Global drone market estimated to reach $14 billion over next decade: study

WASHINGTON - The worldwide non-military drone market, dominated by manufacturers in China, will triple in size to $14.3 billion in sales over the next decade, a study released on Wednesday said, even as U.S. officials warn of national security risks.

The report comes amid increased security concerns from the United States and private U.S. companies that Beijing could access sensitive data and footage collected by Chinese-made drones. In May the Department of Homeland Security warned U.S. firms of the risks to company data from Chinese-made drones, according to a notice reviewed by Reuters.

DJI customers have"full and complete" control of their data, said spokesman Michael Oldenburg in a phone interview.
