Could you add the relevant debug prints to the position flight task? (edited)

It's a feature listed in the preliminary release notes: https://github.com/PX4/Firmware/issues/14402 Search for "Horizontal velocity limit close to ground"

You can disable it by setting MPC_LAND_VEL_XY to a really high value e.g. 100.
