What is a Remote ID and why do I need it?
Remote Identification (Remote ID), means that other parties can receive basic information about airborne drones digitally (in a similar way to general aviation). The example data that Remote ID drones transmit wirelessly during flight is the operator's registration number, drone serial number, and current position.
Europe and US are currently leading the way with the rest of the world following their trajectory. Remote ID aims to enable organized management of drone operations to ensure safe airspace

What is the difference between Broadcast and Network Remote ID?
There are two types of Remote IDs. The first is Broadcast (in some countries called Direct) Remote ID (BRI), in which the drone broadcasts data directly to nearby entities ranging from hundreds of meters to a few kilometers. The second type is Network Remote ID (NRI), where the drone sends the data via a cellular network to a central system where it can be accessed by other users.

Do I need to sign up for a subscription to broadcast Remote ID? 
No, to broadcast and receive remote ID locally (within your flight area), you do not need to signup for a subscription, however, if you want to access Network Remote ID (NRI) features (real-time drone tracking & flight data, flight planning, airspace notifications), you can sign up for a subscription on DroneTag's website. 

When do I need BRI and when NRI? Do I need both?
In the USA, the FAA mandates pilots to use DRI modules from September 2023 and drone manufacturers to comply with it (to produce Standard Remote ID drones) starting December 2022.

The current European-wide drone regulation requires all drones flying in a Specific category to fulfill the DRI requirements starting 1st July 2022. The technology and protocol are already defined in prEN 4709-002.

However, the situation about the NRI mandate is still a bit unclear. All we know is that it will be required to access U-space airspace starting January 2023.
To sum it up, having both DRI and NRI systems on your drone is better. Dronetag Mini is future-proof and will always fulfill the latest standards.

Can I use the Beacon without the subscription?
Yes, you can use Dronetag Beacon with Dronetag App in their Free tier without any monthly fees.

In which countries can I use Dronetag Beacon? ?
All. As Beacon transmits data via Bluetooth, it is usable anywhere in the world.
