A Quick Review On Remote ID For 2024
I have seen other videos with similar topics, but felt that they only ever really covered surface level things, and ultimately I felt they were a waste of my time. Your video on the other hand was both informative and interesting. I appreciate the level of thought you put into the advice you presented. Some of these things I genuinely hadn't thought about and found what you covered to be very helpful.
😢 if the drone weighs over .55 lbs (250g) it has to registered even if it’s is being used recreationally. Also, any drone over 250g (fully loaded with batteries and payload) have to have remote ID in addition to being registered.
This really helped thanks a lot!
Great video, thanks for the info.
Thank you for checking out our content!
Show us what battery inspection looks like but never mind showing us the prop balancer. 😵💫
Thanks for the feedback! I didn't have one on hand to include in the filming that day, but there are several good ones you can get on Amazon that range between $20 and $60. Thanks for checking out the video!
Thank you for your help. I just registered my new Dji mavic 3 classic following your instructions. Fly safe guys…
Awesome! Let us know how you enjoy flying it!
Thanx for explaining the ev i havent seen any videos on that subject until this video!
Thank you for checking out our content!
How do I download drone fly for magic 2 pro
Hello, can you clarify what you are looking to download? I'm assuming you mean for the Mavic 2 pro and DJI Fly. If that is correct, the Mavic 2 Pro does not use the Fly app. You will want to download the DJI Go 4 app. I hope that helps.
@@altitudeuniversity mavic 2pro I want the app or website for it to download on my iphone 13
@@snoop04 Perfect, all you need to do is go to the app store and look for the "DJI Go 4" app. That's all you need to have in order to fly your drone. Let us know if you have any issues!
@@altitudeuniversity ok thanks, my monitor is my problem now I tried charging and is not accepting light always 0% not charging atall what could be the issue now,?
Outdated!
Thanks for taking a look at our video. We are in the process of updating this and have posted more recent videos that cover the updates. Check out our night flight, flying over people, and Remote ID videos! Thanks!
The answer at 3.28 is correct in being East, however you also said "or at their 3 o'clock." I don't think that's accurate. A remote PIC does not have a heading, so we need to stick to cardinal directions.
Thank you for the feedback. We appreciate the recommendation and see how it can be helpful to make the question less confusing.
Creo que el requisito de la luscencia de los drones para publicar mi arte es una violación o infracción de mi libertad de expresión. 🪶

What type of drone was it?
2024 - No waiver required. Can you update this?
Thanks for asking! We'll add it to our list. Thank you!
What If you dont want to crop the video, but still want it to fit vertically in 9:16 (with full screen)?
Thanks for watching our content. If you want a video to fit vertically in a 9:16 aspect ratio without cropping, you have a few options: Letterboxing or Pillarboxing: This involves adding black bars to either the sides (pillarboxing) or the top and bottom (letterboxing) of the video to maintain the original aspect ratio. This way, the video will fit within the 9:16 frame without cropping any content, but you'll have black bars around it. Scaling and Padding: You can scale the video to fit within the 9:16 frame while maintaining the original aspect ratio. This might leave some empty space on the sides or top and bottom, which you can fill with a background color or texture to match your video's aesthetic. Creative Editing: If possible, you could reframe or reposition elements within your video to ensure important content remains within the central 9:16 area. This approach requires some editing skills to adjust the composition effectively.
@@altitudeuniversity Thank you so much, you solved my problem!
@@MB_070 Glad we could help and even more grateful you checked out our content!
No, I’m only a recreational right now. Not sure if I want to get my 107. Too much liability and then I need to get insurance etc. i dont need to make money, I’m retired. But I want to keep learning.
Drones are a great way to enjoy retirement! If you ever do decide to get your part 107 check out our course in the comments link. The insurance is pretty affordable as well. I have owned a drone service business since 2017 and $1M in liability is around $50/month. That's not too bad. Keep us posted on how drones are making the most of your retirement!
Thank you so much bro this explains a lot to me cause i have avata 2. So what program is that for video exercises????
Thanks for watching! It is Adobe Premiere Pro.

Good luck convincing any realtor to pay you $200 for a single project. If they even have any interest, they don't want to pay more than $150 for video and photo.
It can be a challenge for sure. The key is to sell the value of your services beyond what the perception may be ("just a drone pilot"). I like to add that I offer safety, flying legally so they don't get fined and that I carry insurance so if there is an accident, they are covered. It usually helps sell the idea of hirer rates.
The app doesn't work
Hello, this video was created a few years ago. Which app isn't working? I'll let you know one that is currently available. Thanks!
Airmap doesn't work.
@@DreammoreRealty Thanks for the clarification. Yes, Airmap has closed down. I personally use Aloft now to check on airspace. Check it out, and let me know what you think!
@@altitudeuniversity Thank you
@@DreammoreRealty No worries!
I am taking my exam in about a week and was wondering if any of the information was recently updated or changed and also if i have to further study any sectional charts. Thanks for the video it's helped alot!
Hello, the FAA does make changes from time to time. Typically, you see updates every couple of years. The latest is Remote ID. Our course is always updated with new material, and when changes are made, we typically make a UA-cam video on the change.
I felt destroyed when I failed… by 2.
It can be disappointing, but at least when you retake it you have an even better idea of what to expect. Did you retake it yet?
I just took my exam today (June 2024) - AND PASSED! Thank you for all your resources. They helped me tremendously in studying.
Congrats! We wish you the very best in your career as a commercial drone pilot!
yeah I mean you were shooting a photo at that point 1/50 and its a moving drone..probabl;y a bad idea for photography, however ND filters ARE a great idea for the drone in bright light
Thanks for the feedback. We think every pilot needs to have ND filters if they want to get the best photos, especially in bright light.
Who else here hates the government?
I watched this video at 2x speed while going 70 in a 35 on my way to the psi testing center and passed with a 72%!!! Thank you so much!
Hello, while it's not the approach we would recommend, we are glad you made it there safely and that our content helped you pass. Thanks for checking our video out.
Does one need a 107 to fly an over 250g drone with RID enabled only for recreation? This seems to be a very grey area.
Hello, thanks for asking this question. The Part 107 is specifically for those looking to fly drones commercially. If you are only flying for fun (that means not even loading videos to UA-cam - just flying), you won't need the Part 107.
You're giving 20x the information you need to solve the problem.
Thanks for the feedback. We like to provide everything you need to know so that you can understand the material and solve the problem. We hope the content helped give you what you needed. Thank you!
I think I'll click off when one of the steps is to subscribe. No thanks, passed the test already and only need a refresher in the background.
We are glad to hear you passed the exam. Congrats!

I'm 17 years old and bought a DJI Mini 3 (not Pro) because I'd like to start up a business to make some extra money. I also just really like photography.
Awesome! Starting a drone business is a great option to make some extra money that may become a full-time gig. How long have you had your drone license?
@@altitudeuniversity I don’t have it yet
@@maxen3907@maxen3907 Well, you definitely should start with getting your license. You are obviously past the 16-year-old limit. What is your plan? Are you going to learn on your own, use a course like ours, or something else?
I use a Rocket book to document all my flights which I can then upload all the data to my google drive. Rocketbooks are reusable and make sure you have extra pens.
Great suggestion! I use a $10 printed flight log I purchased off Amazon, but I have used Rocket Book before, and they are great. Thanks!
Can you make a tutorial for how / when to use the anti-collision lights and maybe walk through the basics of the repair kit as well? Thank you for giving us helpful info for us to safely succeed!
Thank you for the suggestion! I'll talk to the team and see what we can do. Are there other topics you would be interested in?
@@altitudeuniversity I'm learning just from studying that there's a lot of little things that go into being a drone pilot. I'm taking my part 107 test on Tuesday! Most of the drone gigs I'm preparing for are simple photo and video capturing an event or a space. I would love to see a comprehensive video walking through a full job and the steps needed to prepare for something bigger. Things like contacting ATC for permission, or using radios to contact towers for weather are intimidating for a someone who isn't a full-time manned aircraft pilot. I would love to transition out of the smaller drones like my Mavic 2 or Air 3 that I just got into larger ones that hold camera rigs for my commercial shoots, but I don't know where to start. Any other videos that feature specific gear or prep items would be great. I loved seeing the landing pad you use, that's a great idea. Things like logbooks or how to use the radios would be awesome. For any flight scenario that propeller guards are advised or required, are there ways to add those on to DJI-type consumer drones? Or do you need something bigger or more of a custom built setup for that? Just a few ideas off the top of my head. I love to see anything involving practical application of all the stuff we're studying. Thanks again!
@@drewkloss Thanks for the feedback! These are all great ideas that we will look to include in future videos.
Thanks so much for doing these videos! We all appreciate it!
Thank you for watching it!
What other topics would you like us to cover?
Thank you for this. I'm taking my test next week. Hoping I pass!
Good luck! Please let us know how you do.
We passed!
@@tc9568 Congrats! May you always find success as a commercial drone pilot! Keep us posted on how things are going.
I am so frustrated with this. I have been studying these maps and I'm just not getting this. The nomenclature used in the answers for the video didn't make sense to me. I'm working on a practice test and I cannot figure out the questions concerning the floor and ceiling of the areas around certain airports. I'm searching the maps for the indicated references and cannot find them.
The sectional charts give a lot of people issues until it finally clicks. I'd recommend going through our module on sectional charts again. It will fill in some of the gaps. Don't worry, as long as you keep studying, you'll get it!
Am I missing something? I cannot possibly know which direction the remote PIC should look the "unmanned aircraft operations at 9 o'clock" because they only tell you where your drone is in relation to the manned air traffic not in relation to you, the remote PIC. I could be anywhere viewing my drone in flight, especially since the 2 miles distance is under the 3 miles required visibility.
Hello, this is one of the most difficult questions in the material. Honestly, after taking the Part 107 test in person 3 times and the recurrent several times as well, I have never seen this question on the exam. I wouldn't worry too much about this one.
very good thanks👍
Thanks for taking a look at our content!
Color is the secret 😂
Thanks for checking out our content!
you can google faa trust test and your state name and you will find it... its pretty easy you dont need to study. you can also take it an unlimited number of times. you also need to be able to show the certificate of completion of this test, or a part 107 pilots license (commercial) along with the registration of the drone both on your person and on the outside of the drone itself.
Thanks for checking out our content. TRUST is a great place for everyone to start. Thanks for the additional information!
I’ve been studying the pilot institute course and it’s so much information. 12 hours of information is way too much honestly. I often don’t even have time for it most days after work. Is there anything else that gets straight to the point of what I need to study beforehand? I just want to know what to study and take my test already.
Hello, it can get frustrating when deciding what you need for the test. We think our course is a great one for preparing for the exam. Our practice tests help most students feel like they are well prepared. To get a feel for what we cover, check out our video on reviewing for the Part 107. If you sort our videos by length or views, it is the one at the top of the list. If you have any specific questions, feel free to email me at david@sdaltitude.com. I hope that helps! Good luck with your studies!
DJI MINI 3 RECREATIONAL just for fun... But just incase I do want to upload on youtube if my channel takes off I need a registration number ya know
REMOTE ID SERIAL NUMBER * cant find this information >.<
@@Joshinyou If you load the footage to UA-cam you need a Part 107 license. The FAA considers UA-cam commercial work. The remote ID serial number should be in the battery compartment on the drone. it is the same serial number as the drone. Even if you don't think you will be making money by posting the footage on UA-cam the FAA can still hit you on it if they choose to. A lot of people don't realize it, but that is technically what the law says. I hope that helps, thanks for watching the video!
That's the 5 dollar license correct? I've taken the trust test certification as well as paid for recreational use 5 dollars now in the process of paying another 5 dollars per the 107
Just paid and registered for the part 107 I wish I could email you pictures of what I've done so far as I have printed out what I've needed to as well saved in my email. Would I need to list both numbers on the underside of my drone 🤔
@@Joshinyou Hello, if you only have one drone, you can just list the registration number that is associated with commercial work. There is no need to put the other number since the commercial registration number can cover both. I hope that helps.
Don’t fly over people. Unless you’re a professional with a lawyer and a waiver.
It's always best to be safe and follow the rules. Flying over people can be tricky, but we agree with you; always do it the legal way. Thanks!
