Call sign

[Oyibo VFX]

Just received my official Belgium callsign (OO number) today. So proud. Just have to change it with another serial number.
But... it's an official aircraft

Are you allowed to tell us what it is or is it secret? Or just a long series of alphanumeric?

Sure, no secrets. OO-12FD

Hello I live in Belgium, I am wondering, what are the benefits of registering your MP? Did you take the pilot license also ? Thanks

Yes. If you want to fly officially, your drone must be registered and insured. And officially, I mean outside your own property and above 10 meters altitude agl

I can't seem the find this info on the 'FOD mobility' website.

There is a document of their website but if you give me a PM, I can forward it to you as well.
You fill that out, scan and mail back to them. You'll get a reply for reception and after a while, in payment request for €131,00 incl. VAT. And they're forward the official after receiving this amount.
Please be aware that the sign is not transferrable. So, if you crash your drone after sending the application, you have to start (and pay) again. And since DJI likes to replace drones instead of fixing it... this is to be considered.
Further... if you just want to fly, then fly (within the restrictions). The Mavic is less the 1kg so you're safe. But if you fly with a Class II license, then it is required. Like insurance. I can give you the coordinates for that as well

Thank you for all the info. I already found the registration document.

I'm interested in registering because I want to go over the 10m limit without having to worry about publishing movies of those flights.
I was just gathering all the info to have an indication of the complete cost of it all.
The idea that when DJI replaces your drone, you have te re-register (and unregister the old one) did not yet crossed my mind.

Thanks again!

It is not an aircraft, it is a toy.

Actually it's an aircraft

 

[adrstuart]

Wonder how long it will be before the UK make it mandatory to pay for license for recreational use

It is not an aircraft, it is a toy.

What a strange reply. If you are a licenced pilot, you know the rules and regulations. Apparently you are not.

Now go to sleep

How can I get my "Call Sign" in the united states?

Hello Guys,
I was wondering how can I get a Callsign in the united states?

Hello Guys,
I was wondering how can I get a Callsign in the united states?

It’s the FAA egistration number in the US. But of course w/o a 2-way communication device it is not useful to call it such,

 

[broushaky]

Thank you Thomas, but it looks like the registration number and callsign number are different. I was trying to apply for an airspace authorization in DCA(Washington D.C. area) , the FAA website set me to another one for a background check9Transportation Security Administration). I had to create an account and fill up a 5 pages form. They asked for Registration number and Callsign number?!
