I brought my MA2 out of mothballs to update rid compliance (I've done the update) followed instructions but the edit button in stilled grayed out, what am I doing wrong here?
 
They want another $5 from you lol

I've followed everything up to the point of filling in the SN of the drone and I'm stiil unable to complete it. The original listing on the MA2 is still listed as no Rid on my dashboard. I sent a email to the FAA asking for help as I'm not sure what to do. I was unable to delete the original listing or complete a new listing hoping that I would have access to deleting the old one that didn't work for me. God I feel old today, Lol. Can someone help Grandpa,,,lol.
 
Are you working on the Recreational dashboard or is this part 107?
 
Grandpa just figured it out after a bad scare, OMG! Got the num written down, went to turn off the drone just as it stared dong something and the lights freaked out says I wasn't connected to the drone and couldn't reconnect or turn off the drone. Out of desperation I unhooked to drone battery all the while hoping it wouldn't start the props.
So in a nutshell my MA2 is now compliant with rid and active, but I'm still unable to delete to old listing for now.

So now my old number needs to be removed from my drone body and add the new rid # in it's place, correct?

Correct. If you received a new number and it's current for that drone, that's the number which should be affixed.

OK here’s some help from an even older Grandpa! I think you have cracked it but just in case! I struggled for ages with this RID issue and it is all sorted. I have, like you, a MA2. You are talking about the Serial Number of your drone which should be showing on the main body under where the battery sits-mine surrounds a QR Code. That number needs to show as your new Serial Number which I think should start with 1581F and end with a 0. This is the one that should show on your FAA Dashboard. Don’t get confused with the FAA Registration No that should be showing somewhere on the body or arms of your drone for “all to see”. Hope this helps further.
