lost my mavic 2 pro yesterday night. had visual on the lights on return back. at maybe slightly more than 1km. it disappeared together with connection. there is a split second of it the system initiating return and i pressed ok and what was weird is remote n my ios go 4 app shows near to full bar reception but zero for visual, however i could not control anything. feels like both got hang. i was sitting on my motorcycle, so i rode around n towards the last known spot and returning to home , it never got connected back again, nor did it returned. could not even find the damn drone again.
Usually i fly with my crystalsky, yesterday decided to use my iphone x, not sure if its the phone , the drone or just me.
Sorry to hear about your loss.
If you had a clear GPS lock, and obstacle avoidance turned on, the drone would have returned if there was enough battery power. DJI equipment is very reliable on this count. Doesn't matter what device you use unless you inadvertently cancelled RTH.
If you are in Singapore, unless you were on elevated ground with clear line of sight, or at the coast, it is pretty unsafe to fly 1+km away from the home point.
