So I was taking some pictures and videos at night of some buildings and parking lots and things like that. I was on my 3rd and last battery and the last battery was a simple mission. Just fly to a good spot and timelapse the entire battery. Only a few minutes into the timelapse looking great, no errors or anything. Suddenly my iPad shows disconnected. I think "That's strange" so I close the app and reopen it with the same result. Okay, well my controller still shows connected and isn't yelling at me so I hit the RTH button. As soon as I do, I lose sight of the drone and my controller disconnects. Super weird. But I think "Even if my RTH didn't go through, the disconnect will initiate RTH". I wait to see if it returns but it never does. It's so strange because I was only around 1000ft away, the drone hadn't moved in the last 5 minutes, and it never returned even though it was at 350ft when it disconnected and that's well above any obstacles. The battery was at 58% when the iPad disconnected so it had PLENTY of battery to RTH. I searched the entire flight path for a couple of hours last night but plan to go back in the day and see if I can find it. Luckily I thought ahead and put my phone number on it so if it did so something weird and someone finds it, they have a way to contact me. I've attached the flight log to see if any of you guys have any ideas.
