Yesterday I got too distracted by a little crowd that gathered around me as I was flying my Mavic 2 Pro to realize that something really weird happened: after the drone has executed its perfect precision landing, it did not shut the propellers off.
I took me almost a minute to switch off the battery, all the while my fingers being just a couple of inches away from the props at full speed.
I guess I should have executed the \/ manoeuvre on the sticks instead of risking a minor injury to the fingers and potential damage to the props, but, as I said, I was too distracted, wasn't thinking straight.
Did this happen to anybody else?

Would the .DAT file tell you anything?

Where would I find it? It's not on the card, only dji.gis and a bunch of media files, including a few SCR and THM files, which I presume are content, not system, related. I also looked at the flight records on DJI GO, there was nothing special there: take off, fly/shoot, RTH, land...
