Expert advice needed on drone registration for m4p

[Airheadbit]

Hmm. There's a paradox there. The Mini 4 Pro is certified as a single model with a single Declaration of Compliance that indicates that it broadcasts RID, but it does not broadcast RID with the standard battery installed?

DJI could implement a software switch that allows RID to be switched ON when the standard battery is installed, with no OFF action. The switch would reset to the normal OFF position (when standard battery is used) when the drone is powered down and restarted.

Is there really an FAA document that says manual on/off switches are prohibited? If so, what is the actual language used?

The 'switch' is the larger battery, they can them Intelligent batteries for a reason, they talk to the controller. I think that DJI asked the FAA about this issue and the results are how it is.
I wish I could use the smaller battery, I fly for work and must have RID ...
