    Remote ID Requirements starting Sept 2023

    What no one is addressing is the wanton idiocy of a 'Module per Drone', every drone must have it's own module registered to ONLY that drone! I can only fly one drone at a time, the point of RID is to identify a drone to it's owner so why can't one RID module be used on each 'flying' drone...

    Terrain Follow SRTM, why not?!

    While using my Autel Lite+ the Ultrasound sensor give an accurate reading, to bad they consider the Lite and Nano as not worthy their waypoint & SDK software, seems you have to spend $2500 or more to be privileged by them, marketing, got to hate them.

    Can the FAA mail a ticket to a drone pilot if not caught on the spot by local law enforcement?

    I removed all my Youtube video, not going to explain what appears to be a 4,000 foot AGL view when flying on the top of a mountain looking over a valley, or a run up a stream which is beyond 4,000 (VLS) without showing the spotters posted along the route. It would be a good thing if someone...

    RID response from Autel:

    On June 28th this was listed at : UAS Declaration of Compliance Autel Robotics Model: EVO Nano FCC Identifier: 2AGNTMDA2409A I can live with that rather than the over-heating DJI Mini 3

    Done With Autel

    @BlairAir Were you flying with the stock Nano/Lite/Lite+ controller and your phone (Apple or Android)? I agree, the stock RC controllers battery doesn't last long.

    Done With Autel

    I was looking at the Nano to replace my DJI Mini 2 since I fly part 107 I'll need RID but Autel will not support RID on the Nano, they updated my Lite+ to support RID so for that I'm grateful. I still may get the Nano+ and add one of my Dronetag BS modules, the Autel Nano+ can handle the heat, I...

    Remote ID and the Nano(+)

    If you add a module to most sub-250g drones it will make it a Part 107 drone since: 249g+16g = 265g FAA OOP (Operations over people) is nuts, if I add my prop protectors to my Mavic mini 2 to enable me to fly over people it moves the drone out of category 1 since the drone now weighs more than...

    Remote ID and the Nano(+)

    Where is the Evo Lite remote ID serial number?

    "Maybe much longer in more rural areas." Why? I already have to drive 6 hours to take the 'test' for part 107 thanks to the FAA big brother network.

    Remote ID and the Nano(+)

    "I'm unaware of the plans for manufacturers to develop anything." Anything built must be 'certified' by the FCC then the FAA, you're talking about deep pockets and a year at the least. "250 solution" At $1,500 a violation because the FAA interpreted a flight as NOT Recreational would you...

    Remote ID and the Nano(+)

    In the US, if your drone weighs less than 0.55 lb (250 g), registration is not required. This also means that your drone doesn't need a remote ID (RID). If you fly anything the FCC wants control. The "NEW" AC 91-57C explains Community Based Organizations (CBO) for Recreational Flyers but the...

    Remote ID and the Nano(+)

    I just updated my EVO Lite + and have working Remote ID, I checked the FAA website and found the Lite + listed but I could not find the Autel Nano + listed.

    Waypoints

    While getting my EVO Lite+ ready for spring flying, firmware and app updates, I didn't see any 'waypoints' in the latest android app 1.4.54 - I can only hope they have finally fixed the gimbal issues...

    New EVO Lite+ - Autel Sky won't connect to Samsung phone

    No issues with Galaxy Note 8, Note 10+, Tablet S4, Tripltek 8" - when the RC is plugged in and turned on the app starts and connects. I always put what ever into airplane mode before flying.

    Help I phone pro max 13 dimming when using Auto sky app

    Bite the bullet and get the 8" Tripltek with LifThor Mjolnir Combo Tablet Holder for Autel Nano and Lite. I tried four different mounts and found the LifThor was the only one I trusted, rock solid. I almost returned the Tripltek, from the manufacture they load the 'kitchen-sink' and the flight...
