Remote ID History and Next Steps
In this video I will go over the remote ID history and next steps with this program.
Remote ID is a very emotional subject with radio control pilots, whether fixed wing or drone. For the first time, RC pilots will be directly covered by an important FAA regulation. Until now the closest we got to FAA oversight was a 1981 Advisory Circular on Model Aircraft Safety Standards.
Remote ID will come into effect on Sept 16, 2023. Drone manufacturers are by and large compliant. FAA Recognized Identification Areas (FRIAs) are being approved. The one big delay is the remote ID module, of which there are essentially no affordable versions.
The item driving remote ID is the goal of the commercial Unmanned Aircraft System operators for full integration with manned aircraft. As drones cannot see and avoid, this will require technology. Thus remote ID is the first step to integrated operations.
At the end I offer some thoughts and conclusions on next steps for remote ID and FAA enforcement.
