Understanding the FAA Requirement

Understanding the FAA Requirement

The FAA’s final rule on Remote ID stipulates that as of September 16, 2023, all drone pilots must meet the operating requirements of part 89. For most operators, this means flying a drone equipped with Standard Remote ID, equipped with a broadcast module such as pingRID, or flying at a Federally Recognized Identification Area (FRIA).

3 Ways to Comply

Standard Remote ID

Standard Remote ID will be built into consumer and box-ready drones.

  • Drone ID
  • Drone location and altitude
  • Drone velocity
  • Control station location and elevation
  • Time mark
  • Emergency status

Broadcast Module

Broadcast modules add Remote ID capability to any aircraft by attaching a device such as pingRID.

  • Drone ID
  • Drone location and altitude
  • Drone velocity
  • Takeoff location and elevation
  • Time mark
  • Emergency status

No Remote ID

FRIA

FAA-Recognized Identification Area

These are community-based designated areas registered with the FAA where any drone can fly without Remote ID.
