If you fly a drone or RC plane in the USA then as of 16 September 2023 then you will probably need to fit a broadcast remote ID module to it. DroneTag have come up with their 'Basic Solution' unit which is a pared-to-the-bone option but unless you buy it on special, it is almost exactly twice the price the FAA quoted as their expected figure for such things.
Hopefully I'll get my hands on one of these and check out whether the GPS antenna is good enough to allow it to double as a source of GPS for your flight controller and whether there are any "gotchas".
This is the Drone & Sundry livestream in which the developer speaks about the DroneTag BS unit:
