Applying Murphy’s rule of optimism suggests it’s orobabky dead centre in the dam after the green line, or the deepest section...
There really tall, I watched untill I heard it crash ,I flew site but not exact spot or path,I believe it's in a treeHow tall are those trees, your were 185' close to where it went missing, it went missing at 195' shows at full ahead. Had you lost sight it near 2 mins to 2 mins 30 secs?
@Fly Dawg, @sar104, or few others well give you some more information.
If you got time, maybe upload another log from earlier, specially if you flew in the same place and or flew over the same PM's (Phantom Magnets)
Good luck, been there.....

Tried to calibrate compass standing a cement pad. Must have been filled with rebar. Would not calibrate.Where did you do your compass dance? Any chance you managed to get a bad calibration due to the environment (iron/steel in proximity).
Once you get a good compass calibration it’s probably best to keep it unless the app asks you to re-calibrate.

Oh not want to hear that,,,stick at my friend I'm sure you will find it,don't give up yet,,if I could I give you my p3s but only phantom I have left that work then I have no life either (hobbie) ,mayby a bit of wind will help bring it down,some drones have worked after bit of rain so fingers arms and legs crossed that you will find it,,stick at itsearched glassed/binoculared every tree,can not find.started raining gave up drove home 2 hr drive. was fun, no idea why it did what it did,cant believe I cant find, im out of hobby it was fun

Then use it to look at those treetops from above.Since you still have the r/c, chargers, etc from the lost bird, you may want to consider getting a refurb P3 from DJI or one of their approved vendors. They come with a full warranty also, so you should be back in the air quickly.
Just a suggestion. Good luck[emoji106]

I know losing a drone sucks big time. I thought I lost mine in a river doing some practice flights around a bridge. After crashing I searched for like 45 min through a bunch of riverbed marsh. I gave up and started heading home. I was trying to think of what I would tell and show people and then it dawned on me to look at the video. Thank God I was recording when it crashed. After studying landmarks and 2 hrs of crawling through more riverbed marsh, I found my drone tied up in branches of a low tree. Burned out 3 of the 4 rotors. I realize 1 tree looks like all the trees and know your pain. Good luck! BTW, since then, I purchased insurance, and installed lights and a tracking device!Going to look tomorrow,we searched this area canopy is thick might be stuck in tree, app helped huge,flight record helped,going to try before huge rain comes in evening.wish me luck
