Registration number stickers

[Ragnar]

Has anyone come across registration numbers that are individually cut out instead of printed on a sticky strip?

I use a label maker

With clear tape!

It’s the tape I’m trying to eliminate altogether for a cleaner look.

Oh...I have a white alpine Mavic Pro, so I never gave that a second thought...my tape is white

you can get black print on clear tape on Amazon

My number is in the battery recess, so aesthetics aren't really a problem.

Registration numbers must now be visible on the exterior of the craft. Inside the battery compartment is no longer valid.

I am in the UK but I will check that the rules are unchanged. Thanks for the heads up ?

Keep in mind when you buy them from a craft store you will have to place each letter individually, and making them not look like a ransom note can be challenging. When you buy our FAA DECAL SET all graphics are computer cut with your exact FAA number, they look very professional as all the characters are pre-spaced and aligned for you.

Thanks for this ! Just ordered some for myself in silver for my MA2. 20 business days shipping to the UK though but it'll be worth it.

Shipping to the UK doesn't normally take that long, most are usually around 5-10 days, but COVID has slowed things a bit. Thank you for your business, fly safe!

I have a Brother label maker which allows you to select from many different fonts/sizes. You can print on transparent or various colors of background. Also, any color of font that you want. They are water proof and resist heat, will not peel off easily.

Sorry, I should have checked your location. This is one of the most multinational forums that I frequent.

That’s what I currently have. I just find the individual letters with no background -- even clear tape — to be a better-looking option.

It surely is. Its a pity our collective leadership can't find one like it that offers help and advice for all, rather than raise objections and highlight differences.

Anyone know what description to enter on the faa site to have a card id made. I'm being misdirected there. Recreational flyer. I'm already registered I just want the ID tag to put on my shirt.

I’m not sure the FAA supplies those, but third-party vendors do, often in conjunction with a set of stickers. Here’s one on Amazon: Amazon.com: FAA Drone Labels (2 Sets of 3) + FAA UAS Registration ID Card for Hobbyist Pilots: Camera & Photo

Those are cool, but I’d rather have them on a stencil where they are already spaced out and aligned to rub on at once. Was hoping something like that was available.

Find someone that has a vinyl cutter. They do that stuff all the time, I used to get them made for the car when my son played hockey.

I used my wife's Cricut machine for mine as well as cutting the owl on the front of the Mavic as seen in my avatar. There are hundreds of colors and styles of vinyl to choose from.

I ordered these for my boat #’s and my business van logo. They have done well for 5+ years in the elements.

I used something similar for my boat logo but seems like overkill for a tiny drone unless you’re doing more than just numbers. Installation required a wetting agent, which I would be reluctant to use on a small electronic device.
