Here's what your flight data looks like: DJI Flight Log Viewer - PhantomHelp.com
It gives the location of your last data as : 40.07524 -74.040362 which is over water on the southern side of a groyne.
Here ...

At first I thought there's something odd in your data.
But perhaps you aren't using Mode 2 for your controller?

Yea everything was perfect it literally just **** off and I was only about 100 yards from my house. Do u think dji will claim responsibility for this ? Ever since I downloaded the new software it’s been glitching out

Correct. The following graph is a bit busy, but clearly shows that the controller was in mode 3.

It's credible that there was a disconnect, and while the battery had not reached the smart battery RTH value, the other factor was possibly the wind.



Looking at the wind map for the flight:



There is an offshore wind - not too strong to prevent the aircraft making headway, but possibly strong enough to mean that the FC's calculated RTH battery level was too low, and enough to prevent it getting home. I would look on the direct flight path from the last recorded location to home, starting at the home end - the red line in the map below:
