My take on the Remote ID nonsense. Just say NO.

[@crystalclearwindowcleaning3458]

You're right, it's a tracking device to track and restrict law abiding hobbyists. The ultimate goal is the elimination of recreational pilots, clearing the sky's for corporate commercial UAV's.

[@bigdatapimp]

Great video.Well said. Most cops will not want to be bothered, but there are already those that have a big hard on for "busting" drones. Drone pilots will absolutely get arrested more that anyone seems to think.

[@droningwesternaustralia]

well said. this system wont protect anyone, especially the operator

[@lsteevo1009]

Just say no! Remote ID

[@lucoha]

Gracias por tus comentarios. Tienes razón en tu análisis. Saludos desde Puerto Rico!

[@rc-fannl7364]

Your language is fine, your message was totally clear. This Remote ID won't solve anything, just adds a bunch of problems for a hobby that has one of the best safety records in history.

[@andiprogshop3097]

Remote ID will bring safety just like making crime illegal stops crime

[@mrlintonious]

If they feel that they have to enforce it, then they need to just set the limit to 1Kg, and we fly and stay below 400m, and then no Remote ID, above 1Kg, perhaps yes, as those are quite large?

[@SAFEZONEFPV]

I feel that the FAA will be more concerned about enforcing RID for those with Part 107 licenses or influencers who post their flights. In my opinion that would be much easier for the FAA to catch someone not complying and try to make an example out of them. Someone went off on me on another comment because, supposedly we have a group like the NRA called the FPV Freedom whatever. The thing is, If this group was anything like the NRA, RID would be much, much different and probably about safety. love your video, keep them coming, Sir.

[@happyfox711]

They should make rules for killer drones, not the recreative ones. For the safety of the world. The whole thing is a diversion

[@MrRobertSpearsJr]

The only thing this law will do, is add an additional charge to someone who gets arrested for something else. Much like the FCC, no cops or agents are running around badges in hand.

[@wearemany73]

Many people in the hobby are going along with RID and it’s the most frustrating thing about this issue. It’s easier to fool someone that to convince someone that they’re capable of being fooled. RID has nothing to do with safety and never has. Great video raising some keys points. 👍

[@DanyTomaslife]

If you look at the history of humanity, the vast majority of the people always supported the atrocities and the nonsense, so if you look at this from that point of view, the amount of people not following the government spell is pretty promising nowadays. A lot of people started looking at the government for what it really is.

[@wearemany73]

@@DanyTomaslife Absolutely right Dany, The advent of electric global comms (internet) ushered in a whole bunch of great things. Generally speaking the democratising of information is liberating unless that information is designed to misinform. When it comes to those claiming to be “purveyors of truth” they are often in the business of misinforming for the sake of their own ideological gain. I have a lot of faith in the abilities of the general population to debunk misinformation. I also have a lot of sympathy for young people figuring this stuff out, it’s much harder in these crazy times. I expect the deep-faking of influential people to make it even harder too. 😎🌎🤷‍♂️🇬🇧

[@PoochAndBoo]

They want to be able to monitor every aspect of your life. There are already cameras EVERYWHERE! Where you go on the internet is being watched. They know where you are because of your cell phone. It's about control, not safety.

Thank you. I'm not going to comply because I DON'T WANT TO GET ROBBED for my FPV gear by someone that tracked my location! I fly alone mostly in remote areas with about $2000 worth of equipment. No Thank You .

[@extremeboatdockingmedia]

You’re already flying illegally flying solo so not much will change. But I doubt someone’s gonna track you down for a discontinued phantom 4. Just get a concealed carry Are you worried people are going to track you down now when they hear your drone and follow it to where you land?

[@wtb567]

Yeah good point. Bad actors will definetely not use RID. Its like telling a buglar they have to out a tracking device on their car so police can monitor where they commit their crimes and to make easier to catch them. How stupid is the FAA to really think this will ever make out skies safer. This is just an unfair punishment of a bunch of hobbyists. I will not be surpised ro hear they have shares in the companies that manufacture RID devices.

[@hairyhider7478]

What terrorist is gonna build a drone with A-bomb and then go? Oh d*** I gotta put a remote I d module on this

[@Carboneye7]

The local police force in my area is so downsized that they offer no protection for the common citizen. You are on your own to protect yourself and your property. at this rate they stand absolutely no chance at finding a rouge operator in a hurry.

[@sUASNews]

Tracker device for certain, the implications of safety and security for the operator just seems to have been ignored.

[@photony]

I wonder if we can file a FOIA to find out which congresspersons are connected financially to Amazon, et al?

[@hirc2007]

You speak very well for English not being your primary language. You brought up a good point about geofencing and about thieves. I usually fly my airplanes and helicopters by myself...now after thinking about the amount of money just sitting there while I'm concentrating on flying or not crashing (i.e. my back is towards my things)...someone could just walk off with my stuff. And even if I lock them in the car, thieves have been breaking car windows to steal people's cameras/phones....maybe I will resort to computer simulators....

[@MrJarrod]

CASA in Australia is now following the same playbook as the FAA. When has a license plate ever stopped a crime.

[@rsutherland106]

[@SOLARFPV]

Yeah no way man. It is tracking for your kids toys.

[@heeder777]

Does anyone believe that a person(s) planning on doing an act of terrorism or some other illegal activity with a drone is going to equip it with remote ID? If you really believe that then you are living in a fantasy land. It's the same with gun control. The laws so not apply to people intent on using a firearm for nefarious purposes, they are only used against law abiding citizens. Canada is even more delirious; they are requiring control line models to have this technology. It's about control of the airspace. They hope these "rules" will discourage many people to just drop the hobby all together. It's already cost prohibited for your average casual hobbyist.

[@boarattackboar]

[@followthewhiterabbit7504]

[@shogunscorner2774]

The way they are looking to enforce RID is by having every day citizens that hate drones to take private justice into their own hands. This is what the FAA is hoping will happen.

[@justplanefred]

I think it’s more of Congress and not the FAA. The FAA has their hands full with manned aviation.

[@FPVisnotacrime]

A car has got a license plate, right, but the gov' does not keep records of all the drives you make in it. No to RID

[@rc-fannl7364]

Yeah, totally not the same. Your license plate also doesn't tell any potential burglars that you are not at home, so they can come break into your house. A license plate is LoS only, the public can't track your car. Class G airspace should be free for rc planes, as manned aviation should stay above it

[@fastdude2002]

[@bladesfpv4179]

They are not considering the danger of putting pilots location out to the public. We know they will be incidents between the public and pilots. I agree with another point I heard. We need to call and report to the faa every time we are approached by a Karen. Lol

[@mick_6006]

Excellent thank you! RID is simply reckless legislation, they have to be held responsible, legally and financially, for the consequences. Then see how keen they are to continue.

There is much to be learned about the UAV community by the government. These are the early days and they are stumbling along. There are many arguments being made in these protest videos that are valid and need to be considered. Hopefully the laws can be fine-tuned to make practical sense (and to protect the UAV pilots!) before they kill the community with these overbearing rules.

I think the delivery drones will do the reporting. All the technology exists for an autonomous drone to detect other aircraft, their approximate size, gps location, and remote ID.

[@slapdat.byteme]

… which is why my drones will not have RID modules or FAA registration stickers. Essentially, I’ll be flying “ghost drones”. 😎

[@spartan3299]

Clear thoughts Sir!...Let us all keep the main ideas concise. Keep thinking and adding to the reason why RID is not the right solution. Keep flying safely. Remind everyone that the model aviation community produces and possesses the Best safety record in all of aviation for as long as aviation has been a thing , Yeah before there was an FAA, all without Remote ID. Remote ID is the wrong solution for a problem that doesn't even exist in model flying!

[@mac9375]

1) Half the pilots flying "commercially" don't have 107....and there is no enforcement. This will be no different. 2) Want to see who is pushing RID (same group pushing Blue List) .... follow the money.

It sucks that you potentially have to sell your drones or leave the country to fly. This is not the way to fix problems. They have not done their research.

[@markas11]

Your car has a license plate but nobody can track it with the smartphone..... wait for it!

[@ghettogardens1]

No one has a right, especially a government agency, whether in public or not, to force a citizen to wave their constitutionally protected rights (4th, 5th, 6th Amendments) and submit to, without probable cause and/ or a 4th Amendment warrant, government tracking, surveillance, and control of a citizens private movements while enjoying a hobby, all while collecting and recording evidence that can, and will be used against a citizen in any FAA prosecution against them. It doesn’t get more unconstitutional than that!

[@ceiverfpv591]

Agreed. Xjet Sent me

[@flyingweed9671]

This system is so full of holes and relies on honesty. What happens if you buy a RID module then register it in someone else's name? How effective is RID if an aerial attenuator is fitted to reduce the broadcast range? What happens if the GPS recieve aerial is blinded with tin foil? Who is going to check? Think about all the issues we have had in the past with vehicle registration (plates), then apply them here.

[@kingkieck]

What's up? New here but I dropped a sub and wanna say thank you for speaking out.

[@Siamect]

Most cops want to make as many arrests as possible because it is good for their careers. If you fly with remote id the cops will immediately arrest you. The way that the regulations are written you cannot fly anything with violating them. So don't fly with remote id.

[@MyFlyingEyes]

I agree rules are confusing and there is always some sort of local rule that would forbid you to fly anywhere. This rule is for collecting fines.

[@mutantthegreat7963]

I get the impression that nobody is in favour of this. Understandably so. People just want to be left alone.

[@SoloRenegade]

tracking devices are not legal on anything else. if you put a tracker on someone's car, you'd get arrested.

[@jeremykline6509]

Remote id makes many people unsafe! Remote ID only proves that your being tracked and your aircraft is being tracked every time you fly! Also the data recorded and saved. REMOTE ID does not prove the pilot or flight is nefarious or not. It only proves the person is compiling with the regulation. Who knows this could even be a stolen/lost transponder as well someone is using to mislead authorities.

[@gchSeattle]

Thanks Danny!

[@klestor]

I think they'll catch you retrospectively after your flights have been uploaded to big brother

[@OzFPVflyer]

I dont agree with Remote ID but I will say this... I hope those who say they will not comply also post videos of their fines they WILL receive if caught and found guilty. You do know they will make an example of those non compliers. They want the airspace monitored and they will use all tools at their disposal.

I feel like remote pilots have went out of their way to follow the rules. Many of us got licensed and educated, didn't fly over people etc but that still wasn't enough. They just want private small UAV's grounded period so Amazon can endanger the public with their heavy lifting UAV's.
