The potential ban of DJI drones in the United States is coming fast, and it has been big news.

We've done our part to try to keep you informed, as well as attempt to limit misinformation and fear lurking in user groups, influencer content, and even respected media outlets.

So much data to parse, and we likely won't know for sure what this all means to DJI fans, pilots, hobbyists, and the general drone market until the U.S. government actually hands down a decision. 

Below, we've compiled some of the DJI-related YouTube videos within the past three weeks to provide our community with the latest news.

The reports belong to the various influencers—in the spirit of providing an unfetered dialog, we haven't fact checked anyone—so keep in mind that some "news" may be opinions and speculation, and some data may be accurate and vital. Please do your own follow-up research to determine whether a datapoint is reliable in how it may relate to you personally, or the droning community in general.

Whether the DJI debacle races to a conclusion on December 23 of this year, or gets punted to another deadline for further study, absorbing the various info threads should be critical for all drone pilots—whether they currently fly American drones or drones made in China (or any other country).

We've tried to make it easy for you to see the most recent YouTube chatter on the subject...
