In less than a month, drone giant DJI faces automatic bans on new sales in the US if a security audit is not completed. With the days ticking down to the December 23 deadline set in the National Defense Authorization Act passed last year, DJI has once again urged leaders to act – and has even suggested using American-made third-party apps for flight.
Last year, Congress passed the National Defense Authorization Act, which included a section requiring Chinese drone companies, including DJI and Autel, to pass a security audit or be automatically added to the FCC’s banned products list, which would effectively prevent the sale of new products in the US, including drones, as well as other products like action cameras and gimbals.
