Wait! Before we get into this, remember, you only need a module if you drone ISN’T currently remote ID compliant. Where do you check? uasdoc.faa.gov/listDocs and filter by RID. This will tell you if you drone is complaint with RID. If it is listed here, you don’t need one of these modules unless you have other older drones. All of the modules we’re about to discuss are FAA approved at this time.
For recreational operators… You only need ONE module. This will work for all of your recreationally registered drones. You can swap in between flights to ensure both your Mavic Pro and your foam park flyer are compliant.
For Part 107, You need a module for EVERY drone that isn’t currently compliant… Each module will need to be registered to the aircraft’s registration number in the FAA DroneZone.
Alright, let’s get to it starting with approved stand along broadcast modules. These have internal batteries, can be turned on and off via a button or switch, and would be most useful to those who don’t want to wire anything up, or have an older DJI or Autel drone. We’ll be looking at how long the module runs for, how much it weighs, the overall size of the module, the range and the cost. For our tests, no settings were changed.
Alright, that wraps up stand alone modules. Next up, we’re going to cover the available add-ons. These are modules that require power to operate, but contain everything else (GPS, broadcast system, etc) needed to be compliant. This is best for the folks who are flying foamies or FPV and just want to plug in the device to comply.
