I was flying my P3P using litchi, didn't realize I was getting behind an obstacle. It was completely my fault. Height above home point was set at 500ft but I was flying over increasing terrain. I've gone on 3 separate hikes in the last week to the last known location.
The bird had 80+% battery life when signal was lost. It was perfect GPS signal and then nothing. RC and Litchi never said it was returning to home. Can't recall what color the RC light was when I was engaging the RTH button. We took my Dads P3P and flew a couple batteries skimming the area but it seems pretty clear that it didn't land when it lost signal.
It was a fairly open area that we think we would have spotted it if it just descended. I just now learned how to open a kml file from healthy drones which gives a new perspective on the height of the craft when I lost it.
I've also attached a screenshot of googles location history of my hikes, .kml and .csv files for anyone willing to take a look. Compressing a folder containing them all into a .zip file was the easiest way for me to attach.
I'm pretty much out of ideas and hope, any help or ideas would be appreciated
Thanks,
Nicolai
