Notable that on October 27th, the recent DJI drones became generally available in the US for the first time. Previously DJI just wasn't sending them here, but suddenly they have. Now instead of tarriffs being the maybe reason, it's the US forbidding this incredible consumer device. https://www.theverge.com/news/807292/djis-not-for-us-drones-...

Another hit to US Farmers who rely on these drones heavily.

Best models to pickup before a ban?
