Pro 2, v1 compliant using a module?
hello PI, can you please clarify the act of going to the faa database to put in your remote ID number does not trigger the remote ID function in you aircraft? it's just a listing in the database and it's a required step but it doesn't determine whether you drone has remote ID or not, it doesn't match up with your drone hardware, and/or the details are not used in conjunction with 3rd party apps that detect rid. i think there is some confusion on this being a necessary step in order to activate remote id, could you look into that please? the number you enter is verified as a valid entry but that's about it, no? not sure what is going to happen in the future.
when will we be able to edit / update the FAA site for remote ID ? right now I dont have the edit option.
Any idea on if an update for the DJI Mini 2 is in the works? I don't currently see it on the FAA DOC list, but there are contradicting opinions/statements online (including DJI posts in DJI forums...)
So I guess some non-RID 249g sUAS will then need to be registered after attaching an external module... question: I do have an original DJI smart RC with the Mavic 2 Pro - does that mean that I need to attach some a module to the RC as well..?
Looks like 1 of my 4 drones is remote ID compliant I'll have to get it approved. , so that leaves 3 that Ill have to get a module for , will that have to be 3 different modules or will one
be able to be assigned to multiple drones.
Tried to look up my registered drone's SN and it said it couldn't find it. Cool. I tried to edit my device details in my Dronezone inventory for my DJI FPV and only have the options "Cancel" or "Details", no "Edit" shows up for me. I tried FAA. Good luck out there.
Thanks Greg. The DroneZone updates are nice. All mine are now configured for RID. Now I just want to have the ability to see the darned things from our smart phones. It shouldn't be this hard.
Side note: your editors might want to switch to decaf.
The razzle-dazzle graphics were a bit much. I found the distracting to the point it made it difficult to focus on the material.
So if you have standard remote ID built in you'll see it in the the App of the controller under "About" ? what does it mean if you drone model is Accepted
under the declaration of compliance in the drone zone site. does that mean you won't need a module or does it Vary even if it's accepted.
Thanks Greg and Pilot Institute... All mine are RID and Updated on the FAA Drone Zone Site. One less thing to worry about when out flying. Get ere done!
What should one do if they have a DJI mini 4 Pro in USA with extended battery? No Remote idea option is available like your on the RC 2 controller
I have the original smart controller with Mavic 2. If I purchase remote ID module will it make both my mavic 2 and controller both ID compliant?
So will it your drone Id change as in what needs to be on the drone every time you renew the registration and certifications? Or am I being paranoid
Is there a way to link in the site where you have PI’s recommendations for the various broadcast modules?
We have not tested enough of them at the moment to make a list just yet. But we will!
Although sub 250 gram drones do not require remote ID, does the Autel Nano Plus broadcast Remote ID like the DJI Mini 3 Pro?
This is great information! However in my recreational flyer dashboard I do NOT have the 'Edit' option in my 'Actions' dropdown to change the remote ID to 'Yes'. I would think even recreational flyers should be able to edit their inventory. Unless I'm doing something wrong of course. Thoughts?
The FAA told us that it's a software limitation right now and that it will eventually be added.
Hi Greg,
Could you please give us a video recommending which remote id modules we could buy? I searched internet and I am not sure which one was better, and some of them are "so expensive"! September is coming and I hope we could have a nice remote id module before the date. Thank you very much.
We will do a review of modules as we get closer to the deadline. Probably mid summer.
Does Autel Nano Plus broadcast remote ID like the DJI Mini 3 Pro?
i'm korean, and i found out that my mavic3cine serial is compliant with the list of fat, but can not find the remote id functionality normal message, is there any setting to turn on the remote id ?
So the one thing that is missing is what model of remote ID to you recommend. I've searched the web and there is surprisingly little information regarding this - and your video has zero links to any. Please advise and greatly appreciated.
can the remote ID be modified, If we're flying in a different country- We're flying in Japan and after registering with their UA Registration website, they gave us a remote ID we need to program into our drone. but from all the research i've done it doesn't seem likely for us to add or modify the remote ID?
Greg, if you have a BVLOS waiver, have you made a range test of how far RID WiFi from DJI drones will reach? I can see the RID of my Air2S on my iPhone WiFi, but I can't see far enough to make a range test. Do we know how much WiFi output and on which frequencies the FAA required before issuing a DOC?
Find the highest area you can. Roof maybe? Secure the drone, remove the props, fire everything up, get in your car and drive. You'll know the range when you lose the RFI signal.
Isn't it interesting that there is only one company producing the remote id module ?
Will the dji mini 2 receive firmware updates that will make it rid compatible?
This would suggest that those of us with an original Mini or a Air 2 will need to attach a remote device to meet code? Also, I have been unable to update the Firmware on my Air2 controller. When I try to update it through the computer app (DJI Assistant 2) it tells me (Cannot load Firmware List. try again) Any thoughts? thanks glen
Had the same issue with updating the RC via computer. Did it thru the Fly App on phone, worked perfectly.
Greg, for drones that are not remote ID compliant and will require a module. do you need one module per drone? or can we use the module for multiple drones?
One module for any drone for recreational purposes. We are waiting to hear on guidance for the FAA but you will likely be able to do the same under part 107 but you may need to keep editing the serial numbers in the FAA drone zone.
Greg, please advise how you got the information on the DJI Smart Controller at 6:37. I have the original/old version and you state it's not compliant with RID. How can verify this? Is there an issue with the module not interfacing with the older Smart Controller? Please advise...I appreciate your help!
It has actually since been made compliant. Be sure to update to the latest firmaware and it should work.
AS AWAYS, very practical and excellent explanation. Thanks a lot sensei.
I am new to drones - I was going to buy a DJI Mini 2 but it is not RID compliant. By the time I add an RID module, the cost is pretty much the same as a Mini 3 Pro that already has RID built in. I'm guessing there will be a sale on Mini 2's coming soon. Thanks for the info, you saved me from making a bad choice and wasting a lot of money.
You don’t need it on the mini… it’s under the weight limit…
@@alanl3511 This is true if you dont use it for commercial purposes. If you use mini 2 as Part 107 they it is required.
@@hermanlamb9882 right but if you do not use it for commercial purposes and yet hold a part 107 certificate...would one still need to be RID compliant? DJI Mini 2 in reference specifically
I really hope DJI will release an update for the Mini 2 so that I don't have to use an external module. I've heard that there will be an update and have also heard that there will not be one for the Mini 2. With some attachments, mine is over 250g
lolololol you actually want to comply with this bs on a drone where you legally don't need to?
Greg - Logging into my Drone Zone account, I can see all my drones, but none of them have an "edit" next to them. Seen that?
Do you have to re-register each drone individually with an individual dedicated rmid unit and pay 5$ each or is one unit used for all my drones.thanks
it depends on the rid module but ideally you want to purchase the module that will allow you to use it on one or more drones. recreational flyers pay a one-time $5 for all drones and you can list the same rid module details on each drone that will fly with the module.
Hi, I'm confused. Shouldn't the RID be strictly the aircraft SN? I sometimes use different controllers for the same aircraft. If the RID SN is made up of both the aircraft and controller, each combination of different controller and the same aircraft will be different? Since I have some aircraft without native RID and will need a RID module, can I just use the single module on all of my aircraft irrespective if the aircraft has native RID? What is the issue if both the aircraft and module are transmitting RID at the same time? BTW, there isn't any way yet to edit the FAA drone registration entries for recreational pilots. Yeah, I'm a confused recreational pilot.
Careful there: flight Controller SN is not the Remote Controller. It's the Flight controller on board the aircraft.
For FAA DroneZone you say "Controller ID." Flight controller or remote controller? Flight controller ID is the same as the drone for DJI. However, my understanding is they want to know where your controller is. Can you confirm the flight controller ID is the correct one to register on FAA Drone Zone?
when i go on dronezone on the recreational side i can not edit my drone all it says is remove or details there is no way to edit my drone
so what am i suppose to do because i know that i have remote id on my drone remote id says normal on my controller so i dont know what to do?
anybody know what to do
I have a DJI Air 2S registered as a recreational flyer and I don't have the capability to edit it. Also the serial number I used when registering was the shorter one without the DJI prefix. Is there a way to change it, do I have to reregister it, or something else?
Same here. :(
Currently as a recreational flyer it does not allow me to edit my drone inventory. It only allows me to cancel and or show details. My guess is I will have to cancel the ones that have RID and re-enter them into the system with the compliant selections chosen.
This will be a feature that the FAA will eventually turn on. We let them know already that it’s not available and they are aware.
Just as others have posted here, "edit" is not available for me. Only "details" or "cancel". This is for a DJI Air 2S on the recreational side. It's been registered since 8-20-22. Is it possible that they're delaying the edit function for recreational for now?
Yes, I'm guessing that edit button is not available yet on the recreational side (it just became available recently on the 107 side). You can still do it as a new registration but I expect it will be available soon on the rec side.
What happens if you have an old DJI mavic 2 pro drone? the app won't let you fly?
This is from DJI
We are sorry to inform you that Mavic Air 2 cannot comply with the Remote ID rule by upgrading firmware currently. I'd love to give you a clear yes or no but it is not determined yet whether we will release RID-compliant firmware for Mavic Air 2. Thanks for your understanding.
You do not need to take any action until September 16, 2023. On and after that date, if you continue to use the drone, you will have to comply with the rule in either of the two ways described below:
Operate a drone with a Remote ID broadcast module giving the drone's identification, location, and take-off information. A broadcast module is a device that can be attached to a drone, or a feature (such as a software upgrade) integrated with the drone. Persons operating a drone with a Remote ID broadcast module must be able to see their drone at all times during flight.
2. Operate (without Remote ID equipment) at FAA-recognized identification areas (FRIAs) sponsored by community-based organizations or schools. FRIAs are the only locations unmanned aircraft (drones and radio-controlled airplanes) may operate without broadcasting Remote ID message elements.
If you decided to comply with rule by adding a Remote ID module to the drone, kindly be noted that the Remote ID module you purchase must be FAA-approved. Follow the Remote ID module instruction manual to properly install it on the drone. You also need to add Remote ID module information such as make, model, and serial number to the FAA drone registry.
Bummer
Hello,
Will I need to do anything with the original smart controller after setting up Remote ID on my Mavic pro 2?
Thank you kindly
@@JO-rq5sp I'm not sure but I would think not. If DJI doesn't do the update you'll have to buy the module and that should have to go through the drones remote.
@@EverythingWithEric How is it a bummer?
@@chrisb3976 I’m a part 107 and have a mavic air 2. To be “legal” I’ll need to upgrade. Unless I’m understanding this wrong
The key word to everything he is saying is COMPLIANCE . And that my friends is TOTAL control and drones are an extremely minuscule part in that .
Greg, thank you the great info. I checked my DJI Mini 3 Pro and it appears to be compliant for RID. When I checked the upper left and saw RID is normal, but didn’t appear to be orange like the other indicators as being on. I tried to select it, but nothing happened. Do you think DJI will launch an update to turn it on, or is it already transmitting?
It’s possible. Which page is that on? In the settings?
@@PilotInstitute in Greg’s video, at 5:56 he talks about this issue. It’s under Flight Checklist. Mine shows “Remote ID functionality normal (Code 1B080003)
Very informative. I have an Air2s which is compliant but the Flight Controller SN is not. How do I update the FCSN?
Thanks!
You should update your firmware on the drone.
@@PilotInstitute Greg, I should have mentioned that the drone indicates all firmware is updated and that I'm using the new RC with it. Thanks.
I have no option to edit my drone information on drone zone under the three ... Just says cancel or details.
I have 3 older drones (2 DJI and 1 Parrot) that do not have Standard Remote ID broadcasting capabilities. If I get one (1) Remote ID module, can I use this for all three drones (considering that I can only operate one at a time) and register the same module for all 3 drones that I have registered with the FAA?
If you fly under Part 107, you will technically need to attach the serial number to each aircraft in the dronezone before each flight, which is a pain.
If you fly recreationally, then you can do what you mentioned without additional changes each time in the DroneZone.
A question on the 250 g limit. Does this include the installed battery. My battery is 220 g all by itself
It includes the drone as flown. So your drone with the battery over 250g will require registration and remote id.
Any software is currently active to view flights in the same area you are flying? You folks talked about Drone Scanner a few months ago, however, my App does not appear to be functioning.
Drone Scanner might work, depends on what type of phone you have. Currently only works on android.
@@PilotInstitute I have the pixel 6. Not working
In the video he mentions during the Autel section that the Mini does not need to be RID compliant if flying for recreational purposes. Does also go for DJI Mavic Mini and Mini 2? I thought all drones had to be complaint by Sept. 2023. Why does the Mini Drones don't have to be compliant?
Drones flown under recreational purposes that are sub-250g don’t need remote ID.
Regarding updating your registration to indicate remote ID compliance, what about recreational fliers who have one registration number for all of their drones?
You will go in your inventory in the droneZone on the recreational side and add it there for each drones individually. Your registration won’t change and it should be free.
waiting for the "reviews" of remote ID modules!!!
All flying aircraft over 250 grams and not flying in a FRIA require Remote ID. Manufacturers were required as of September 2022 to INCLUDE built in Remote ID in aircraft for sale in the US. The FAA gave limited exemptions (their words) to certain manufacturers to comply by December 2022. Can anybody tell me if there has been one single airplane or helicopter sold in the last 7 months that comes with the REQUIRED built in Remote ID? I can't find any but if you can, please let me know.
I HAVE A DJI AIR 2 S.Followed the video instructions: updated my firmware; confirmed that my drone is RID compliant and is broadcasting remote ID; logged in to my account on the FAA site. I was unable to find out how to edit the only device in my inventory, my Air 2S.
Just upgraded to an DJI Air 2s, with remote ID, and was very disappointed to see your video about the original Smart Controller 😢. Started flying today using my phone and was so disappointed in the screen I decided to use my SC until September. HOWEVER, to my surprise, and pleasure, the correct ID number showed up on the “ABOUT” screen‼️‼️. Can I assume an update has made the original Smart Controller compatible with Remote ID❓
Haw do i find out where to install the R ID on my drone so it doesn't interfere with the drone gps
Greg, as a follow-up note: We tested one of our DJI drones today (Air2s) to determine whether or not Remote ID transmission is active within the aircraft (all firmware updates were installed).
The "Remote Functionality" message was not indicated on the DJI RC (as you denoted around the "6:30 mark" of your presentation). However, we did launch the Drone Scanner App (Android) and our aircraft was accurately identified instantly within the app. Thus, we are now confident the aircraft's RID is operating, "A-OK!"
I just wanted you to be aware that it appears the "Remote Functionality" message does not appear in all cases pertaining to RID transmission confirmation. (At least based on today's RID test.)
Be well, T ;-)
I can see my RID in WiFi networks on my iPhone. I wonder how far the signal travels.
Hi, I own an Air2s and ran into the same issue with 'Remote Functionality'. I tried to check with drone scanner and could not find the drone. I double checked my firmware updates and even confirmed I have the latest firmware for my drone and controller on DJI's website. Is there any reason you can think of that my drone is not showing on the scanner? Also could not see it in my WiFi networks like the other reply to this comment says. Thanks!
@@camgossett754 Which "scanner?" Are you referring to: Drone Scanner v1.5.2 Build 16? That's the app we use. Android. ;-)
@Tony Marino, MBA yep that's the one I was using but I got it figured out, turns out I didn't have the latest firmware. With the update I was able to see the RID functionality as seen in the video as well as see my drone on the drone scanner! Thanks for the quick reply.
DJI is indeed a mess. For my Air 2S with the latest updates, the Aircraft Flight Controller serial number is NOT the same as new RID serial number. The RID serial number conforms to the format you describe, 1581F . . . . To create the RID, SN. it looks like DJI took the original ID, put the 1581F in front and added a zero at the end.The Flight Controller SN remains the old serial number that the drone was manufactured with. Maybe newer manufactured drones have the same numbers for both functions.
What about DIY drones? I've built several heavy lift UAV's, can I use one module for all (like the FAA registration number) or do I need one for each. Thanks Greg!
Have you found the answer to this question yet?
@@Samshootsvids it appears that you can use one registered module for each sUAS but I'm not 💯% sure. If I find more certain answers I'll post it.
@@iamtuben2 Well, I don't think so for commerce flight as the broadcasting module will kee telling FAA every details of your drone. The key has to be unique.
In a previous video you stated Standard Remote ID was the only type that is approved for Part 107. It had to be manufactured with the Remote ID technology. That was a while back. Is that still the case or can I register for Part 107 a drone a FPV Drone I built myself and list a module as my compliant hardware? And if so can I list a bunch of my drones and just swap the module for part 107, or does each drone require it’s own module?
Let's put it this way, new drones manufactured after September 2022 (not 2023) must be compliant with remote ID, so yes, in this case, new drones should all comply with "internal" remote ID and not module RID. The trick is this: the FAA said that if the drone is build for recreational purposes, it can use a module, but if it's built for part 107, it needs to be "standard" RID. The FAA has since said that they are working on clarifying that rule because that was not the intent.
So until the FAA comes up with clarification, you technically would need to make your homebuilt drone RID compliant internally. Technically...
Just to clarify the question, isn't it true that RID broadcast modules are legal for end users on pre-Standard RID craft (though not for manufacturers after 12/16/2022) , under Part 107, provided it is used only VLOS (and also that BVLOS will be promulgated as an entirely different subsection?)
@@PilotInstitute I would like to see a build video on how to accomplish that and get it registered legally 100% for Part 107 work. Please include all of the red tape and expense involved. As in making the serial number for my home built drone show up in that list on the FAA web site. How do I get this serial number? I don’t recall a serial number on any of my FPV flight controllers. And definitely not one that would pass the smell test with the FAA. They also have a tendency to break or get bricked and need to be replaced. I keep telling people the Avata, realistically, is the only option right now, but they keep insisting that all you have to do is slap a module on your freaking home made Nazgûl 5 and the FAA will issue you a “go-pass” to fly it commercially. I just find that impossible to believe for part 107 registration.
@@ivaneberle3972 dude I do not know these answers. I am asking. I am totally asking for clarification as to whether my interpretation of the regulation is correct and also find out if something has changed that I am unaware of.
If it were up to me all I should have to show them is a part 107 and my AARP card and I should get a free pass to fly anything I want. 😁😆😄. It took me a long time to come to that conclusion. 🥳. I went through hell to make it 50 in St Louis Mo! I want diplomatic immunity!
Unfortunately the government has to get involved to complicate and inflate the cost of my favorite thing to do I life and that’s flying drones. And riding motorcycles, but believe it or not it’s a hell of a lot easier to get a license to drive a $600-800 pound motorcycle than it is to legally fly a 251 gram drone to film a back yard wedding.
