I have phone when using the phone, RID is dependent on the phone's GPS so any issues there may delay or block RID. It's impossible to know exactly how your phone is handling that connection; we only know that it

Sorry I meant using your phone with your drone so that RID works without throwing an error. My M3P had an RID error and I could launch, turns out my phone was connected to another device and it was “busy” but I quickly discovered the issue and once I re-connected, all is fine. I panicked for second because an unexplained RID issue is fatal and difficult for the user to repair and there are no US repairs…..What app are you using? I am using AirSentinel. This app is not GPS dependent it only needs it to display the map at your location. When I turned my phone location off the map showed in the middle of Africa. As I moved it to US it shows the 1 for drones nearby guessing that is from the drone gps. It does not require any stats to transmit RID info. The location data is not in the RID info until home point. I was reading the RID with motors on 0 sats on RC from indoors. It is also showing that I haven't registered it, operator is uknown and next to the serial/RID it shows undeclared.
Yes, RID is only broadcast after the motors are activated, and not by merely turning on the battery.I can also confirm that my M4P, shipped from Japan, also has RID. Interestingly, It didn't activate when I turned on the drone, but as soon as I lifted off, it popped up on my phone. As reported above, it is the serial number of the drone.
FCC modeIs your Korean drone in FCC mode or CE mode? I have one arriving tomorrow and it is my understanding it should auto switch between the two but there is a warning on the description that says Korean models are CE only?
No distinction for country. Mine looks the same as the one you posted from Adorama.Yes, RID is only broadcast after the motors are activated, and not by merely turning on the battery.
Curious about the shipment from Japan, though.
1. On the serial number sticker on the bottom of the box, is there any country code in brackets above the serial number, say for Japan, like the (KR) for Korea?
2. What are the last 5 digits of the UPC code on the sticker at the bottom right?
My Adorama one ended in 13549, while the Korean ones ended in 13488.
My stickers from Korea and Adorama look like this, with the serial numbers removed:
