3, 2, 1—Done! Remote ID Rule is Final
Four days before the new year, after 53,000 public comments on the draft rule and almost one year after the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) launch, the wai

I made it to page 23 B4 I glazed over!!!!
looks like the tax paying public will pay $200MILLION to implement??
Can i swap the "I'm here box" to whichever sUAS since i'm recreational?
also missed the official, "you're now a felon" start date?

[INSERT DATE 60 DAYS AND 30 MONTHS AFTER DATE OF PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER].
In the mid/late 2023. We have a ways to go yet.
So,
As far as I can tell we will have to go for "Retraining for night flights" if we already have the waiver 60 days after it is finalized.
What is going on with flight over people?
Lastly, and probably most important to me because the rest does not mean anything is... does the EVO 1 have RID capabilities built into it, or am i going to have to purchase a RID identifier to mount to it? Would hate to have to purchase another drone at this point. Especially with all the problems I am reading about with the EVO2 Platform!

It is plainly obvious that no matter what signals my Evo-1 does or does not broadcast, I will either break the law by flying according to common sense or draw the unwanted attention of every nearby self-appointed security guard, drone vigilante, and thief by broadcasting my exact base-station position and pilot ID info.
I could avoid unwanted attention by flying in the middle of nowhere -- but I don't live anywhere close to the middle of nowhere. And the FAA's equivalent of RF-ID-free 'dog-walking parks' is no solution.
I thought about switching to a sub-250-gram drone (no transponder required). But a smaller drone overhead without an RF ID will look far more nefarious to paranoid minds than a drone with an RF ID -- and to avoid the wrong end of a baseball bat or gun barrel, I've instead decided to end my drone-flying hobby sometime before the new rules take effect ...perhaps by selling my Evo-1 ...but more likely flying it full-throttle in ludicrous mode, cancelling all RTH modes, and waiting until its video and control signals drop out for good when it crashes into the Atlantic Ocean.

You have o love the way Bruce throws info out for you to think about. Sometimes hard to listen to but he does have his points. 
Great question. There are already many companies out there that specialize in observing/tracking/jamming drones. There's plenty of time yet for all the alphabet agencies to start rolling out receivers to themselves and to LEO before the rules go into effect. My guess is you'll be seeing the receivers in and around stadiums, huge public events, slapped next to or integrated into 5G "towers", added into passenger planes.. Just to name a few that I can think of.
Now if you're out flying in the middle of nowhere Montana, there's probably not going to be many receivers.
unfortunately flying a drone is no different than any other outdoor activity and you have to be prepared for confrontation whether it's a criminal or a friendly. I don't plan to give up the hobby as I am well prepared to deal with the upcoming issues. but I agree with you, interesting times are coming.

He's easy enough to understand. He's got good points. A good one is that if you start indoors without gps lock and then go outside, per the rules, the drone is no longer broadcasting the takeoff signal. Per the rules, I read through them, the addon transmitters have to broadcast the drones takeoff coordinates. Built in transmitters, ones that will be integrated by manufacturers, have to broadcast the pilot/control station coordinates.
All messed up stuff really but in a few years time, drones sold second hand could be worth more than what they were initially bought for.

The video was great, answered all my ??'s, guilty, even if you can prove innocents
adding complexity to any system just increases the fail rate. you can tell the AC is acting up, but an addon black box? do I have continually monitor it while monitoring the AC, do I get a TXT alert, dummy, your black box just bricked?? and I still can't get past the price tag for the tax payers

the price will only increase (by a little) if drone flyers place any value on full compliance and I'm betting they won't. unless there is an official list of "exempt" drones by the time these rules go into full effect years from now, this will all become old news. from what I have been reading and hearing "so far" this is a nothing burger. just slap a $25 rid device on your drone and go about your day.

May cut down on some of the confusion I'm seeing in various discussions.

FAA Adopts Final Rules for UAS Remote ID, Flights over People, and at Night
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) released long-awaited final rules yesterday governing unmanned aircraft system (UAS or drone) remote identification (remote ID) and flights over people and at night.

Oh...and you have to wear all white so everyone can spot you in public. That was in Section C, Appendix G, Subsection 1.3-11. Penalty for not wearing all white is $50,000 and a 16 month jail sentence.
BTW, is it possible to get a receiver right now? It would be helpful to know if something big is flying around.
As for the rules, it you take a look from the other side it makes sense. While most pilots are responsible some do things from annoying to illegal, like dropping things, stalking, harrasing, flying close to airports. Of course everyone wants to be able to identify the drone's owner, easily tell apart legal from illegal.
I don't have clear plans after 2.5 years. Looking at the videos I think Evo already payed for itself. I'll use the time left to take more, then probably switch to sub 250 FPV completely.
PS: Broadcasting pilot's location is too much I think. But it could be worst, at least we don't have to selfreport over the internet to every axxhole in real time. Like it was initially intended.

my "understanding", the AC already transmits the information since i have it displayed on the RC/smart device. seems "law enforcement", with some OEM SW tweaks could have all the same info. Gov'mnt being Gov'mnt needs to add more ^&** to impress the boss, efficiency be damned
^^yep I think it's going to be really easy to pull off. "when" and "price" is all that matters which I don't think there is anything available working today. I don't like it but imho, the government caved in on this.
