When I first bought my
Mini 2, I read the user manual front-to-back and I examined all the entries in the Fly App Menu and I seem to remember an option in the Menu for Remote ID. There was no info in the manual, and no requirement for a RID, so I did not mess with it.
In the link above, it references the RID requirements in Japan and it renewed my interest in a RID for my
Mini 2, even though one would not be required since it weights under 250 Grams…
I went through my Fly App menu again and I did not find any option for a RID for my
Mini 2 and was wondering if it has been removed since it's not required in the States.
You see, I'm a bit of a "trouble maker…" To use Hotspoting (tethering) on my Smartphone I chose "FBI-Surveillance-Van" as the SSID (network ID) for my Smartphone.
When I hit my favorite FREE Web Hotspots (like McDonalds, Starbucks, the Library, etc…) I turn on Hotspoting and look to see who might be monitoring for "open Networks" and every now and then, I see someone get up and quickly exit the facility, usually with their power cord still dangling behind them…
So, I was wondering if it's possible to enter a RID like "NSA-Surveillance" or some such ID on my
Mini 2. I cannot imagine it would be illegal, as I am not actually impersonating an agent or such…
Yeah, I know, I've got too much time on my hands, but I'm sure you have seen all the Postings by our members who have been accosted by busy-bodies who try to "tell them the law…" about where and when they can fly a drone and it will not take long before those busy-bodies get the Smart Phone App to read RID once it's required…
