I had a very unnerving experience yesterday. Drone was hovering taking pictures with about 32% battery left. About 45 feet from the controller. All of the sudden the screen displayed a message like "lost video stream connection". The controller became unresponsive and the drone appeared to go into RTH mode. Unfortunately, I was under tall trees and it caught 2 branches going up, but was able to right itself and keep ascending. Once it has ascended it moved horizontally before starting it's descent. Of course it caught a branch on the way down. Again it was able to right itself. While all this was happening I was able to restart the controller and reestablish connect to the aircraft. I was then able to land the aircraft under control. No apparent damage except for smudges on the props, but I'll probably replace just to be on the safe side. Any assistance in interpreting the logs would be appreciated. I can't see anything except for reestablishing connection to the controller. Details below:
