Introduction
In the ever-evolving world of drone technology, staying updated on regulatory changes is crucial for both drone enthusiasts and professionals alike. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has recently made a significant announcement that will affect the drone industry. Priority 1 Drones is dedicated to keeping our valued customers informed, and in this blog post, we will delve into the FAA’s release of drone models that have received Declaration of Compliance (DOC) for Remote ID regulations.

This delay provides drone pilots with more time to prepare for the changes ahead if your drone is non-Remote ID compliant. However, it’s essential to note that the FAA has stated, “Drone pilots are still expected to comply with the original September 16, 2023 compliance date for Remote ID if your drone is Remote ID compatible.”
