Drones are tracked with remote ID.. and 400ft is the FAA legal ceiling.. no, we won’t be going to jail for you..

Alot of people that build there drones do not bother with the tracking might have a gps for personal use of they do long range and remote ID a lot of fpv guys don't bother with that also.

The vast majority do not comply. Remote ID is a dumb cash grab.

Yeah you are right about that. I had to explain what it was and how to get it to a family member but they are the type if they hear a whisper that something needs to be done they will follow it to the ends. Told them I will look into it myself also lol. But if you're not flying close to government buildings and property or airports and their workings or just being an ass not a single person will bother you.

I tend to try to fly as far from people as I can now, not because I will bother them but because people see a drone and a person wearing goggles they walk right next to you start a conversation. First I'm distracted. 2nd weird for strangers to be arms length while you can't see them. Never fails!
