Placement Guide
To comply with CAR 900.14 and ensure your label is legible from the ground:
- Select a flat, unobstructed area on the exterior of the drone.
- Avoid placing labels in areas prone to shadow or where they may be obscured during flight.
Pro Tip: Transport Canada inspectors may verify registration number visibility during any airspace audit. Ensure your label is firmly adhered on the drone body — not on a removable battery or component that can be detached before flight.
