How to update your Remote ID registration on the FAA DroneZone

[@jakelipsiner9017]

I downloaded the remote id update for my Phantom 4 pro V2.0 and Phantom 4 Pro but I don't know how to update the remote id serial number on faadronezone.

[@TB-sv3nw]

You missed the click on the Part 107 "Remote ID Broadcast Module" part...but I got it anyway. Thanks for the video, it helped.

[@photographyprescottazander3090]

At 4:15 on the video you say that the remote ID Module serial number once changed on Drone Zone's manage device page will update via firmware...what firmware are you talking about? Additionally if you are adding a remote RID to FAA Drone for Commercial 107 for a drone that does not transmit like the DJI Mini 4 Pro with the lite weight batteries...why are you not picking Broadcast RID module instead of keeping it Standard Remote ID?

[@robertt65250]

where do i find the rid number on my dji mini 3 pro ? i use the larger batteries and have looked every where.

[@frankc.9853]

The only drones that are processed as shown are the ones that have a 15 digit SN. It's not updating my Air 2s or Mavic 2 Pro as stated in your video.

[@MarcoAntonio_72]

I'm flying rec and I don't see the edit option on my registration, do I just add it again and cancel the original one?

[@tonyabdalla]

I had the same issue. I just canceled my original registration and added another device with the same serial number as the original and updated the Remote ID status (Standard Remote ID for my DJI Mini 3 Pro).

[@TheRoamingWookie]

So which number do i put in for the registration? I have a flight controller s/n and a remote controller s/n or is it a different number all together. It is a DJI Air 3 and it has the FAA cert that you showed on their website.

[@INTELMAXELL]

Do we have to put a RID module on the AIR 3 since it's still not on the list? ....Or are we protected by the new RID deadline of March 16....maybe by then the FAA will figure it out?!?!

[@PilotInstitute]

I’m surprised it’s still not approved but you are good to go due to the delay.

[@TheTphill3]

On my Part 107 dashboard, I edit the existing drone that does not broadcast RID, click Yes at the top and select module RID in the drop down then type in the module serial # and click Save. It doesn't charge the $5 registration.

[@PilotInstitute]

It’s free right now until December.

[@edycafe]

Thanks for the video. Just to confirm, the Serial Number of compliances drones is provided by the FAA, right?

[@MikeSalTV]

For the RID serial number, are we providing the drone's serial number? Or is there a new seeial number found inside the drone after firmware update?

[@steveday2022]

I think it's the drone's S/N for built-in ones, but perhaps PI could confirm? I looked on my M3P and Avata, just used their S/Ns...

[@lorde_2046]

@@steveday2022 On here looking for an answer on this as it's not mentioned where the RID number comes from for those drones that will have RID installed via firmware in the future. When the update releases for RID, where will I find the RID number? @Pilot Institute

[@WanderingVillage]

I am also trying to figure out which number to put in for my Air2s. Is it the serial # or the 20 digit number where it says "Remote ID SN"?

[@WanderingVillage]

FAA Dronezone did accept that 20 digit number.

[@steveday2022]

per DJI, they confirmed the serial # is the same as the RID for built-in models.@@lorde_2046

[@ariker011]

I have no edit option under actions in my inventory. Just Cancel or Details. I am trying to edit my drone information to update that it is compliant with remote ID.

[@PilotInstitute]

Unfortunately you’ll have to cancel and re-add.

[@jibester1]

Once you become recreationally remote ID compliant, do you need to cancel and reregister the drone or just add the remote ID device in the FAA drone zone? I hear conflicting views on this.

[@PilotInstitute]

Recreationally, you register once, get a registration number, and use that on all your drones flown recreationally. You need to add all your recreational drones in the listing on the DroneZone, including the RID modules that you are using recreationally. So if you listed a drone before in your drone list and it didn't have RID and now it does, simply delete it and add it again with the correct info. You can't edit the list unfortunately.

[@jibester1]

Thank you very much!

[@BayAreaDrone]

0:50 FAA's website should be updated so that it's clear it's a module instead of a drone. It still says "DOES YOUR DRONE BROADCAST FAA REMOTE ID INFORMATION?" instead of "Is this a drone or a Remote ID module"...

[@rcjctwoinone]

I registered my DJI mini 4 pro remote ID on the FAA drone zone- I am using the RC2 controller - should my drone be recognized on the LAANC app when I try to get authorization to fly? I use my iPhone to connect to LAANC for authorization but without any success in finding my drone or controller in the LAANC app

[@danman32]

You showed Mavic 2 Pro under 107 as an example. How did you manage that since DJI hasn't updated it yet to be RID compliant?

[@PilotInstitute]

We mention in the video that it's not compliant yet but will be in December.

[@DG-Chiefs-fan]

Great video I have my db120 but didn’t have it added to my FAA profile as an added device, I don’t like it but as a part 107 we have to comply strange how we have more training but it seems like we get punished and have to buy one for each drone, that should be reversed 😡

[@glenbates9460]

When will the FAA update the list of S# for the DJI Air2 for the Remote ID ?

[@TheWingnut58]

If someone is just reentering the RC hobby, and has a remote ID unit on order, how would they go about registration? Can they even register without the ID unit "in hand"? Are they allowed to fly in the meantime?

[@badwolf01]

Anyone else not have an Edit option in the inventory? I only see Cancel and Details.

[@PilotInstitute]

Can you send us screenshots at [e-mail]

[@badwolf01]

@@PilotInstitute I sent an email with a screen clip as requested.

[@aaronialvarez]

@@PilotInstitute same here, I can only see Cancel and Details for my previously registered Mini 3 Pro. Do I need to re-register it instead?

[@RonaldBrown59]

Great information on getting your drones updated for Remote ID. Thanks for sharing.

[@MrBobaFett]

How do you get that edit option. Mine only offers "Cancel" and "Details"

[@PilotInstitute]

You'll need to "cancel" as a recreational pilot and then add the aircraft again.

[@leroy071265]

I have the Mavic air 2 I downloaded The latest firmware for the remote I’d no, how do I go on the faa site to register it the remote id

[@MocapLatte]

should the Spektrum sky remote id registered as standard remote id vs remote id broadcast model ?

[@PilotInstitute]

It’s a module so it should be registered as a module. Only drones with RID internal are considered standard RID.

[@tjcampbell811]

I downloaded the remote id update for my Phantom 4 pro V2.0 and then went to the FAA Dronezone and got the serial number for it from the document that showed it approved for Remote ID, but it provided two serial numbers, so which serial number do I put in when I update my Part 107 registration for it? I put in the first one - is that good since it doesn't accept them both?

[@PilotInstitute]

What are the names of the serial numbers? Is there a controller serial number? If so, that’s the one.

[@JakeRogue]

I can't edit my existing drones which is weird.

[@anonymussy123]

Same, did you ever figure out something?

[@JakeRogue]

@@anonymussy123 I had to delete and re enter the drone 🤷‍♂️

[@SnoqualmieHeights]

Why is the Air 3s not showing in the Declaration of Compliance?

My guess is that the FAA hasn't approved it yet.

[@jcvdo8455]

hello everyone, in this case on the registration topic. Before I passed the initial exam and I already registered my DJI Spark on Recreational, now I passed the initial exam and I want to continue using my DJI Spark under Part 107. Need to remove DJI Spark from recreational list and register my DJI Spark under Part 107 and pay $5 and just add the RID module serial number in DJI Spark using Edit? is this correct? Or can keep DJI Spark in Recreational and Part 107 paying $5 in Part 107 and just add RID module serial number using 3 dots and Edit? On the Edit of the DJI Spark, I will select RID Module and add the RID module serial number? I need to remove it from recreational or can I keep it on both side the registration of the drone? I'm confused on this part. Thanks!

[@itsjcfpv]

For Part 107, do I need 1 Remote ID module for each drone or 1 Remote ID I can use with multiple Drones?

[@riggerss4]

He never did address the issue. lame video

[@Stirling_RC_Videos]

I have my Part 107 and I fly one drone as that. I have other drones that I will share a broadcast and only fly Rec with them. Is that something that will work now that I have the 107 or will I need to have a module for each of the other drones?

[@TB-sv3nw]

Sorry, but since YOU are a Part 107 certificated Remote Pilot, You will need to buy separate modules for each drone registered under your name/dashboard.

[@Stirling_RC_Videos]

@@TB-sv3nw so checking with Greg at Pilot Institute, he said you can fly rec. Just because you are a Part 107 doesn't mean you have to fly 107, unless your UAS is registered as a Part 107. Since I have UAVs as rec, they can fly as rec.

[@marcoleon8770]

and where we can get one of those module for remote ID?

[@frankc.9853]

When I follow your steps for my Mavic 2 Pro and Air 2s, I get an error message "Invalid Serial Number." Any updates or suggestions?

[@DoloresLowe]

They are looking for the number under the little QR code, it should start with 1581. In my mavic 3, it was on a sticker inside the battery case, not printed where all the other information is. If you were trying to input the FCC ID, that's not what they are looking for. I made this mistake too...

[@frankc.9853]

Thanks, I found another video that shows the format. The earlier drones like the Mavic 2 Pro and the Air 2s don't begin with the (1581F) so I had to add that at the beginning of the serial number and add a zero at the end. I don't understand why the FAA doesn't include that on the site but...@@DoloresLowe

[@whitstoddard5572]

My concern is when I go to set up my account on Drop Zone for my first drone a DJI Air 3 the government wants me to agree they have the right to look at about anything on my network, computer, cloud, media, files. Etc. I’m reading this correctly ? Maybe I should return my Air 3 and get a mini 4 pro. Thoughts ?

[@PilotInstitute]

Where did you see that note? That’s very unlikely.

[@whitstoddard5572]

[@hybrydsanity5857]

where do you find the serial # for the drones that have Remote ID built in ?

[@PilotInstitute]

In the “about” section typically, where it shows the serial Numbers.

[@frankc.9853]

Even the Declaration page isn't working as advertised. Can't find the Mini 4 Pro or Mavic 3 Pro. Smh

[@braddevendorf9901]

Nice video; thanks. Would have been helpful to indicate how to meet the below FAA RID labeling requirements. I have searched almost every where to find out how to do it or an example and nothing. Even your organization is silent on this. Even when you had a FAA representative a podcast it was glossed over. The manufacturer is supposed to put the label on it saying it meets the RID requirement or reference the ASTM standard. My DJI Air2S does not have that information on my drone label. DJI states to contact customer support on what to do. That is a black hole of bureaucracy. Why is it so hard to get any conclusion here? Thanks for any help in this matter. § 89.525 Labeling. (a) No person may produce a standard remote identification unmanned aircraft under § 89.515 unless it displays a label indicating that the unmanned aircraft meets the requirements of this part. The label must be in English and be legible, prominent, and permanently affixed to the unmanned aircraft. (b) No person may produce a remote identification broadcast module under § 89.520 unless it displays a label indicating that the equipment meets the requirements of this part. The label must be in English and be legible, prominent, and permanently affixed to the broadcast module.

[@PilotInstitute]

The bottom line on this, it’s a manufacturer requirement, not a pilot requirement. If the manufacturer fails to put the sticker on it, it’s technically not your problem. With that said, we send RID labels with all our free registration stickers.

[@braddevendorf9901]

@@PilotInstituteThanks for the reply and reminder that you also send the RID labels too.

[@gregpate4554]

I just got email confirmation from the FAA this morning 9-14-23, in reference to the new DJI Air3. This is their response. FAA- The DJI Air 3 DOES NOT have an FAA-approved Declaration of Compliance for remote ID. Greg can you get to the bottom of this for us. Thanks in advance.

[@PilotInstitute]

It is likely submitted to the FAA for approval and they are waiting on approval.

[@davidcooper2951]

absolutely asinine that it costs $5 for a 107 registered aircraft to change RID info . . . $0 cost for hobby registered (same registration database, same system to change the info). Our government FORCING additional costs to be in business . . . for what benefit? In turn, forcing non-compliance . . . and these (most likely) are legacy aircraft -- makes no sense FAA/DOT !

[@PilotInstitute]

It’s free right now until the end of December.

[@davidcooper2951]

yeah, I heard . . . that is even more proof that its asinine. How is it free now, but in a few months there is suddenly some bill that the government needs to pay by turning over cost to the user. Imagine, IF the FAA required a fee to change the call sign (not N#) ?!?

[@PilotInstitute]

@@davidcooper2951 The logic is that after December, you won't be adding any more modules to existing drones because the deadline will have past. So if you stay within the confines of the current mandate, you get all your currently registered drones updated by that deadline, then it's free. After that, if you get a new drone, it would be the same process as before, $5 for each registration.

[@davidcooper2951]

thx . . you are missing the point. WHY should a 107 have to pay $5 for a (mandated) RID number move (you already paid $5 for registration of EACH aircraft) when a hobbyists can make the change at no charge (they only pay $5 for ALL aircraft). As for "after December" that shouldn't matter --- in my simpleton's eyes the RID module should be able to be moved at NO charge -- the GOAL is for RID to be used, correct? This approach is just another reason to be ROGUE. Lets be real, MOST drones will be RID compatible, so we're only talking about legacy aircraft . . . heck for that matter they could have just exempted legacy drone (not build in) like they did ADS-B and even mode C in some cases for older crewed aircraft.. For those of us with legacy birds its just another MANDATED $2-300 charge that benefits us NONE. OR pay $5 per move. We probably just wont agree, but this is just another example of bad staff work when the concept came up.

[@PilotInstitute]

@@davidcooper2951 Yes, the RID module should be able to be moved between drones at no cost. I 100% agree!! The problem is that rule makers have never flown a drone, let alone seen one. And most people in FAA ruling committee that supposedly represent the industry have also never flown a drone under part 107...
