Loaded up my Pulse XT40 this morning to take it flying with it's new YS 63 on the nose bought here on RCG. PRISTINE engine that I would rate a 9 on a scale of 1 to 10.

Jumped in the pickup and went to our field about 10 miles away. When I got there the tailgate had come open (I have a tonnue cover) and the fuse was gone with the new engine I hauled a** back home watching the road along the way and no plane to be found. Max time was no more than 15 minutes from the time I left home. Drove the road three more times looking..... I can only assume somebody picked it up.

Maybe that person will be nice and turn it in to the cops or something????? I did notify our local County Sheriff of the loss like it will make a difference.

In the meantime I'll watch Facebook, Craig's List and E bay for the plane as is or bits and pieces. OH, the wing stayed in the bed nice and cozy

Dang it I never even got to run that engine.:ma d:

I could give a crap about the fuse, I just want my engine and RX back
