DJI challenges FCC drone import ban in Ninth Circuit

DJI has sued the FCC in the Ninth Circuit to overturn the agency’s Covered List ruling that blocks import of new foreign-made drones, claiming the FCC overstepped its authority, violated procedures, and denied constitutional rights; the ban—effective since December 2025—carries exemptions only for some non-Chinese drones and parts, while DJI says the policy harms US customers and its business, amid related DoD listing and ongoing product rumors.

US Drone Rules Leave DJI in Limbo: Existing Drones Sell, New Models Unclear

The FCC's Covered List blocks the import of new foreign-made drones (including DJI), but existing DJI models remain available and legal to fly; a Blue UAS exemption could loosen future restrictions, yet the fate of new US drone models depends on US‑China relations, so buying now may be prudent for those who need a drone while gray-market options remain risky and not recommended.

FCC Expands Foreign Drone Ban, Blocking Future DJI and Autel Models

The FCC added all foreign-made drones and critical components to its Covered List, meaning future DJI, Autel, and other brands’ models won’t receive FCC approval or US sales, though drones already approved remain legal to own and fly under FAA rules. Replacement parts for existing devices will still be available. For buyers, FCC-approved options like Neo 2, Mini 5 Pro, or Mavic 4 Pro are recommended when in stock; legal challenges may follow, but a reversal isn’t expected.

The action camera market, once dominated by GoPro, is now largely controlled by Chinese companies DJI and Insta360, which hold nearly 90% of the market share in Japan. GoPro's decline is attributed to its failed drone venture and slower innovation compared to its Chinese rivals, who continue to invest heavily in new technology. Despite this, the overall market is growing rapidly, offering potential for GoPro to rebound with new products in the future.
