5 Looks like a beautiful spot!!!! Glad you found it. I got my quad stuck at the very top of a 100+ foot tree thought I lost it Bc it wouldn’t budge. Called a friend to bring some rope but after about 20 min I got the thing out with a full throttle flip. Glad the battery lasted!

388 Glad you found it. Such sweet victory.
I almost lost one. Flew close to dusk. It crash and lipo popped off. Spent 3 hours with a flash light griding the field without success. Came back the next day, the field got mowed. I thought the quad was in pieces when I found the lipo wrapper shredded. Couldn't find any pieces of the quad though. I saw a trash can, and found it at the bottom sitting is a layer of beer. My phone number was on the quad and everything. No one bother to call. Dried it off for a few days and it flew. Eventually one of the ESC did catch on fire.

388 23-May-2018, 02:56 AM (This post was last modified: 23-May-2018, 02:57 AM by voodoo614.) This was before the Rooster. It was the GEPRC RX5. It has offset arms. Great tough frame. Difficult built though.
I wonder if the guy mowed the lipo, it exploded and he looks around and saw the quad. Picked it up and toss it.
Always glad not to loss $300+.
