The Cube ID from CubePilot (Australia) is a Bluetooth Remote ID module for autopilots of the Cube family, offered as a serial or a CAN variant. It belongs to the class of built-in modules and is meant for mid-size multicopters running ArduPilot or PX4 on a Cube flight controller.

It transmits over Bluetooth 5.2, and the radio is based on the Nordic nRF52840. The module weighs 10 g including cable and antenna and measures 25 x 13.75 x 3.5 mm. As a built-in module it uses the power and position of the flight controller, so it needs neither a battery nor a GNSS receiver of its own; in return the Cube flight controller needs a valid GNSS signal, otherwise the identification cannot carry position and altitude correctly. FCC and CE are named as certifications.

In the EU a module must transmit to ASD-STAN EN 4709-002 and carry an EU declaration of conformity; US standards alone are not enough. The duty to run direct remote identification applies to classes C1, C2, C3, C5 and C6 and, in the specific category, since 01.01.2024; exempt are, among others, C0, C4, tethered drones and drones without a class placed on the market before 01.01.2024.

When choosing, the connection counts: the serial variant needs a free port, the CAN variant a CAN bus with DroneCAN support. Within the Cube ecosystem the firmware and the parameters for operator ID and serial number should match the version of ArduPilot or PX4. Securing the connectors matters on Cube builds, because loose connections are a typical source of faults.

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.
