Anzu launches US-based licensed clone of DJI Mavic 3

>illegal for DJI drones to use U.S. communications infrastructure

aka prevent from phoning home, sounds surprisingly reasonable!

>Using his network, Warnas reached a licensing deal with DJI to manufacture the Raptor drones in Malaysia, using the core design and internal chipset of the DJI Mavic 3 platform. He could then import and sell the drones in the U.S. under the Anzu Robotics brand.

Upton Sinclair strikes hard here. You are still using Chinese chips and firmware.

>On the software side, Warnas signed a deal with U.S.-based Aloft AI (formerly Kittyhawk) to provide the flight control software on the controller.

What about the other part of the equation - drone radio firmware? Because it does still transmit unwanted things in sideband channels, for example Aeroscope https://github.com/proto17/dji_droneid
