The DroneBeacon db120 from BlueMark Innovations is a battery-powered, self-contained Remote ID transponder for mid-size multicopters. It has a GPS and GLONASS receiver, its own 600 mAh battery and an IP43 housing, weighs 25 g and needs no connection to the flight controller.
It transmits over Bluetooth and Wi-Fi on 2.4 GHz at 100 mW. Battery life is more than 3 hours, which covers several flights. IP43 means protection against spraying water and against foreign objects over 1 mm, not against immersion or jets of water; in rain the housing is only a limited reserve. At 25 g the module is a noticeable load on small drones and counts towards take-off weight.
An FAA declaration of conformity and an EU declaration of conformity are named. For the EU a module must transmit to ASD-STAN EN 4709-002; whether the declaration covers that standard is worth seeing before buying. Direct remote identification is mandatory on drones of classes C1, C2, C3, C5 and C6 and, in the specific category, since 01.01.2024. Of the NDAA requirements the device meets only Section 889.
When choosing, the built-in 600 mAh battery matters: it ages with cycles, run time drops in the cold, and a battery stored empty is damaged. Check charge level and operator registration number before each use. Because the transmitter is self-contained it can be moved between several drones, but then the serial number and its assignment to each flight have to be kept in view.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
