These seem to have been out of control for some time with very high outputs and missing agency approvals...

More expensive digital could be the next step.

I haven't ordered from HK in probably 16 months.... partially due to shipping costs. Not sure about others.

Re: FCC Fines Hobbyking.... Analog FPV Transmitters
Hi Brian,
I placed an order with the HK USA warehouse about a month ago and my shipment (with some LiPos) arrived by FedEx with no issues. However their prices have increased, for some products significantly.
Here is a post by HK on their Facebook community page from a few hours ago:

Thanks for the update, Jeff! Those digital systems - I think from DJI - look really great but are expensive... $1170 + tax is not cheap at all!

Re: FCC Fines Hobbyking.... Analog FPV Transmitters
I received this e-mail tonight from HK. In their typical tongue-in-cheek style, they are announcing a sale to raise money to pay the fine...
