Goes both ways...! Skydio faces Chinese ban: In a public letter, drone startup Skydio told its customers that after selling its hardware to the National Fire Agency of Taiwan, China sanctioned its operations. That means the company will face a battery shortage for some months, leading it to reduce the number of batteries it places in each drone. However, the startup already had its manufacturing based in the United States and was diversifying its supplier network. Still, the company said that its plight is a “clarifying moment for the drone industry,” erasing any doubt that “the Chinese government will use supply chains as a weapon to advance their interests over ours.” skydio.com/blog/chinas-sa.. #A Glance of China 行摄中国

China's Sanctions on Skydio

Earlier today I sent this note to our customers. Because this is a critical topic for the drone industry and for our national security, I'm sharing it here publicly as well.
