Remote I’d is already on your drone and literally needs a firmware/software update, its been on all dji drones since 2017.

I know that it is in MA2 (can be disabled in Fly app at the moment AFAIK) but is there some reciever that can read that ID information? Is it widely used in aircrafts, drones or by pilots? Airsence is integrated in Fly app. I know that not so many small planes has ADS-B out but I still find better to enable it in Europe if the HW is included in 3W units, even with limited functionality that I'm aware of.

There is very little to be done to initiate remote ID . There is very limited safety in Airsense. People flying drones can see Manned Aircraft for many miles and if drone users fly within the rules they should never have any problems. But on the other hand if manned aircraft enter zones that drones fly in, this can be a problem for them, they have no way of knowing if they’re drones flying in this space, but a mobile phone with a simple app can inform them if they’re drones flying in this space, so they know to be aware . So Airsense does not give any reassurance to manned craft but Remote ID does, also ATC can see if craft has entered controlled airspace, if its commercial with permission or if its flying illegal they can inform Manned Aircraft if there is likely to be a problem.

Remote ID also has great advantages for commercial drone flying in controlled airspace, it allows ATC to know when you begin flying and when you’ve finished flying. Airsense is very limited and if everything is ok it should be implemented, But my guess is Airsense will not be very useful, i can get much of the information on free apps.

Yes i accept dji have disarmed Air Sense, But I find it hard to believe they would do this for absolute no gain and ensure they gain a major headache for doing it. So my point is simple, I think that the powers that be were responsible for the blocking of Air sense, for whatever reason I don’t know. I’m not saying its not there, I’m just saying it could be, its not worth the hassel for dji to allow it while authorities may be objecting to it.

Thinking about this some more, the only thing that makes sense why they would disable it and also not offer a reason why they're doing it is that they (or their resellers) still have 1N models in stock around the world and they don't want people to start chasing 3W models and returning the 1Ns.If it was anything else, something related to some legal issues, I see no reason why they wouldn't make this public.

What about AirSense in Europe ? In fact, i'm not the first to verify that AirSense is included in Mavic Air 2 ! I bought mavic Air 2 in last november 2020 and received it in december from DJI Shop online. I tried many times to use Fake GPS apps on Huawei P30 Pro. Nothing happened in DJI Fly ! No menu with choice of Airsense.
I tried today with my Iphone changing GPS (I'm in south of France) with MacApp "iMyFone AnyTo" and succeded to be near Las Vegas (in desert area). I used my iphone with that place with my Mavic Air 2 and for the forst time, i got a message to validate to use AirSense and AirSense active choice has appeared !!
Model of my MAVIC Air 2 is MA2UE3W. So, do not worry about AirSense. It will be active as soon as DJI would like it to be active. Component is really included. See my photos about it :





Wait and see !
