Red Cat’s Teal 2 sUAS Receives Remote ID Certification From FAA
22 Agosto 2023 - 8:30AM
Red Cat Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: RCAT) ("Red Cat" or the "Company"),
a drone technology company integrating robotic hardware and
software for military, government and commercial operations, today
announces that its military-grade sUAS, the Teal 2, has received
Remote ID certification from the Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA).
Remote ID allows UAS in flight to provide
identification and location information that other parties can
receive via a broadcast signal. The technology is designed to
provide increased safety and security in U.S. airspace as unmanned
aerial systems become more ubiquitous. The FAA will require all UAS
operating in the U.S. national airspace system to be equipped with
Remote ID as of Sept. 16.
Red Cat’s integrated Remote ID system goes above
and beyond the technology being used in competing drones. It sits
inside the Teal 2 vehicle, broadcasting data from the flight
control system about once per second to ensure a high level of
accuracy. The use of Bluetooth 5 allows the signal to be
transmitted over a longer distance — as far as a mile —
significantly outpacing the range of other systems on the
market.
“I think this really speaks to who we are at Red
Cat and what our values are,” said Brendan Stewart, vice president
of regulatory affairs at Red Cat. “We view ourselves as an aircraft
manufacturer, as opposed to a consumer electronics manufacturer
building something that flies. What sets us apart is our ability to
look into the future, figure out what the FAA’s goals are in
implementing a particular regulation, and then build technology
that allows us to not only meet the regulation today, but sets our
customers up for long-term success in a changing regulatory
environment.”
Red Cat recently tested its Remote ID integration
in New York with NUAIR acting as the independent third-party
validator, using ASTM International standard F3586-22 for the means
of compliance testing. Working alongside individuals from the
standardization committee who helped write the regulations for
Remote ID, NUAIR personnel also provided mission commander, visual
observers, airworthiness check and test card formulation.
“Remote ID is another great step forward to safely
integrate drones into the national airspace and move the commercial
drone industry forward,” said NUAIR CEO Ken Stewart. “NUAIR has
conducted multiple validations for other ASTM Standards including
sUAS parachute recovery systems and we are happy to see Red Cat
receive their certification following our successful validation of
their Remote ID solution.”
Going forward, all Teal 2 systems sold for
operation within the U.S. will be manufactured with Remote ID
included. Red Cat is also creating a pathway for owners of
previously manufactured Teal 2s to have Remote ID modules installed
on their units to comply with FAA regulations.
“We've put a lot of effort, a lot of resources and
a lot of capital into this to make sure that our customers won't
have a service interruption,” said Brendan Stewart. “For us at Red
Cat, standing behind the quality of our products means ensuring
that they’ll remain operational and compliant with regulations long
into the future.”
