The rotors of the Avata do not turn off anymore. When I try to land the drone just jumps from the ground. I even tried to grab it and turn it upside down, but this did also not turn the motors off. I had to unplug the battery while the drone was going crazy. Is there a way to reset the drone?

Hi, mr. marco. Thank you for reaching out, and we're sorry to read about the difficulties you encountered with your DJI Avata. We want to help you investigate such behavior. We sent you a PM to gather some important details. Kindly respond whenever you're available. Thank you.

I had this happen once using the FPV controller. Turning the controller off is what finally caused the motors to stop. Seems to be a rare occurrence, but the fact that there doesn't seem to be another way to force a shutdown is concerning.

I will try that with the controller as well, thank you. I catched the drone and tried to unplug the battery while it was still runnung and cut myself pretty bad...
