According to:

You must operate under AMA guideline to fly a drone recreationally in the USA. Does this mean DJI is condoning breaking the law in the USA with the "hand launch/catch" features?
Per the AMA rules:
“Hand-catch” landings are prohibited. Rather than landing them upon the ground, some operators prefer to hand catch their multi-rotors, either all of the time or under certain conditions. This is strictly forbidden under the AMA Safety Code. See AMA Safety Code paragraph B(7)) — “Under no circumstances may a pilot or other person touch an outdoor model aircraft in flight while it is still under power, except to divert it from striking an individual.”
