No I didn't regain control and had a fly away with complete loss.
The damaging thing for me though was that the flight record says I descended it into the water at full speed from 21metres above. I didn't, I'm an experienced Phantom flyer so why would I do that? It says I pulled the left stick hard down for a full 5 seconds. Ever thought of doing this when flying at a low level over water. No? Me either. And I saw it fly away out to sea as I tried to regain control. Very strange and a bit like crashburn, I've had to buy a new set of trousers and beg for mercy at the wife's budget interrogation.
In discussions with DJI for the last 2 weeks but looks like we'll agree a satisfactory solution for me.....
I had the same issue about 2 weeks ago now, just after updating to the new firmware. I was flying along a small open river getting some footage, all of a sudden lost all video and my iPad was saying disconnected. I stopped moving and pressed return to home. Unfortunately when i pressed return to home it flew away out of sight and not in my direction. I'm now unable to locate the inspire.
I have contacted tech support but would love to know what solution you came to with them and some help would be much appreciated
