Hey guys...new to flying, just got my new Spark the other day and am LOVING IT...way too cool.  But need some guideance on the FAA registration.  Do I have to register it with the FAA?  Read some "yes you do", some "no you don't"...but then came across this link http://federaldroneregistration.com/ where is stated that as of 12/15/17 it's required.  I was going through the process but it looked a little shady for a FAA registration website and a $25.00 price tag.  If it's ligit, I'll make sure I do it.  But just wanted to ensure that A.  It's required, and B. that site is the correct sight.
Thanks

  

It's a SCAM.  Registration direct with the FAA is $5.00 and takes about 5 minutes.  Registration was re-instated. on 12/15/17, and is valid for 3 years from date of registration.

Well...on the plus side its good to register your drone...on the other hand the registration fee is only $5 usd, so yeah you were in the wrong place.

Appreciate the feed back, but can someone provide me the correct location to register.
