So yesterday evening I was flying like I normally do and I almost lost her. I was flying about 900-1000ft out, so it was a speck in the sky. I have no FPV, so it was all line of sight. I am pretty comfortable flying these distances since I do it all the time in this area around my house. This was about 12 minutes into the flight and as i was doing a wide turn I all of a sudden saw it drop and it went behind a tree line so I thought it went down and it was about 300ft up, so I knew it was probably toast. As soon as I saw it drop as a last ditch effort I flipped the switch to fail safe as I felt my heart in my throat. As I was on my knees looking down in shame and sadness I heard something way above me and I looked up and low and behold it had come home. See the video below of the whole thing. I have no clue what happened. Scared sh*tless now to fly far out, but at least she is safe and lives to fly another day.
Any one have any idea what happened???
