[QUOTE="WingmanGoose, post: 101397, member: 18869"] The problem is the FAA will likely want real-time tracking in the future for crash prevention and for big brother reasons. Easiest way would be with software sending GPS data, much like how the Go app shows the drones location on the app map. The problem would be sending the stream of data if the phone is in airplane mode or doesn’t have service. That is why the FAA may require a special transponder, and my concern of what will happen to legacy drones. FAA getting tracking data a day after a drone flight won’t do any good to prevent a crash with a reckless drone pilot (although it’d help with the investigation). [/QUOTE]
