@Def90, I think the .55lb thing had been changed or otherwise overruled even if it's still on their page. This was a thing like 2 years ago when it first happened ish. I thought I recall seeing that either a court, or another agency said essentially that some of what they were trying to regulate was outside their scope or some such. I don't fly, so I'm not any better than 50/50 on being sure that I remembered that correctly. Just happened to see a news blurb or link somewhere about it.
Initial registration requirement was overruled because the FAA was trying to just do a rule change outside of their allowed scope.
Then registration got added back in along with some budget bill somewhere.
