Arh yes stuck in a tree I was flying having a great time getting a few pics then I used the return home button and I don't know if the gps was off a bit or the wind and the fact its only a syma x25pro good little learner but on the way home it over shot and I took control and ended up in a tree ......
its about 30 feet up we tried throwing a tow rope dog leash combo up to shake the branch no luck ...............meanwhile Herbie had just returned from kangaroo chasing (he don't kill them)...shattered and drowning in his water bowl 37c deg aussie outback heat and we are still stuck in the tree.................... broke a long branch off and tried many times and many ways no luck...we better take Herbie home to aircond and chicken dinner before the RSPCA tells us we are bad dog owners ......................then the IDEA.............I went to the hardware I was only 5k outa town got a 10 metre length of poly pipe 50 mm old wire coat hangerr and some duct tape and I am home drinking homebrew beer and is all good I hooked it outa the tree and now have a retrieval tool for the next time
