FCC plans to ban companies selling DJI products under other brands

The proposed ban includes re-shelled versions of old DJI products. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) wants to ban products from companies suspected to be selling rebranded and re-shelled DJI drones and cameras. Specifically, the agency is looking to prohibit the importation and marketing of products from Cogito, Fikaxo, Lyno Dynamics, Skyhigh Tech, Spatial Hover, SZ Knowact, WaveGo, Xtra and XAG, explaining that they pose an unacceptable risk to US national security. A week ago, the FCC only proposed slapping the companies with $25,000 fines for evading the agency's official inquiries on whether they're marketing products under the country's Covered List. In December 2025, the commission added all new foreign-made drones and components to that list, which is specifically for products that are prohibited from being imported into and sold in the United States due to national security concerns.
