"On December 12, 2017, President Trump signed legislation that will
reverse the earlier court ruling
in the John Taylor case and restore the FAA’s UAS registration
requirement, including for AMA
members.

AMA believes that registration makes sense at some level, but has pushed
for a more reasonable
threshold. While we address these issues, members will be legally
required to comply with the FAA
registration requirement."

Glad I wasn't one of the those who wrote FAA for a refund and
cancellation of my number. But, I have
to admit I've not been doing much flying lately anyway!

I got my number for free during the initial offering but I don't have
a drone yet. I am still not sure why I want one..


My drone is a $13 indoor copter. Fun, and the grandkids like it. At my
boat storage yard, a guy was playing with his quad copter. Really nice
unit. He said it is limited to 4000’ but will go to 6000’. Says the
software and GPS will not let it fly in to FAA restrictive areas. But was
a $5000 rig.
