It's an old, well documented problem.
If you look at the shape of your propellor, looking from the blade-tip inwards towards the motor, they will most likely have been flattened and have lost their aerofoil shape and pitch.
This is probably due to the rear propellors being stored across the drone body and was common when the Mavic Mini was first launched and stored in the combo case in accordance with the instructions. The immediate solution is to change the flattened blades, if you change one blade on a motor CHANGE BOTH BLADES, they are a matched pair. (Probably for wieght and balance.)
There are various solutions concerning storage. I store my drone with the rear motor blades pointing forward and somewhat inward so that they end up under the gimbal. In the combo case I also cut away the forward shoulders of the recesses into which the rear motors 'fit', those forward shoulders tend to force the blades inwards towards one another.
I store the drone with the front motor blades positioned over their respective arms.
The reason this 'damage' causes the message is that the flattened blades lose their ability to produce lift and consequently the motors have to turn faster to produces the necessary lift, eventually the motors reach a maximum speed limit. In extreme cases this led to the drone performing an "uncommanded descent" and in some cases the drone was lost. An "uncommanded descent" caused by this can sometimes be halted by flying backwards as this shifts some of the load onto the front motor props but that is only a 'stop gap', "get you to safety" measure, the blades needed to be changed.
By the way, your thread is in the Air 2s section of the forum, "Hi i was flying my mavic mini and received a warning message PROPELLERS OVER SPEED and to land and check ....." | you could perhaps ask a mod to move it, I guess they can do that.
