[QUOTE="PhantomFandom, post: 99903, member: 15128"] Hi Ray, A few items: [LIST] [*]You are not a licensed Part 107 pilot so you don't actually register the drone. You are registering yourself with the FAA and then you put that registration number on any drone that you fly. If your brother in-law had done that as well, just take his number off of the drone and put yours on there. [*]There is ONE and only ONE correct place to register with the FAA and it is the [URL='https://faadronezone.faa.gov/#/']FAA Drone Zone[/URL]. Once you get to the main page, go to the link for [URL='https://faadronezone.faa.gov/#/register']Exception for Recreational Flyers[/URL]. The fee is only $5.00 for a two year period. [*]Your registration number must be displayed on the OUTSIDE of the drone so it is clearly visible. I would highly recommend also putting your phone number on that label. If the drone should get lost, there is then a way for someone else to find you. [*]VERY IMPORTANT: Even though there are many places to fly "legally" in NYC, you need to be very careful.
