Yep - I lost it! :( I've been flying drones for 3 years and this is the first time I've lost one!

So I took off, I was getting amazing shots of the sunset, and I didn't realize I had went so far out! It started to return itself, however I wanted a few more shots - silly me. Working my way back, the battery hit critically low then decided to auto-land itself.
While it was doing this, the visual lagged on/off and kept telling me 'aircraft disconnected'. Anyway, it decided to land in a field where there are lots of bushes and trees.

Fastforward 24-hour and 3 searches, it's lost :( Here is my flight log - anyone care to share some expertise or tips? :)
 
According to your flight log, it landed around 54.45631111, -6.36488702. Plug those coordinates into the map app on your mobile phone and start searching around that location.
