Just to be clear I'm doing this right, I am flying my drone(s) for recreational purposes only... no Part 107.   I get a registration number from the FAA.  

1)  That number is my registration number and not necessarily the drone's.  
2)  I can use that one number for and on all my drones...each drone does not need it's own individual number.
3)  I don't have to register each drone individually.
4)  If I buy a new drone, I don't have to register it as long as I already have an FAA registration number.
5)  If I buy a Mavic Mini as my first and only drone, I don't have to register it with the FAA because it's less than 250 grams.

Please answer yes or no to a specific numbered statement.  Don't guess...reply only if you're positive.  Thanks!!!

1. Correct. You are registered.
2. Correct, as per point 1.
3. Same question as 2. Correct. As per point 1.
4. Same question again. Correct As per point 1
5. Correct if you don't want to fly commercially (no 107) as per your opening statement.

None of this is guesswork on my part; I've registered with the FAA and checked up directly with the FAA and got a response back confirming the Mavic Mini.
Happy Flying!  

Ian

Yes to all questions, but check it out yourself at the faa website.

Don’t forget faa registered or not you should check the faa app ‘B4ufly’ as this will alert you to any flying restrictions etc..
