Aircraft disconnected after pressing RTH
First mission with DL today, and it was sort of successful. I did a safetyflight first:
1. Booted up drone
2. Booted up remote, started DL app.
3. Flew with DL for less then a minute. Pressed RTH, I flew home. I took control just before landing, and landed it manually.
Then I started the mapping mission, and the drone flew off. Had it I LOS the whole time and everything went flawlessly. When the DRONE battery was approaching 25% I thought I would change it and resume the mission. Hence I pressed and hold RTH for about 3 seconds, the Drone started flying home and angled its camera towards me. Then the app tells me: "Aircraft Disconnected" and my heart drops (Ive lost a Mavic Pro previously using PIX4D, never going back). Luckily the drone returns home as per DJI protocol, but the app still tells med "Aircraft Disconnected". NB I sat the phone (Samsung Galaxy) to Flight mode, I always do this before flights. Could the be connection issue with the USB? I forgot to check the cable to the phone after the drone landed. I did wait a couple of before turning off the drone after It landed, but it never connected. Ill send logs and anything you need if needed. Other than this, love the software!

Sounds like a hardware issue.
Got it. By hardware issue, do you mean the controller, drone, phone, or cable? Or any of the above? I am suspecting a faulty cable connection. Does this behavior happen if the app loses connection to the remote, i.e. the USB-cable is pulled?
Could be any of the above.
