Horizon and Spektrum are proud to announce the SkyID Remote Identification Module. This module will be available closer to the remote-id compliance date of September 16th, 2023. SkyID will be under $100.00 and provides GPS features through Spektrum telemetry but is also compatible with non-Spektrum radio systems as a standalone device.
Horizon Hobby and Spektrum are committed to ensuring that all our customers have the information needed to be in compliance with this new rule. Additionally, we will be providing educational materials and introductory pricing on SkyID. Most customers who fly at an AMA-sanctioned field have no need to worry about adding remote ID equipment if the field is an approved FRIA. However, it is up to the user to determine if they are in compliance and whether or not they need to install an RID module into their aircraft.
