Unexpected Questions - Part 107 sUAS Knowledge

[holtmike]

I wonder if anyone knows where the most up-to-date study guides are available for the Part 107 knowledge test. I just did the sample test on the FAA website and was stumped by a question:

Where must a sUAS's serial number be listed when using either a standard remote identification or a broadcast module?

a) Document of Compliance
b) Method of Compliance
c) Certificate of Aircraft Registration

I've not encountered any reference to this in the Remote Pilot Study Guide and would be grateful if anyone knows where these new subjects can be found online.

Thanks!

The answer would be “c” and one reference for this can be found in AC 107-2A 5.17.1 After September 16, 2023, most small unmanned aircraft that are registered or required to be registered must comply with remote identification requirements. The serial number of a standard remote identification unmanned aircraft, or of the remote identification broadcast module, if one is installed on the unmanned aircraft, must be listed on the Certificate of Aircraft Registration. The serial number may only be listed on one Certificate of Aircraft Registration at a time. The remote identification broadcast module may be moved from one unmanned aircraft operated under part 107 to another, but the serial number must also be moved from the first aircraft’s Certificate of Aircraft Registration to the second aircraft’s certificate prior to operation. Small unmanned aircraft that are not required to be registered under part 48, such as those where the unmanned aircraft weighs 0.55 pounds or less, must comply with remote identification requirements when operated under any operating part for which registration is required. Remote identification provides data regarding the location and identification of small unmanned aircraft operating in the NAS. It also provides airspace awareness to the FAA, national security agencies, and law enforcement entities, which can be used to distinguish compliant airspace users from those potentially posing a safety or security risk. A list of unmanned aircraft by make and model that are compliant with remote identification will be found at https://www.faa.gov/uas, when developed.
