Sounds like your problem may have been caused by a malfunctioning gyroscope or accelerometer, doesn't sound like GPS to me.
tbenst Thanks for the response. I convinced you must be right. Spoke to a very knowledgeable bloke today at the shop where it was bought and he agrees. He also told me not to expect a reply to the mail I sent DJI as they are apparently notorious for not responding. I fitted the crash guards I purchased from him and have had 4 initially tentative flights today. Every test I could think of it has behaved perfectly, not a hiccup. The winds got up to a constant 15mph at ground level and the Phantom battled them to stay in hover with ease. By the fourth flight I was back over water again.
All I can do is keep my fingers crossed that it doesn't happen again. I must say I'd be gutted now if I lost mine as it certainly is a buzz flying it.
Hope you get yours back guys.
