Dronetag Beacon

Direct / Broadcast Remote Identification

New regulations are forcing pilots in the EU and US regions to make their drones digitally visible. We created Beacon, the add-on that makes drones instantly compliant with the latest DRI standards. Upgrade your existing drone, without the need to purchase a new aircraft.

Slap the Dronetag Beacon on and instantly enhance your drone with DRI capability. The tiny device transmits the drone location via Bluetooth up to 3km (1.86mi).

Supported Regions

• European Union – ASD-STAN | Compliant with prEN 4709-002 which requires Direct Remote Identification for drones above 250g flying below 120 meters in the Specific Category.

• USA – ASTM | Compliant with ASTM F3411 which requires Broadcast Remote ID for all pilots flying out of FAA-recognized identification areas.

• Other Countries | As Beacon is only transmitting data via Bluetooth, it is usable anywhere in the world. All countries using ASD-STAN or ASTM standard are supported. Check your local rules.
