Drone auto land when lost connection.

this thing is awsome wow but i dont understand why the auto landing when i lost all connection. Im not 100% sure if i did this but if i access to the menu does the drone land by himself?

The recorded data does not show that you lost connection.
The app recorded the drone commence autolanding at 5:42.8 and continues recording the descent until 6:17.3.
You had contact the whole time but did nothing to cancel the autolanding.
At 1:42 in your video, you say that your first reaction was pressing RTH.
Did you use the screen button or the controller button when you pressed RTH?
If you pressed the screen button perhaps you pressed the autoland button which is right below RTH ???
 
Thats why the drone was doing nothing for few secs because i lost connection and wait to get connection back and nothing have been show
 
Why i will autoland when i know something weong could happen i try to film my home i will not land for funny reason. My wife was with me and she see like me when i lost everything.
 
Any way dji will take a look at this and i will do my own research if this happen on someone else.
 
Calm down fella. There must be something up with your settings that your RTH button has obviously auto landed. I’m sure the log experts may give you a clear reason.

Maybe. But I think Meta was saying your app was connected the whole time, so that would suggest the cable is ok. I’m not sure
 
Maybe its my cable who is faulty ?
Maybe my sd cards was too slow?
And maybe the moon is made of green cheese ... but none of those things would have caused your drone to autoland.
And you did not lose signal.
The data shows you had signal enough to record the whole autolanding.
It also shows you doing nothing about it and shows no initiating of RTH.

Losing signal doesn't trigger an autolanding unless you have set autoland as a Loss of Signal action.
But your Failsafe action was RTH.

You said it was your second flight.
If you want to keep your drone when they return it, I'd suggest doing your early flights where you can see the drone.
And learn a lot more about it before you send it off into the distance.
There are many things that can go wrong and you need to learn what they are and how to ensure they don't go wrong.

After seeing your video, I'd suggest going to a large, open area, well away from trees, buildings and cables and learn to bring the drone back to you and land it.
Then read the RTH section of the manualtwice and go out and do a lot of RTH practice, including turning off the controller to see what happens.
Its the stupid wired i will use a legit one.
Whatever you are trying to communicate here is a complete mystery.

If you want to lose your drone, why not send it miles away on the first flight after you've upgraded software due to problems with loss of signal? This guy was lucky it came back. Most owners would fly the drone in close range for an hour or so to make sure everything was working fine after the upgrade.
 
I see a very simple explanation. An inexperienced pilot who didn't quit know what he was doing presses autoland icon on the left hand side of the screen (phone or tablet) watches the drone descent with open mouth and zero logical reaction. I advise to watch a lot of tutorials.look through a manual for your drone and don't loose your cool when something unexpected is happening. The former will insure there will be only few unexpected things that might happen to you.
