Does the FAA have direct and unlimited access to our flight records that are collected/stored by/with DJI?

That is rumored but nothing definitive has been proven or stated.

No the FAA does not collect the data from DJI. How are they going to collect your data? If you sent your inspire 1 in for repairs it's very possible, but not tapping into your inspire 1. That would be hacking and illegal. I will tell you though that I had an upgrade occur on my inspire 1 without authorization. It went from 1.3 to 1.4. I never turn on my internet on the iPad but for some reason I decided to check something out on the internet and it did the update.

Is it possible DJI could? Sure... But the FAA has no legal right to access the records.

Surely they're only a warrant/law away from being able to demand them from companies like DJI, though, even if they don't have that power right now...
