US made drones can't compete? I don't know what you're flying but many, many US made drones work flawlessly everyday in commercial and industrial settings. Everything from custom, job specific firmware, arrays of any sensor you want/need, autonomy. I'd be curious to know if you're a recreational pilot or you fly for a living, no flame, I'm just curious about what lens you're looking at it through.

Quick question. When I fly my avata 2 I never connected to the app. I just turn it on and start flying it. So right now I’ve had mine for about 36 days and it shows zero flight record on it. I just looked at the app while watching this and it says starting June 12 about the flight record data so should I be flying the drone connected to the app or just keep flying it as is and will honor my DJI care insurance if I do wreck and I’m not connected to the app? Thanks for making this video. Looking forward to your answer.

I tried skipping an update the first week I had the Avata 2. After flying I transferred some video off my drone then got ready to take off again. This was not an aircraft firmware update, it was simply a DJI fly app update. When I tried to take off I was grounded due to a "Remote ID Error" and the drone would not start. I was forced to update the fly app on my phone in order to get back in the air.

What’s the deal with DJI U.S.? Did a real quick check about DJI and there’s a DJI that’s listed in California. Let’s try not to get all doom and gloom right away, a company like DJI which realizes that they may be affected by this globally. What should be done is DJI USA should have an oversight committee for what can be done to blanket the security protocols needed to eliminate possible security threats. We shouldn’t have to find out that our equipment gets bricked or something like getting our drones lost due to program and security protocols being implemented. Maybe DJI China has to provide programs to become open source and possibly even being built here instead of overseas.

I have never owned a drone, and just want something that does not already have a camera built in or any fancy stuff.

I understand the concerns, but I'll guarantee you a DJI ban will expand across other drone hobby manufacturers eventually.

The vast majority of politicians are only in the business of politics for one of two reasons. They are looking for their 15 minutes of fame... or, they have an opportunity to make a buttload of money because of connections to the business / industrial / financial leaders that they can pander to and line their pockets. I don't know what Stefanik's intentions are but, I'm sure it's one or the other...

It does not seem strange at all to me that a Republican is voting against the freedom of commerce and the freedom of choice for consumers in favor of protecting the interests of companies that engage in lobbying. Protectionist Trade Policies Restrictions on Technology Imports (e.g., Huawei) Support for Local Content Requirements These actions often lead to higher prices for consumers, reduced availability of products, and can stifle innovation. These laws are frequently designed to protect the interests of companies that engage in lobbying, rather than genuinely enhancing economic security or benefiting the broader public.
