FAA Registration
As of December 21, 2015, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has mandated
that all Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) of a certain weight must be registered with
the FAA before flying outdoors. This includes aircraft commonly referred to as drones,
quadcopters, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV), and the like. Owners not in compliance
are subject to civil and criminal penalties.
The Online Registration fee is $5, but will be credited back to your account if the
registration is completed within the first 30 days of ownership. Once completed, the
registration is valid for 3 years.
Which UAS Must Be Registered?
The Online Registration requirement applies to all UAS that weigh between 0.55 lbs
(250g) and 55 lbs (25kg). The SkyRider Eagle Pro meets this requirement, and must
be registered, and your FAA Registration ID Number must be permanently affixed
to the craft�
Aircraft that weigh more than 55 lbs have a different set of criteria for registration.
Who Can Register?
• Anyone 13 years of age or older. A person who does not meet this age
requirement must have their UAS registered by someone 13 years of age or older.
• A US citizen or legal permanent resident.
What Do You Need to Register?
When registering online, you will need:
• A valid email address
• A Credit or Debit Card
• A physical and mailing address (if different from physical address)
