The majority of drones zipping across U.S. airspace require a Remote ID that serves up location information and other data. If you're in the market for a DJI drone, then, which models will keep you flying?

To ensure FAA compliance, many DJI drones have already been given firmware updates. Older drones will likely require an add-on ID device, but don't worry, you have until September 16, 2023 to get your drone "legal"—unless it falls under these Remote ID excemptions:

[1] You fly a drone that weighs less than half a pound, and only for recreation purposes.

[2] You fly at an FAA-Recognized Identification Area (FRIA).

But if you want to buy a new drone and forget about it—here are 15 DJI models that include Remote ID:
