If you post the recorded flight data, it might have enough information for someone to be able to give you a GPS location for where it crashed.
They could also find the explanation for the incident to help prevent similar things in future.

To get help, here's what you need to do:
Go to DJI Flight Log Viewer | Phantom Help
Follow the instructions there to upload your flight record from your phone or tablet.
That will give you a detailed report of the flight.
Come back and post a link to the report it gives you.
Or .. just post the txt file here.

MY DRONE DATA

The main problem was a yaw error which started to take effect at about 10 seconds as the drone climbed away from the launch spot.
The drone picked up speed without any corresponding joystick input and took off, flying uncontrollably.

It's hard to make sense of some of the data because the sensors are reporting false data.
But it appears that GPS was working for the while flight, but the flight controller was using GPS sometimes and ignoring it at other times.

The last GPS location data indicates the drone ending up at -30.63649 146.85340.

Red arrow indicates the end of the flight.

Yaw errors are picked up at power on when magnetic interference close to the drone deflects the compass, making it give false directional data.
The gyro sensor in the IMU, uses the false directional data for it's initial direction values.
When the drone climbs away from the magnetic interference, the compass returns to normal, but the gyro sensor can't and the conflicting direction data from the gyro and compass causes uncontrollable flight as you experienced.
