Pre-orders have been removed in the US amid the DJI ban, as the<br \/>US government is cracking down on products and companies that they believe are using a backdoor to disguise DJI technology.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Screenshot-2026-07-28-at-10.27.23-740x524.jpg\" alt=\"Screenshot 2026 07 28 at 10 27 23\" class=\"wp-image-316609\"  \/>Image credit: XTRA<\/p>\n<p>Here is what Xtra Technology is saying:<\/p>\n<p>Early Bird Reservations Are Paused<\/p>\n<p>After reviewing our product and launch readiness, XTRA has decided to pause the current Early Bird program. Because we are unable to confirm a reliable launch timeline at this stage, we do not believe customers\u2019 funds should remain on hold.<\/p>\n<p>We will therefore issue a full refund of the amount paid for every eligible, unrefunded Early Bird order to the original payment method. No action is required from customers. Once processed, refunds may take approximately 5\u201310 business days to appear, depending on the payment provider or financial institution.<\/p>\n<p>We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused by the pause of the Early Bird program. As a token of our appreciation for your understanding and early support, each eligible customer will also receive a single-use 10% courtesy discount code. The code will be valid for 30 days from issuance and may be used toward eligible products currently available on the official XTRA Store. The 10% courtesy discount code will be issued within 1\u20132 business days after the eligible Early Bird order has been cancelled. Customers will receive the code in a separate email.<\/p>\n<p>Following the refund, the original $60 launch coupon and Priority Express Shipping benefit associated with the Early Bird program will no longer be issued.<\/p>\n<p>We have not announced a new product launch timeline at this time. Further information will be shared separately once the relevant plans are confirmed.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for your early support and understanding.<\/p>\n<p>XTRA has not made a final announcement regarding future product availability, nor have they announced a new product launch timeline at this time. The company has said that further information will be shared separately once the relevant plans are confirmed.<\/p>\n<p>DJI and some other foreign-made drones\u00a0were placed on the FCC Covered List back in December 2025. While this initially affected drones, it has since carried over to certain other DJI products, including the Osmo Pocket 4P. Back in March, the FCC expanded its investigations into companies such as XTRA, claiming that some of their products contain the same technology that has been banned from sale in the US. <\/p>\n<p>This came after the website, The Verge, published an article in 2025 alleging that XTRA sold exact hardware copies of certain communications and video surveillance equipment listed in Section 1709 of the FY25 NDAA\u2014equipment that would become covered communications equipment in December when the Commission updated the Covered List.30 The story<br \/>also alleged that code from this now-covered equipment was copied and pasted into XTRA devices.<\/p>\n<p>The Bureau then opened an investigation and issued an LOI to XTRA on March 30, 2026. The LOI stated the Bureau was investigating potential violations of 47 U.S.C. \u00a7 302a (\u201cDevices which interfere with radio reception\u201d) and 47 CFR parts 1 and 2 (\u201cPractice and Procedure\u201d and \u201cFrequency allocations and radio treaty matters; General rules and regulations\u201d) and requested information to determine whether XTRA\u2019s equipment was disguised covered equipment. Specifically, the LOI stated that the Bureau was investigating \u201cwhether certain RF equipment marketed by XTRA share characteristics with models\u201d of devices listed in Section 1709.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On July 10th, the FCC proposed a penalty of $25,000 USD against XTRA Technology.<\/p>\n<p>Companies that the FCC has been investigating and fined for failing to respond to requests include:<\/p>\n<p>Xtra TechnologySpatial HoverFikaxo TechnologyCogito TechLyno DynamicsWaveGo TechSkyhigh Tech<\/p>\n<p>      <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Image ofMatthewAllard ACS\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/1785211569_329_09033040ce29bedfb0306dbffaba1408.jpeg\"  class=\"avatar avatar-128 photo is-rounded\" height=\"128\" width=\"128\"\/><\/p>\n<p>      <a class=\"entry--author-box--name\" href=\"https:\/\/www.newsshooter.com\/author\/matthew-allard\/\" rel=\"author nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n        By Matthew Allard ACS<br \/>\n              <\/a><\/p>\n<p>Matthew Allard is a multi-award-winning, ACS accredited freelance Director of Photography with over 35 years&#8217; of experience working in more than 50 countries around the world.<\/p>\n<p>He is the Editor of Newsshooter.com and has been writing on the site since 2010.<\/p>\n<p>Matthew has won 51 ACS Awards, including six prestigious Golden Tripods.
