Looks like the data is corrupted somehow.

Have seen this before, @sar104 did one like this not sure if it could be delat with.

I've had my MM since february only, it's also my first drone, i took it with me in Mexico during my vacation and had no trouble.

But recently had a fly away experience too a couple of weeks ago, fortunately i had just lift off did the set up for rth and starting recording video, went up a few feet and then all of a sudden it started going backward without being able to take control back, it banged against a metal post and crashed, no damage, i was relieved!

Tried to retrieve the log but had the same kind of text data as @Davidmito so I was wondering what could I use to be able to read it. And also, since this is on the SD card which is in the drone, what happens if you crash your drone and you can't recup it? Is there a way to find that log on your phone in the DJI Fly app?

It's normal for the .txt file to look unreadable.
Your flight data is probably perfect.
Post it and we'll see.

Mavic Flight Log Retrieval and Analysis Guide

With the introduction of the Mavic Mini there has been a noticeable uptick in the number of posts requesting help with lost or crashed aircraft.

Got this message trying to upload it :
Flight log_2020-04-05.csv

The uploaded file does not have an allowed extension. The following extensions are allowed: .zip, .txt, .pdf, .png, .jpg, .jpeg, .jpe, .gif, .dat
This is a file that i found on my SD card, is there somewhere else i can retrieve this flight log?
Also, you or someone else said that the auto-sync flight data should always be off? Isn't better to have them turned on?

Post the .txt file ... the one you think looks odd.

When you download the TXT file, you can go here . . .

. . . and upload that TXT from your computer, checking the "I'm not a Robot" box, and click upload.
What comes up is the flight is a fairly interesting way to see the general way, map, stick inputs, responses by the aircraft.

There are plenty of 'good' reports posted in the crash section threads.
Here's a normal one . . .

As sar104 mentions a couple of posts after yours, it's all in his analysis thread.

Yes there are files on the aircraft too, but the ones you want are on your device, hone ipad, tablet etc.

If you fly with your device these logs are generally there (DAT excluded after syncing), if you just have a quick fly with controller only, you won't have the files there of course.
