help locating my p4p please

You need to be a bit more specific than that. This will probably require the device flight logs. Give a better description, then see the link below and upload the flight data .txt log from your device. After uploading place a link back here to that and we can help you possibly.

Looks like it's in that tree. (Look up and whistle for it).

The one with the crash is: DJIFlightRecord_2018-07-05_[14-39-02

It's not in a tree - it was 390 ft AGL when the telemetry stopped:

If the disconnect were due to the aircraft/RC link disconnecting then it should have returned to the home point. The final recorded data line indicates that you went from full back elevator to centered in the final 0.1 s. There is a possibility that that maneuver dislodged the battery if it was not secured properly. The aircraft was less than 400 ft away at the end of the record - could you still see or hear it at that point?

I was hearing it as I was just going up straight to get high enough to get the entire property but then I looked at my iPad then it disconnected then lost control...

So the picture of the travel of the drone is where it crashed ?

So you didn't hear the motors stop, for example?

The image shows the final recorded location, 390 ft AGL and 80 ft south of the home point. There are no data in the log to show what happened after that. If it lost power then it would have crashed pretty much directly below that point - perhaps 20 ft further south. That looks like the most likely explanation based on the available data but I would have been more confident if you had said that you heard the motors stop.

Well yes I didn't hear it and then I heard some leaves chopping that's when I knew it crashed...

So I should go look at the location at the end of the yellow line ?

In that case yes. It should be 30 ft or so from the edge of the road where that crash barrier ends.
