Unusual Machines is launching the Fat Shark Aura FPV Camera, a high-performance analog drone camera designed for first-person view (FPV) drones and fully compliant with NDAA standards.

New NDAA-Compliant FPV Drone Camera Released

The Fat Shark Aura FPV Camera has allegedly already been adopted by a U.S.-based drone manufacturer, securing an initial order of over 1,000 units.

The new camera has also been submitted for consideration as a Blue UAS Framework component to demonstrate its compliance with federal standards and its readiness for deployment in both commercial and defense applications.

The company asserts that the Fat Shark Aura FPV Camera’s advanced feature set ensures a high-quality flying experience for both recreational and professional drone pilots.

Allan Evans, CEO of Unusual Machines, stated, “The Fat Shark Aura FPV Camera represents our first NDAA-compliant camera for the drone industry. We are excited that our work diversifying the supply chain is starting to impact almost every FPV drone component. We plan on continuing to develop and launch affordable products that meet the needs of the U.S. Drone ecosystem.”
