- DJI is suing the FCC over an import ban on foreign-made drones, effective since December 23, 2025.
- The FCC listed DJI on its Covered List, citing national security risks.
- DJI claims the FCC exceeded its authority and violated the Fifth Amendment.

- DJI argues it was not given a chance to address concerns, violating constitutional and federal law.
- The FCC justified the ban by citing potential threats from drones used by criminals and hostile actors.
