If the drone was behind your house at the third waypoint, you will obviously lose connection as the signal from your controller won't pass through anything solid. Litchi is designed to carry out the mission even when there is no signal between the RC and the drone....it sounds as if it performed quite normally.

You might have had 2.4g interference from WiFi. I always set RTH when done with a Litchi mission but then again, I fly missions which lose signal behind trees and keeps going to completion and then returns. Always fearful of losing signal and hovering until battery dies

im going to fly the same mission tomorrow and see if it happens again but this time put the rth so close that if i get los it wont be a problem.
btw...

i think litchi worked fine just los some how..
 
Lol yep... My litchi missions are always out of range. I lose signal for 6 mins but it always comes back. Just do a few more flights and you will see it performs great. Still makes my heart beat tho every time I do the same mission and have no signal lol but that's the buzz of the flight :)
