Was the drone calling you 'Komrade' when it returned?

@Jimmers
I just read through this post, and lucky I missed the feud, and some stuff must have been deleted.
All along you had stated you uploaded your flight log from the Phantom, not the mobile. Then later you said your trying to convert the .dat file.
The .dat file would be the only flight log that I know of that would be on the Phantom?
Why is your HD log show for November 12th 2016.?

Hey Jimmers, I had been following your adventure on here yesterday and picked it up again today. I looked at your flight logs and wondered about your Post Office mystery. It appears the wind got hold of your bird and took it up and away. There have been all these questions about "Home Point". It looks like to me that is what the bird calls it when it gets to low battery and lands. In order to land it must tell itself the closest available spot is now the new "Home Point", set it, and then land.

Thought i would do one last flight for the day when all was going great until I was disconnected. I waited about 10 minutes for it to RTH but nothing, off I go for a walk to the last known location shown on the DJI app with RC in hopes it reconnects. Now I get worried as it's not where it said it was and no reconnect so I walk the path it was going, not to mention the sun is almost down and I have no flashlight. About an hour later I go home and try to figure something out. After an hour and a half of trying to figure out how to find it I get a call from a friend asking "did you lose your drone?". -ME- LOL YES, where did you see it? "It's on the front lawn at the post office!". Off I go to the post office and there it is, light flashing away in the dark. So my question is why would this have happened? Why did my P3S think this was it's home point? I didn't set it to here after it recorded it's own home point. Link to my flight record will be attached along with a screenshot of where my P3S landed. First time adding a flight log here so hopefully it works lol. Phantom Log Viewer - PhantomHelp.com

It could have at least told me what it was applying instead of doing it behind my back lol.
Q: Do you know what it means when the flag in front of the Post Office is at half mast?
A: They're accepting applications!
I agree. Unfortunately from looking at the frequency allocation charts at FCC we are just running out of bandwidth and have been for decades. Not to fault your idea, cause I agree, but the FCC can't just manufacture a frequency, every time some new industry or gadget needs to transmit and looks around for a band, as it is already in use.This is far too common an occurrence, in my view. There are problems that need addressing, seriously. I do not know where to start- maybe interference with RC from wifi networks and such like? I think these birds ought to have their own dedicated frequencies for control, especially with all the other rules and regs imposed on them by officialdom. It's about time, what do others think? Sharing 2.4 Ghz is plainly a bad idea, never mind the digital precautions, and 'impossibility' of mixing it with other signals. Or the electronics are not up to good enough quality to do so much, just to keep prices down to consumer levels. Modern car electronics and CANBUS systems are noteworthy failures too, for a lot of users. Remenber HAL9000!
I think we all are interested in how you bird held battery for over an hour to blink on the post office lawn.

Stunt to show amazon it is ready to go, pick me pick me.....
That's just what they want you to believe! They're very crafty, you know, those aliens!
Drag the DAT file off of there. I don't know where all the experts are but one of them can glean tons of info. Hopefully one of them will show up soon. This is intriguing and yet I'm sure there's an amazingly simple explanation.
Darn Slack, those crop circles are beginning to make sense now.good point. Check in the battery compartment for any probe grease residue as well. abductee rarely remembers he was gone for 2 hours.
