It is also not required for those who have been granted an operator permit and are using the FlyItSafe mobile application during the permitted unmanned aircraft operation.The agency is seeking feedback on a proposed implementation plan, which includes giving owners one year to comply with the requirement.According to CAAS, most new unmanned aircraft in the market and more than half of those registered with CAAS in 2024 are already equipped with built-in B-RID modules.
“Users who do not submit an application to CAAS within this time will have to procure a compliant B-RID module and bear all applicable costs on their own,” the agency said.CAAS also plans to provide users with educational and guidance materials on the purchase of unmanned aircraft or B-RID modules and the necessary checks to ensure they are functioning.Drone activities have gained popularity in Singapore over the years.
