Except there are significant differences between sub 250g and 250g and over. If over 250g, the drone must broadcast RID. If over 250g, you must also register yourself as a pilot, and put your pilot reg number on the drone.
Each one of those is...
So would you agree if I took my Mini 3 Pro and I attached a strobe light on it which took the weight to 251g, I shouldn't bother to register it with the FAA? Is that [new] position we're taking on in the drone community?
No idea but all I can tell you is I would be super unhappy if I lost a bar out in the middle of nowhere with an Air 3S at 4000 feet but you didn't say how high. Try another completely different location.
