    Another historic blow came on Dec. 22, 2025, when the Trump administration’s Federal Communications Commission announced that all new foreign-made drone models would heretofore be banned from being sold in the United States, on the basis of somewhat vaguely defined security concerns.

    I literally just bought a chinese drone off Amazon 2 weeks ago with no issues. So I doubt how much effect the above actually has. I’ll get right on that registration too… One of these days.

      It applies to UASs, which applies to aircraft’s. Aircraft’s are quite broad by legal definition I think…

      Can we spam register foam gliders as drones?
