I haven't actually ridden the mavic in on autolanding, but based on the notes here I'm getting more and more hesitant to push it below 10%. Frankly, I'd rather get the aircraft back in good working order than post a record, or any new distance as a PR.
Nate and Db - you guys are both on .400 firmware?? WhAt version of dji go 4?
As db said, this characteristic is not normal of other dji aircraft, I'm very used to flying below 5% and autolanding being a tad squirrelly but uncontrollable is just crazy. Heck, i flew my p3 past 0% for 3 minutes a few times, main battery shut off, ran on externals and lost all telemetry .. but that aircraft flew straight and reponded properly to controls. Well, except the one time I flew into a tree .. but in fairness, it was wayy foggy out and when main battery died, I lost camera connection.
This seems to be an issue with how the mavic is routing amps to the motors as part of the software. If I encountered this on a stock mavic, I'd open a case with dji. If it's software, someone has to report it to have it addressed. I think it's the flight controller programming.
