DJI could not confirm or deny that they masked this drone to avoid the US ban

DJI barely sells in the United States. Shelves are bare; Sellers increase prices. It seems that the unofficial ban of the US Customs is black. But on Amazon you can now buy a drone that is AA Dead Ringer for DJI Mini 4 Pro – Skyrover X1 – for a reasonable $ 758. And that’s probably because it happened to DJI.

There is evidence that suggests that it, and DJI has not been able to deny that Skyrover X1 was a DJI product one day after we reached out.

As mentioned DronexlSecurity scientists have discovered that the Skyrover X1 has not only the same specifications, functions and incredibly similar application to its DJI drones, but also used its own DJI online infrastructure.

Another security consultant, Jon Sawyer, discovered Skyrover even uses the same encryption keys as DJI, and that the company that created the application only did the basic work to try to hide its tracks, and renamed the “DJI” cases to “XXX” or “UAV”.

But that’s not the only shady thing: someone doesn’t want you to know that this drone is a dji-alike. After the Airfotographies of the Drone Reviewers took the insertion in the comments of his reviews Skyrover X1 for the fact that he did not come to the obvious similarity of DJI, he revealed that he revealed that he agreed Not to mention any other drone brands in the video to ensure the inspection unit. “That was their only provision,” he wrote.

It seems that abertography has invented about it; Now has two other videos that are directly compared to Mini 4 Pro and call it “suspiciously similar”:

Note that the drone is not exactly The same thing. Aberfotography says there is a slight difference with the camera and told the viewers that Skyrover is not suitable for the existing DJI batteries and will not join the existing DJI controller. Shortly before we published this story, he released another video to get to all different.

We put DJI all day in conflict or denial, whether the Skyrover X1 is a DJI product, but the company could not fulfill this term. “I still look at it with the headquarters team,” spokesman Regina Linls Verge.

If Skyrover X1 is created or licensed DJI, it would not be the first time. US lawmakers are already aware of – and some are angry – that DJI has found a seeming Lophol by finding American society, Anzu Robotics to make a Mavic 3 clone called Raptor and Hong Kong, Cogito, Spectacle and Spectacles.

According to FCC Filings, the Skyrover X1 seemed to have seemed to SZ Knowact in Malaysia. Malaysia is currently a popular destination for Chinese society to escape the worst of the American tariffs, although it can also have a high rate in August.

Skyrover presents SZ KNOWACT as its developer in the Apple App Store, and as Konrad ItURbe shows, its website is almost identical to the one that Cogito provides for its own DJI clones.

The US government must formally disable DJI drones, but de facto the ban will automatically run until December, if the “relevant National Security Agency” cannot publicly declare that its product “does not pose an unacceptable risk to the United States”. The US Sales Department Filully launched an investigation to find out July 1.

Here’s my conversation with DJI about what happens if the ban goes.

Meanwhile, DJI said that American customs block Mary of their drones before the United States agreement. The protection of US customs and borders does not deny it: we asked repeatedly, but the agency claims that it cannot say that. Here is the Stemment via the spokesperson of CBP Trish DrishColl:

CBP is not authorized to publish specific information about society or commodities under various federal laws and internal police, but not only the Business Mystery Act (18 USC 1905), and some information that may respond to your request can also publish CBP.
