He probably lost image transmission doing the orbit he was doing. So it looks like it was on its way back home and encountered the obstacle ..... See if i know there might be a chance i will loose signal even in the slightest i would have made my rth height higher then any obstacles in my flight path for that battery....next time op definitely make your rth height higher
I would suggest that during the orbit, the rig came between the aircraft and the pilot, thereby losing communication. The aircraft decided to return to home due to lack of control signal, and was stopped by the obstacle avoidance three times. In fairness, you would not expect to have to raise the RTH height when you are flying out to sea. An unusual circumstance, but one that worked out well when all the safety features came in to play.
At 00:14 you can see the aircraft has lost signal, as it turns slightly to face the home direction, which is directly behind the rig. The way home is straight through the rig, fortunately the obstacle avoidance took care of that.
