The UAS was being used to survey a church tower and was at a height of 40 m when it stopped responding to the pilot’s control inputs or the ‘Return Home’ button. Eventually the battery level reduced to 0% and the UAS descended onto the roof causing damage to the landing gear and camera. The cause of the control signal loss was not established.
