Not sure what happened. It was a clear day and no signal issues came up that I noticed. My MA was about 1000ft away, so I wasn't pushing it too hard. All of a sudden my app went dark and I lost signal. At that point I figured it had dropped into the ocean or possible onto the beach. I started walking to the last place I saw it near a lifeguard tower. All of sudden the sweet sound of a buzzing wasps comes from up above me...I had to turn around and run back to the takeoff point. I had not control whatsoever, but it did it's thing and landed safely. Whew.
