FCC Investigates Camera Companies for Using Banned DJI Technology

SUMMARY

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is investigating multiple companies, including Xtra, for potentially using technology banned under its DJI directive. These investigations stem from research suggesting hardware copies of DJI products. Several companies have been fined $25,000 for failing to respond to FCC requests for information, though no companies have yet been placed on the Covered List alongside DJI. The FCC's actions indicate a broader scrutiny of imported components, even if manufactured by different brands, that are linked to DJI's communications technology.
