A Remote ID broadcast module sends the drone's location plus which other location?

The takeoff location.

  1. The control station
  2. The planned landing spot
  3. The takeoff location ✔

Why: A broadcast module adds Remote ID to a drone that lacks it. It broadcasts ID and location of the drone plus its takeoff location, not the pilot's live position.

Huh, didn't know that: Part 89 requires a broadcast module to be able to determine the takeoff location on its own.

The dad joke
My broadcast module always remembers where we took off. I wish it could remember where I left my keys.
