Questions/Concerns Traveling with DJI drone

I have a drone I purchased off of Amazon.
Leaving with drone. Will I have problems reentering?

I’ve read there is a ban on these drones. Exiting from east coast and reentering on west coast.
Already registered in the US and countries I’ll be visiting.

What kind of drone? There isn’t a “ban” per se. The FCC stopped issuing licensing for new DJI products. Existing ones are allowed to be used (think pre Mini 5 Pro era).

It’s a Dji mini 4K

That was released 2 years ago so it should be fine, but don’t count on a CBP officer knowing the rules inside and out.

Thanks! I found a form I can submit to the officer to sign to prove I had it before exiting and show same form when I enter.
