Well the first comment period came and went and by what has been released by the FAA since indicates that the majority of those comments went right into the virtual round bin. I would expect the same on subsequent rounds, only with much less interaction from the trenches as we now see the writing on the wall, so what's the use.
A lot of words to say I get the impression that R. Martin's thoughts are probably correct. Simple, sensible RID is not in the cards.
And, "it doesn't matter 'cus in 3 years all the current uavs will be in the waste basket so it doesn't matter" is simply incorrect. (no disrespect to anyone that believes this). My 5 year old P3P still operates just fine. Religated to emergency or high risk use (for the drone), yes. But working perfectly. My P1 still flies too for that matter. I can't be the only one that takes care of their kit.
