I was flying near a park, sitting at a metal park bench. I noticed that my video feed was cutting out earlier than I would think, so I had it come home. It flew over my head and went about 200 yards further... then lost connection. I was still with VLOS, and was terrified that it wasn't responding. I was able to see my drone, even though the software on my iPad said it was disconnected. I wasn't getting any telemetry but could tell the drone was still responding to my commands. I flew the bird straight down to me and landed. I restarted my controller and it worked great. Wow... that was NOT fun.
