Where is the ban of cheap motors, escs, cameras, radios from aliexpress? How does this affect hobby drone market at all?
- lazide 9mo agoBased on the article, it says it also bans motors, controllers, etc. pretty much all major parts.
- bethekidyouwant 9mo agoWow, the title of the article really buries the lead as this is a much bigger deal than banning new versions of fully assembled drones made by a Chinese company. I can’t even think of another country that makes 4S Lipo batteries or the motors or the ESC’s or the VTX or the GPS module..
- lazide 9mo agoYup, it essentially defacto bans civilian drones - unless something pretty major changes with domestic manufacturing anyway.
- bethekidyouwant 9mo agoNo, I imagine that they will start assembling the pcbs in Vietnam from Chinese chips
- lazide 9mo agoWon’t help them since the Vietnamese chips will likely be similarly banned.
