OK thanks I guess ours will join in soon to follow suit,,,I don't mind it,I think it probly end up being good for all of us,
Attention: We will have to EXTERNALLY mark all aircraft with Reg #
- Thread starter BigAl07
- Start date
The rule is effective on February 25. The markings must be in place for any flight after that date.
I doubt it. That's off the FAA site. Also I copied it. should have put it in quotes, sorry.
I stand corrected
Maybe they wanted to give all of us one more weekend before it became law 
Oh Really? I don’t recall any requirement to attach / display ARN in Oz, perhaps I’ve forgotten, are you able to share a CASA link that states this please?
Don’t think so, but hey the rules are evolving all the time, the new registration coming in Oz may change all this again.
I've just sent CASA an email seeking clarification.
Will get back here when I have an answer.
I've been in compliance with this new rule since April 2017 - less than a week after I got my first Phantom... don't understand what's the problem with a label on the outside or why anyone would resist doing it?
An inexpensive Dymo LetraTag label maker and the clear plastic tape that fits it is perfect. No fading or peeling edges in all that time - it's still stuck on well and looks fine.

Please satisfy my curiosity. What are CASA and Oz?
G’day mate [emoji41]
CASA is Australia’s FAA equivalent. CASA = Civil Aviation Safety Authority.
Oz is short and friendly for Australia - we abbreviate everything when it suits. [emoji6]
Drones
When I registered with the FAA over a year ago and issued me my number, it said to put number on the outside of drone with suggested places to put them. The only thing new here is the mandatory part which I just assumed it was already when I registered.
Close, but no. Yes it was mandatory, but you could hide it inside the drone, as long as you didn't need any tools to get that info. Example of this is inside battery compartment.
Inside battery compartment was never an option for me. It gets hot in there and label has tendency to peel off. I dont want the chance of getting label getting between battery and AC contact points.
Makes sense. There are labels that are low profile and do fit inside without affecting the battery. I've seen them in other threads. My label maker is the one that punches out through a plastic take instead of printing, so it wasn't an option for me either.
