If you land manually and then lose signal, your Mavic will take off again and try to RTH?!

Does automatic RTH engage after landing?  Or did the guy below fail to stop his props or something?
He says he lost his Mavic when it tried to return on insufficienct battery (watch from 8m23s)...

Can you you provide a bit more context? By any chance are you talking about this?

But to answer what I think is your question, no, the Mavic will not take off and return to home if its connection to the remote control is lost after it lands. Based on the comments in the thread I linked to above, it appears that what happened is that the connection was lost before the aircraft actually landed, and signal loss definitely can trigger RTH (assuming it's configured that way).

I think he's talking about Ian's video from last month; 8:23 is around the time he mentioned the RTH being triggered by signal loss.

Hmmm ... this is showing up as a new post on my screen without mentioning a previous incident. Thanks for the clarification.
