Your Contact Info on the Drone

[Trailryder42]

Do any of you put a sticker or something with your contact info, on the drone?

Just my FAA number per the requirements. On my Mav I had my name but I think the requirements were different cuz back then you could put the info inside the battery compartment. Now, last I checked, the FAA # is supposed to be on the outside of the aircraft.

What got me thinking about it was a video I saw while perusing Skydio 2 videos on YT of a guy that got fined $5000 for his drone not being registered and marked. He said that was the end of his drone flying.

Are you guys talking contact info or faa #?

They are 2 different things, but the latter can lead to the former, such as if your drone is lost amd an honest person finds it.

Well, I originally asked about just having something like a Ph# on the drone in case something wonky happened and you lost it. If found, you might get a call. But then you brought up the FAA and I commented on that.

I was going to print some out but someone pointed out a place that's giving away free drone stickers here: Free FAA Drone Registration Stickers - Pilot Institute You can display your phone number and FAA registration on 'em.

They're doing it to counter all the fake drone registration schemes going on out there, btw. Props to 'em for that!
