The changes to Part 48 are more worrisome that the "Fly at a CBO established FRIA (flying field)" in that it proposes a single registration method for all UAS. At, first glance that is individual registration per model, not per flyer/person as it is now for recreational. What can I say, Depron and PLA was cheap and addictive, I have several hundred models... that's a lot of registrations! They also reference "Serial Numbers"... last time I looked, we have none.
o The NPRM proposes to amend parts 47 and 48 to require, as part of the registration process, the provision of the serial number of the UA and the telephone number of the owner of the UA. o The NPRM proposes to revise part 48 to have a single set of registration requirements for all small UAS (irrespective of whether they are flown for recreational or non-recreational). |

Some one said on RCU that going by this pic, if you at AMA sanctioned field that is already covered you won't need remote ID aka a fria field

Basically this whole thing is hard pressed to account for what we do in the legacy RC model airplane world.

I don't see many limited remote ID being produced or sold. I just don't see any use case for "limited" remote ID.
Why would you produce a "limited" remote ID what the only extra thing you need to included to make it a "standard" remote ID is a Bluetooth/WiFi radio transmitting the ID? It will be more cost effective to simply make a single standard class remote ID model with Bluetooth than to make both a limited and standard model. Most users are going to want Bluetooth or WiFi to connect anyway so it is not even "extra" hardware in most cases. |

Please read the actual NPRM. It is not as simple as that figure would lead you to believe. AMA chartered club sites are not an automatic free pass. There is a process and many requirements to meet. And then the FAA is under no obligation to approve the request.

I haven't seen any basis for a diameter in anything offered by the FAA. Is this just an attempt at getting folks riled up?

Anyone who wants to fly a model airplane legally except for a tiny one is pretty much going to have to join a CBO that has an FRIA agreement for a particular flying area in place with the FAA. It could take years to get these agreements in place. I seriously doubt may young folks are going to pass a knowledge these and then sign up with a CBO to fly model airplanes.
In a few years the skies should pretty much be free of recreational RC pilots. The number of drone registrations is going to decrease dramatically after the next renewal period. |

Read the smaller of the 2 documents in the original post of this thread and come to your own conclusions. My conclusion, for us "line of site model aircraft enthusiasts" is that not only are we limited to 400' AGL, they've now thrown in 400' horizontally from the pilot/UAS operator. Of course that horizontal distance might just change for a "FAA approved we know who you are and where you are on our map fixed base flying site under the guise of a CBO (that we've yet to determine)" but the chances of that happening are what?

All those fields need to be accurately located and submitted to the FAA for approval. I do not think a blanket approval will work....

Standard Remote ID (internet and direct broadcast) Limited Remote ID (Internet only broadcast) All else (no capability for internet or broadcast) The 400' radius is only mentioned for "Limited" If you have no capability for Remote ID you are locked in to an approved site only.... |

Reason: corrected "limited" class
