US to ban Chinese made drones.

If they truly "set their sights on China-Made Tech", Walmart and my house will be empty. ;)
 
This horse has already bolted. Everything (just about) is made in China today.
 
Realistically, unless you want to destroy the hobby completely, the choice for most drone hobbyists is between buying a Chinese drone, or a non-Chinese branded drone assembled in Not-China with 90% Chinese components. ;)?

Seriously though, the paranoia and xenophobia would be amusing if it wasn't so potentially tragic for the destiny of the 21st century.

I repeat (from a previous thread on this theme), the Chinese want your $$$ yes... your land, women and freedom? nah...
 
The whole China Tech/mfg thing is relatively nuanced and there are elements of both security and fair trade practices, some of which overlap. It's impossible to tell what will take place economically, even in the short term as there is an election, which could unpredictably change any and every aspect of trade relations with China and many places in the world. We know that drones will be built. I'm trying to figure out a firewall strategy for my investments for the next 30-120 days. The market could become extremely volatile, especially after Nov 3, or could continue on the current trajectory, depending on the outcome of the election.
 
What happened to Japanese ingenuity and products?

Anyone remember when a Japanese product was considered cheaply made? It's even referenced in the movie Back to the Future.
 
If they ban items made in china all the ( Mod Removed Political remark)would be empty.
