'Remote ID' Has Been a Major Concern For The Model Aircraft Community
The Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA) Government Affairs team continues to work toward advocating for a more-inclusive solution to Remote ID. AMA has been providing sensible recommendations for the hobbyist community to comply with Remote ID since this process started in 2017. The FAA is currently in the process of reviewing more than 50,000 comments that were submitted to the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM). "We were told that the recreational community had a large impact during the comment period and there were many identified issues with the rule that will need better solutions, which include cost, broadcast abilities, and FAA Recognized Identification Areas."
