Looking for some help interpreting my flight log from yesterday. Flew in a new area about three hours drive from where I normally fly. I launched from the case which I had placed on a long wooden dock. Not sure if there was metal in the dock so I launched from the case to avoid any potential compass problems.
At 3m56s into the flight I lost contact with the aircraft (aircraft disconnected) at a distance of 1942 feet and altitude of 250 feet. Here is where I need help. I thought that if the aircraft disconnects it will automatically initiate RTH and head home. In this case the aircraft hovered. I started to get a little concerned and since I was at lake level, I decided to head up to see if I could get a better signal. It was only when I got to higher ground and I was able to get signal again the aircraft moved and initiated GO Home. I looked at the video which I was recording and it just hovered for five minutes.
I haven't changed the RTH behavior to Hover and it did eventually come back to me but I don't understand why it waited so long. Here is the log:

Can anyone help me understand this or is it just an anomaly?
