That just seems crazy. Just wondering because I have some old drones that I never upgraded the firmware with. I thought not upgrading firmware helps with things like this.
It depends where you live. In the UK, if you fly a legacy drone in the Open category, you only need to use remote ID if it’s already fitted to the drone.That just seems crazy.

Same in EASA regulations, but I expect them to change. Drone delivery will be a big part of the future, and those of us in the hobby will get more and more restrictedIt depends where you live.

I'm just wondering how it's going to be implemented. I think if you don't upgrade firmware, even no fly zones aren't imposed on your drone.It depends where you live. In the UK, if you fly a legacy drone in the Open category, you only need to use remote ID if it’s already fitted to the drone.
I haven't a clue, but if you watch what's happening in the U.S, there will likely be enforcement. People blatantly breaking the regs on YouTube videos will be targetedI'm just wondering how it's going to be implemented.

I don't plan on breaking regs. I am just curious about the tech more than anything. Today, it's the same story with NFZ. If you don't upgrade the firmware, it doesn't ground your drone so I'm wondering how they'd do it with remote ID.I haven't a clue, but if you watch what's happening in the U.S, there will likely be enforcement.

New regulations are not going to render your drone inoperable at all.I'm wondering how they'd do it with remote ID.
Yeah, seems like it.New regulations are not going to render your drone inoperable at all.
They will just give you new rules to comply with.
And since the proposed new rules aren't even developed, no-one knows what will be in them and if they would contain provisions for for the use of existing drones.

An RID module (Add-On) is one of the options in the new rule.I think Rick at Drone Valley and 51Drones mentioned something about a add-on device about the size of a strobe unit. Broadcast of drone ID and position isn't what bothers me, it's operator position. So we wait and see.
