Yes, it does. Either you grabbed the wrong log file off of the drone or you grabbed the wrong drone. If you try to fly it and it won't link to your controller, you might want to put it back in front of the post office.
We're not sure it DID reset the home point. That's only a supposition at this point and a rather unlikely one in my opinion. I'm beginning to think more about the possibility that he grabbed someone else's Phantom by mistake. The other guy's at home, crying over a pile of Phantom parts saying, "How did it crash??? It should have landed at the home point, right in front of the post office!"i wish someone could tell me why it reset the homepoint...

Can you provide us with a legend for this? There are 3 marks on here (red circle, flag, bw circle). What does each mark indicate? Did you look at the end of the green line anyway?Thought i would do one last flight for the day when all was going great until I was disconnected. I waited about 10 minutes for it to RTH but nothing, off I go for a walk to the last known location shown on the DJI app with RC in hopes it reconnects. Now I get worried as it's not where it said it was and no reconnect so I walk the path it was going, not to mention the sun is almost down and I have no flashlight. About an hour later I go home and try to figure something out. After an hour and a half of trying to figure out how to find it I get a call from a friend asking "did you lose your drone?". -ME- LOL YES, where did you see it? "It's on the front lawn at the post office!". Off I go to the post office and there it is, light flashing away in the dark. So my question is why would this have happened? Why did my P3S think this was it's home point? I didn't set it to here after it recorded it's own home point. Link to my flight record will be attached along with a screenshot of where my P3S landed. First time adding a flight log here so hopefully it works lol. Phantom Log Viewer - PhantomHelp.com

Ah! But did you have to relink it after this "incident?" (Sorry)
That's just what they want you to believe! They're very crafty, you know, those aliens!The RC and drone wouldn't connect if it wasn't mine and the video on the card and the DJI go app has me on it in my back yard and the drone has my crash mark on it from my first flight. Haha it's mine.

Drag the DAT file off of there. I don't know where all the experts are but one of them can glean tons of info. Hopefully one of them will show up soon. This is intriguing and yet I'm sure there's an amazingly simple explanation.
I'm 25 minutes west of Barrie. Snow storms have been nasty out your way lately eh.?
15cm Snow storm Tuesday windy like 80km wind last night tomorrow plus 10 and 20mm of rain it's ridiculous
Have you been able to locate/download the LATEST log file from the drone? (not from the tablet)
If so, put a link to it, and we can start investigating. As to whether or not it's your drone, I assume you have some markings on it (such as your FAA #) to positively/definitely confirm it is yours. The guys on this thread are right ... ALL drones look the same
It's always set to RTH and I confirm all settings after any firmware update and IMU calibrations just to make sure. I've never had a problem with RTH before and for it to land where it did and not at the recorded home point is baffling.[/url]
Did you press rth when you lost connection?. If yes, what method did you use? Did you use the physical rth button on the rc or the one in the GO app?
If you used the GO app button, is it possible you reset the home point by accident? If yes, and you used an iPad without cellular, you don't have GPS, in which case the drone would set the home point to its present location. The home point was still my take off point, no change.
This scenario above is the only way I could imagine this happening.
Fly often, be safe

You may have answered this already but ... did you have LOS (line of sight) throughout until the moment t disconnected?
