Any Aeroscope info broadcasted?

What aeroscope details are broadcasted in the clear with the mini 5 pro?
Same as RID (Pilot location, drone location and flight path, drone model and serial number, heading, elevation above launch point, drone distance from controller, speed, distance from detector) plus a few others.

Can we check on linux with aircrack?
Aircrack is illegal to use on any other network but your own. It is considered "Hacking" and you could end up in jail.

If you use aircrack-ng to monitor data transmitted by your own drone, that should be legal in most jurisdictions. Try to collect data from someone's drone without permission would be illegal.

No it aint, same way SDR radio is legal...
Using aircrack-ng on your own drone's transmissions is legal. Using it to gain unauthorized access to resources on someone else's system is illegal, defined in the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA) of 1986.

If RID transmission is mandatory and public and detection is legal, why would what method was used to receive the RID transmission matter, whether via an RID detection app, a Dronetag RIDER, Aeroscope, or aircrack-ng? More importantly, why would it be illegal to detect someone else's RID transmission? Isn’t that the whole purpose of RID, that of making it public?

No one has posted in this thread that parsing RID packets would be illegal.

Using a tool to decrypt network packets to gain access to a network without authorization is illegal. It doesn't matter if the network is Wi-Fi or what the specific tool is.

All you really need to know about AEROSCOPE is if they are using it in a certain area they are pretty serious about enforcing a no drone rule!
Basically Stay away from the area with a Drone. Aeroscope is fazed out now anyway, It was replaced with AirWARDEN (at least in Annahiem).
 
DJI discontinued production of the Aeroscope system in 2022 and officially stopped selling it in March 2023.
