Beijing Bans Drone Sales and Flights as DJI Pulls All Products From Capital Stores - visiontimes.com

DJI confirmed a global launch event for May 7, 2026 at 12:00 UTC. Two products are on deck: the Osmo Mobile 8P global rollout (already on sale in China since April 21) and an expected Pocket 4 Pro reveal with dual-lens optics. Here's the complete preview, what we know about each product, and what US buyers should expect given the ongoing FCC ban fight.

Beijing banned all drone flights and sales within city limits—its entire territory now restricted airspace. China's DJI, the world's top drone maker, pulled every product from Beijing stores by May 1. Online mockery frames it as 'security theater for Xi's small gallbladder.' DJI: the rare company simultaneously sanctioned by both the US and its own government.
