Rick Scott backs keeping DJI and Autel on FCC Covered List

US Senator Rick Scott urged the FCC to keep DJI and Autel Robotics on its Covered List, citing a classified Department of War report on national security risks. The FCC entered his letter into the record of the companies' pending challenges but issued no new restrictions.

• Scott cited a classified Pentagon report on risks posed by DJI and Autel
• DJI argues Congress did not adequately review its technology
• Autel filed a separate application for review of FCC actions
• The letter does not change rules for drones already owned
