I am sorry for your loss, you must get much more experience before going such distance . I dont know exactly what happened but Inexperienced Piolts always have a similar story.
Once again I am very sorry that you crashed, If you replace it please get more experience before traveling so far out of sight and learn what to do if you loose signal .
Did your device announce "The Home point has been recorded " when you took off ?
More than likely it was in Atti mode, You lost the Visual signal for whatever reason ( Maybe a loose cord from RC to Device ) Paniced and instead of trying to get the siganal back, you just set the RC down and went to the last site it was at. The aircraft was at the wim of Mother Nature and just crashed .
Instead in the future, switch back to GPS mode and engage the RTH Button. I would then keep an eye on the telemetry and see if it comes back.
Also when you loose it , you must try to keep contact with it for at least the whole flight time of up to 20 min.
Why were you in "Atti Mode " so far away?
