Crap! sorry to hear that!
Did you actually lose signal? Is that where the log ends?
If u did not lose signal all the way, the poor thing could have hovered there, till it autolanded... Although, smart RTH should have pushed it back to you, at least attempt!
Did you attempt to initiate RTHY from the radio itself?! When uncertain, do that, and also climb - well, that's too late for you unfortunately... GPS looks fine all the way to the end, signal was a bit low there. As far as the wind, according to the app it was a significant wind, so the drone would have hard time not being blown to the South.. Still if RTHing, I'd expect it to attempt going west, but being blown away south it would probably go south west, not north west, as needed.
04m 30s 1637.8 ft 5,000 ft 33 <- last reported "snapshot" of data... 5000ft should not be too bad, but how about altitude? 1638ft? Would you have cleared everything there? Last part of FPV footage on your phone/tablet, could tell you at least partially, if you were well above land/trees. I would definitely say search at the last known position and around there, but man.. in such a covered area that could be hard, but you got a starting point at least! If not there, look South, South West from there first...
You WERE recording video, right?
Anyhow, i wish you luck! You gonna need it, but then again, you may already have 1 or 2 locals willing to help you!
Your GPS and compass look happy all the way while recorded....
E 03m 57s 1638.1 ft 4,512 ft Warning Warning:Max Flight Altitude Reached. Adjust in Main Controller Settings if necessary
I guess you could not climb anymore from here... so make sure u check a TOPO of the place, confirm what's the altitude of the land, and guess on the trees.... One advantage of having an actual crash - you could be ExACTLY where the logs say you are... in the tree or on land below....
These are NOT large deviations on the battery, but certainly check overall stats on your battery.. Depending on what you find (esp. if you find the craft and it's flight logs) that could be possibly6 something to help you with getting free or discounted help from DJI....
Well, keep us posted! I do not know the extend of how you feel, but when I did experience signal loss and the sucker did not return home in a minute.. well, i had some, quite negative feelings... so I do feel your pain to a point!
