MY GOD MAN, CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND THE REGISTRATION PROCESS????
I REGISTRATION COVERS 12,000,172,152 DRONES YOU OWN!!!!
WHY WOULD YOU "REGISTER" MORE THAN ONCE????????
Dude, why are you screaming?
A single user hobbyist registration covers the hobbyist for as many drones as he ownes.
However, the same is not true for commercial sUAS operation. For commercial, each drone must be registered, and @skyanchor did say commercial....

Small feeling of satisfaction when I am so totally right about what is wrong, yet a million others got sucked in.
They didn't get sucked in, they simply followed a Federal Regulation that has now been overturned.
No, they got sucked in...... some of us knew the "regulation" was invalid and wrong and we stood our ground. It's what thinking people with strong convictions do.
It's entirely your prerogative to put your own personal opinion above the written law on the assumption that it will be overturned, and that it will happen before you are prosecuted for breaking it. But if you expect most people to agree with you that you were being clever then you will be disappointed. And, if you do that frequently enough, you will pay the penalty.

It's not my "opinion" or an assumption on my part and I could care less if anyone agrees with me... I know the law and the limitations of government power. "Regulations" such as these overstep these boundaries and I would have welcomed some FAA bureaucrat to try to initiate a prosecution of fine on me.
It's called STANDING UP FOR ONE'S RIGHTS!
Wrestling with pigs guys...you know the rest.
Wait for it, wait, yes here we go:

I would like to see some sort of Federal guideline control program in place. The registration was a bare minimum. If there is no FAA enforcement of any guidelines, the thing I most fear is that each municipality will come up with their own rules. The easiest rule they can come up with is an outright ban. It only takes a couple of city council meetings where someone proposes a drone ban and if no one stands up to say it's a bad idea, it becomes local ordinance.
If there is some type of FAA regulation going on, at least we can say drones are covered under existing guidelines.

No - standing up for your rights would have been challenging the regulation in court, which is what others did, not ignoring the law and then blathering afterwards about how great you are when someone else takes care of it for you.
Kong,
You hit it on the head. MORE $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ for our over regulating, greedy government!!!!
totally agree. I have no problem with the $5 registration which I dutifully did. However, the over reaching 101 code was ridiculous.
The problem is that our equipment can easily get up into the patterns and the approach and departure lanes. If you know what you are doing then you can avoid those conflicts, but it's quite clear that many of the new breed of hobby pilots don't have a clue. At least this gives the airport operators some warning and the opportunity to advise on locations.
I think it's an appropriate requirement, especially since you can come to a standing agreement with many airports if your flights are clearly never going to cause traffic conflicts.
