As it stands, I've still got the controller, 4 props and the charger!I doubt they will be able to say anything for sure.. they can easily see that it wasnt YOU that flew it to oblivion. But what actually did is in the data on the bird. It would REALLY be interesting to see that data. The other great point, if you take the replacement, is if you find the crashed bird some day you will have some extra parts. If you take the refund, I've got dibs!

Leon, I've been following the post and trying to figure out what happened from the flight log. Very puzzling !
I did see that a second push of the home button occurred just before the data ended. Here's a view of the significant events along the flight path. It seems too much of a coincidence that the data ended just after the second home button push. Did you accidentally shut of the controller at that point ?

I think the worry here here is that by pressing the home button once it is activated it can be turned off by pressing the button a second time. Note that I have no idea if this was the case.
The drone was long gone by the time I would have done that. To be honest, I'm surprised that it shows a second RTH press on the log. I'd only noticed the single press once I realized something wasn't right.

Turning it off would have triggered an automatic RTH
Even if the Phantom ceased to exist, I would have thought the log file would continue recording. Puzzling that it stopped.
As for pushing RTH twice, it won't cancel it.
If correct, then the manual is confusing. On page 12, in the Smart RTH section, it clearly states that pressing the button again will cancel the function.
