Operator ID Requirements When Lending Unmanned Aircraft

In plain language

If you lend your drone to a friend, it must still broadcast your Operator ID. You should pre-load your Operator ID into the drone before letting them fly it to protect your private secure key.

Requirement as structured

CAAS states that when lending a UA to another pilot, the UA owner's Operator ID must be used, and the owner should pre-load their Operator ID into the UA before authorizing its use.

Original regulatory text

The UA owner's Operator ID must be used. To protect your private secure key when lending your drone, pre-load your Operator ID into the UA before authorising the use of the UA.
