Maryland police are using drones from a Chinese company that were banned in four states::One Maryland officer told a local news station that they have searched for other manufacturers of drones and none live up to the quality of DJI.
California LEO and 107 pilot here. Just about every UAV program I know of has DJI products in their fleet. Our fleet is 100% DJI currently. The officer quoted is right, other companies can’t beat the price and quality of DJI drones.

Interesting that there’s more outrage at the UAVs being Chinese, than there is at the police using UAVs to spy on people.

I mean…if you think that UAVs will help police spy on you then you’re just paranoid. They don’t have time for that, and even if they did they would just be more blatant since they have that right.
