Recently I heard about a new law coming into effect about banning DJI drones in the United States. Does anyone know any specifics about how this will affect current drone useres?

Too early to tell as the bill is still in the Senate.  The amendment that could effect DJI is attached to a must pass National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA).  Senate could pull the amendment off or modify it and then the NDAA would have to before a committee of both the House of Representatives and the Senate.  It doesn't seem like the Senate is currently in a hurry on this bill so it could be weeks or even a month before we see what is finally passed and then it will require the signature of the President to become law.

It's not sure yet what the effect will be.

Kind of reminds me of being back in the Navy.  "Hurry up, and wait".
