I feel like crying like now!

[obiwan22]

I don't know what to do!!!! I was flying my mini storm launcher and its was flying excellent today. So there was little wind and it flew. I got it off course in my neighborhood and I was a angle where it crashed in my neighbor's house in the front. I looked there and couldn't find it. I looked everywhere and even in the bushes. I got the plane at walmart. Maybe I could return it there without the plane? lol I mean they don't check the inside of the box. It costed 20 dollars. I checked on the roof too. What should I do?

Do your neighbors have a dog? Are your neighbors fond of you? ;) Maybe you should put a tracking device on your planes so you always know where they are at. :D

[revjwb32]

go ask your neighbor to help you look sometimes fresh eyes help.

Sorry to hear about your loss. Now, buy a plane that takes video. Then launch that plane and do an expanding square search for it. That's what we'd do in the Navy. :) Oh, and tell your neighbor to keep an eye out for it.

If I keep reading stories like this, I MAY finally get around to putting a little sticker with my name and cell number on each of my planes. It could happen.

GOOD LUCK!

OK now to be serious. That is what i always do, i run the motors to help me find my planes especially my rolling fury on the snow. You cannot see it worth a darn, white on white.

I'm 16 and there was a dog that I'm afraid might of took it!!! There was a another dog there when I came running looking for it and he just looked at me but no plane. I will look for it again right now!!!

Run the motors as you walk around, maybe you will hear it?

That's how I found my Starscream when it flew over an apartment complex...
Of course, this was in my earlier days of piloting that plane :)

[aerosoardude]

Of course ;)

[laughinglizard]

I feel your plane (pain). I have lost one original AA that way, mine flew into a trailer park, never to be seen again. Running the motors is a good idea, BTW.

[obiwan22]

I tried that and asked the people there to look for it but no luck!

[skiesthelimit]

Well when the dog collapses and you see your neighbors carrying a big plastic bag, you will know where your plane went. Lipos are killers. But hopefully the dog did not eat it.

[aerosoardude]

Hopefully, the dog bit it on the sponson, VERY CAREFULLY, and brings it back to you, puts it down and wags its tail, that would be very nice :D

[sparx22]

Hope you find the plane young man. ;)

Does anyone put address labels or "reward if found call: 555- 1212" on their models?

I got one of those at Walmart today, but for $30.00 not $20.00! :censored:

[msnyder]

Yeah, now mod that puppy! Put some LEDs on it, that'll help you find it next time!
;-)

[sparx22]

Is it difficult to put led's on these planes?
I wouldn't know where to get the lights!
