As the majority of public safety departments fly DJI drones, the following article is provided from The Drone Girl (one of the most informed drone industry leaders) for your situational awareness. BE SURE TO CHECK WITH YOUR DEALER ON THIS ISSUE AS THEY CAN SPEAK TO THIS DIRECTLY.
In the state of Arkansas where I live and work, our state just passed a law that we can not use city, county or state funds to purchase drones from certain foreign countries and of course DJI is now banded from any future purchase. As of September 2027, it will be illegal to operate from the same countries and of course, DJI is included. We will have to change out our entire fleet.
