Hello, I lost a Phantom 4 RTK drone after the connected iPad shut off. The RC was still on (RC and iPad are separate). The drone flew an automatic mission and continued several minutes after contact loss to the iPad. In the end, however, automatic RTH failed. The GS Pro logs from the iPad are useless, they only show the last point of contact. I retrieved the RC .dat file and used ExtractDJI.exe to get 100+ small .dat files (1-10 MB in size). They are encrypted, even DatCon can’t read them out. DJI support isn’t helpful either. Do these .dat files contain possisble last GPS information where the drone went down and how to decrypt them? Thank you very much. Benjamin

While the DAT files may contain useful data, you’ll likely only be able to read them with DJI’s help.
I realize the TXT flight log is incomplete, but could you share that file? You can upload it here:
