You're a moron, the FCC is the Federal Communications Commission, an American agency that controls the radio spectrum in the US, it no jurisdiction here in Australia.
And it has no say over where you fly or how high, in the US that is the role of the FAA, the Federal Aviation Administration, again an American organisation which has no jurisdiction here in Australia. And is it the responsibility of DJI to control the levels of radio transmission, as their equipment has to comply with local laws in countries all over the world. This is why the aircraft itself determines the power transmission level.
Says the guy that didn't even bother to read my post, nor have any understanding of how DJI products work outside of countries not covered by CE / FCC / SRRC standards... I spoke with DJI via e-mail and when a country is not covered by CE, FCC or SRRC certification, DJI products sold in said country will instead use equipment that conforms to either CE or FCC standards.
For Australia, that means 2.4GHz DJI products will meet the CE guidelines, and 5.8GHz DJI products will meet the FCC guidelines.
I understand that no everybody is competent with reading, so let me break down the rest of my post...
The only times DJI should be actively policing drone operation is when required by local laws (which at the time of writing, is rarely the case), or for "high profile" / especially dangerous geographic areas (e.g. the White House, most types of airports, military bases, etc).
This is me saying that DJI should be placing restrictions on their products near airports... I know right - it's almost like I support their decision to block drones near airports, so that irresponsible idiots (like yourself, perhaps?) are not endangering the lives of everybody else!
As for me, I've never even been near an airport with a drone, let alone operated my drone near one... If hanging around airports is your thing, then I have no respect for you - but I know better.
And there is nothing in Australian legislation that compells DJI to place restrictions on their drones (since you're apparently such an expert on Australian legislation, please feel free to show me where I'm wrong...), however there is legislation on radio transmitters, which is not necessasarily related to restrictions being placed on drones.
