DJI sales in America.

[Max Headroom]

What are members views on the future of DJI in America, as the google search result below says DJI drones are not officially banned but they are being delayed and blocked, can you see a time when this will be lifted and you will once again be able to buy from DJI and get your drones repaired?

While there is no official ban, DJI drones are already extremely hard to find in the U.S. Many shipments are being delayed or blocked by U.S. customs, partly due to enforcement of the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) and increased scrutiny of Chinese tech imports. (DJI denies being in violation of the UFLPA.)

I think we can now say there is a drone ban bill officially before the US Congress (Rick Scott) which if signed by the President will ultimately ban Chinese drones in the US. Anyone who says drones won't be banned is simply being disingenuous because the bill does have a chance to pass and should not be ignored. Anyone who continues to believe the government is not coming for your drones (for whatever reason) and doesn't care about recreational flyers and their drones is in denial. Anyone who believes the bill will fail (like it always does) and we can just get back to normal and the government will give up and never try again (or will fail the next time as well) is naive.

That's right, the future isn't what it used to be; THIS is your new future. That is all. Frustrated.

Being from the UK i was unaware it had got so bad, i knew from reading threads here members were having issues with drones being blocked but i didn't know Trump is going for a total ban, fingers crossed it fails if it doesn't i am sure pilots will come up with innovative methods of getting their hands on DJI stuff in future.

I have always fancied a holiday in America

New DJI drones are essentially banned, for the most part. Didn't take legislation just a zealous Customs Agency and an administration looking for sound-bytes and stunts
