The fact the esp can transmit the rid protocol gives me hope. Much cheaper than off the shelf modules to start, and I could see a variation of this project which shows the required rid information but with some obfuscated or filtered information - a happy medium between compliance and noncompliance perhaps?

It's so dumb. Identification should only be accessable to authorities. People should only be able to report drones anonymously and the authorities can reveal the information and use their discretion whether there are any laws being broken. Civilians should not be able to have the info to be vigilantes. As for legitimacy when spoofing exists, if cryptography is used to sign beacon packets, legitimacy could be verified. But again, cryptography should also protect the privacy of the drone pilot from civilians. The pilot database should not be public either.

ADSB isn't on a frequency set aside for private use like Bluetooth and Wifi are. I am pretty sure the reason you can't spoof ADSB legally is that you can't broadcast legally on those frequencies unless it is for ADSB, which has been blessed by the FCC as well as the FAA. The FAA does not own the frequencies at play here and likely has over stepped their authority by co-opting them for air traffic control.

Transmitting “harmful interference” is illegal no matter what band it’s on. Playing with fire here, moreso than flying a drone without an ID.

Should definitely offset the GPS location if you're going to use a GPS module. Maybe even put it on a randomized loop countdown to change the offset every so often so your broadcast location jumps around.

This is a good first attempt. It can and should get a lot better than this. It would probably be worth them switching to ESP32 since they are more powerful. You can get ones with external antennas and there shouldn’t be any issues adding a GPS module to it. A potentially good board to use would be the XIAO with the ESP32C3. It has an external antenna and is tiny. If size isn’t important then any ESP32 board with external antenna would be a good option. ESP32 boards also have Bluetooth so you could create a phone app to alter settings like GPS coordinates, number of drones, etc if you wanted.

Desolder the resistor right before the antenna and solder an sma cable to the empty pcb slot next to old resistor. Solder shield to ground. Use AT command to bump wifi module power up to 100mw. Use a high gain antenna or a better cp antenna. You will get pretty decent range. You can always add a cheap power Amp to the sma then your antenna on the other end of the Amp. Will carry a half mile to a mile plus on just a dipole and set to 100mw.

I have used the ESP8266 and ESP32 boards for some IOT projects like temperature and humidity sensors. They are dev boards similar to Arduino boards. I'm pretty sure you can get a GPS module that would communicate with these boards. It's also possible to modify the code so that you could configure the GPS coordinates on a webpage, instead of having to recompile the program to change the coordinates. I would think it would be illegal to spoof ADS-B data, but it's just an unencrypted data packet, so it wouldn't be hard to do.

First of all, this is awesome. I'm an old guy, so i have already purchased the actual RID module ($140) But I'd love one of these because the park we fly at is filled with karens. Looks complicated for a guy that has difficulty resetting his microwave clock display. Someone needs to start selling testers/training devices so Karen can learn how to use the "drone finder app" on her phone. I bet Karen would pay $50 to help keep the world safe from fun. Nobody would ever use such a device to prevent Karen from her self-appointed duties. Probably important to be able to set altitude, speed and gps fence for the 'training drones' so the training app can ensure that Karen understands how to use her app.

It would be sick to have this installed on the EPS32 module from the HDZero googles, broadcasting some fake pilot positions evry time I turn them on.

First off this uses WiFi+Bluetooth and I believe we are for the most part free to broadcast anything we want in those bands as long as the transmit power level restrictions are followed. And keep in mind its not just WiFi and Bluetooth that operate in these frequencies, other devices such as microwaves, cordless phones, ZigBee are among the list of things that operate in this frequency ranges and this is by no means a complete list and the ability to regulate that is not up to the FAA but actually falls under the FCC.

Also if this is legal to do, whats to stop a non pilot from flashing a bunch of these and just simulating them for no reason? with no actual drone in the air or doing it around a pilot they don't know. This will again just muddy the waters so to speak. I could see attaching these to a terrestrial bound RC car and using a GPS to update the center of the fake drone swarm.

Couple things I learned today.... First, the github is updated, as is the code. It now has a WAP and web page where you can enter the Gps coordinates so you can do it "in the field". Second... I can't see it with my iPhone... Apps on the iPhone for getting "local" Remote ID that is broadcast with WiFi only, iPhone doesn't let an app have access. So, if you do use Remote ID, and want to have fewer people snooping, use one that only does WiFi type signals, and not Bluetooth.

Perhaps I am being Naive, but for 57 y/o me with my hanger of old planes, don't I just need to set this thing off at the house before Ieave? Enter the coordinates of where I'll be flying? Would a vpn be enough of a shield?

Some people are commenting that this is definitely illegal. I'm not convinced. I'm not a lawyer, and you're probably not a lawyer either, and the person whose video you're probably quoting when you say it's illegal -- he isn't a lawyer either, and he's not even a U.S. resident. So let's all just take a big step back and think about this. Could this be illegal under some "interfering with a system" law? Yup. If the government wants to screw you over, they will find some law to charge you with. Look at what happened to Aaron Swartz (link: bit.ly/3ronrJB). But it's not a given that using the RemoteID spoofer is illegal. Consider this: intentionally jamming RF signals is illegal, right? Yes. If I were to get a microwave oven and put it in the middle of a shopping mall and turn it on with the express intent of jamming wifi in the mall, that would be illegal. But if I was making a cup of tea with that same microwave oven, that would not be illegal, because my intent is to make a cup of tea, not to interfere with the system. So any law that hinges on intent to interfere requires the government to prove your intent. In addition, the Spoofer does not prevent the RemoteID system from working. Legitimate RemoteID broadcasts are still transmitted and received, and all RemoteID systems work correctly. What if I was to do the same thing by buying 15 DJI Avatas and plugging them all in so they broadcast RemoteID information? Would that be illegal? What if I was to do the same thing by hiring 15 friends to come hover the DJI Avatas in the area while I fly? Is that illegal? Obviously not, even though the effect is exactly the same as with this RemoteID spoofer. My point is that there is no law that requires RemoteID trasmissions to be sent only be an actual SUAS (as far as I know). Any way that the gov tries to make this illegal will hinge on their interpretation of your intent, and intent can be difficult to prove if you just keep your mouth shut. BUT if you get into a situation where you have to defend your intent against the gov, you're probably already in deep shit, so better to just not get in that situation in the first place.

The intent of broadcasting decoy signals is obviously to defeat the utility of RID for those who would use it. I can't imagine any ather interpretation.

So freaking cool, this was where I was hoping for to happen Great vid

What are you using to read the remote id?

I am a HAM radio guy and EE. The frequency spectrum is very carefully allocated by the FCC. Both Bluetooth and WiFi are open public parts of the spectrum. FAA can make all the rules they want but these are public frequencies. I see no way they can keep people from using them anyway they want, e.g. spoofing. I used to fly in a park in the Phoenix, AZ area. One side of it had a bunch of homes with WiFi in them. We would consistently get interference with video when flying near them. How is this different than this ESP32 project? The FAA is way out of it league on this. For another example of the FAA vs the FCC read up on the radio altimeter mess that full scale aviation is dealing with. The FAA tried force cell companies to abandon frequencies they had just paid big bucks for because of possible interference with poorly designed radio altimeters. After lots of posturing the FAA lost, the radio altimeters have to be updated to filter out the cell phone frequencies. This should have been the case from the start but the radio altimeter manufacturers wanted to save some $'s and did poor design. They got away with for a long time as no one was on the adjacent frequencies, now that has changed.

Oh, this is fun :D

Wait, so if I want to be compliant with the law, can I just strap this to my drone (after I figure out how to power it) and use this instead of the $100 option?

This seems like a good way to get the FCC involved in cracking down on FPV pilots too

Interfereing with a law enforcement investigation is the first of many charges you would be facing. I'm sure then the FAA would come up with some of their own and then call the FCC and then they would charge you with broadcast violations. You could end up in a heap of trouble.

Aircraft use something very different from remote ID. Remote ID uses 2.4 GHz the same as wifi or Bluetooth, ADS-B uses 1090 MHz. They are very different signals and phones aren’t able to read ADS-B but are able to read remote ID.

@@conorstewart2214 Thanks, I really appreciate your reply. But, just so that I understand this, remote ID will be another unit cluttering up the 2.4 GHz airways. If we all put these transmitters in our models, is there enough "room" in the 2.4 GHz band? Are we going to see interference between these units and our radio systems?

@@peterfynn hopefully it uses a slightly different range of frequencies to normal transmitters but I don't know. If it is just you flying alone then you probably won't have interference and big events will probably be done at one of the exempt zones so you wouldn't need a remote ID system.

Is there a limit to how many drones it will spoof? Im thinking 100 or 1000 would be a lot better...
