Status: offline 		ok so here it is, im flying my aero ace on a calm friday afternoon, im just flying waiting for my friend to come so we can go flying, anywhoo, im get it up really high about 150 feet, and all of a sudden a Red Tail Hawk comes and grabs it rite out of the sky, but im not giving it up that easy, i hit the dual .0000000000000000000000000000000001 horsepower engines attached to each wing full throttle and the hawk lets go, fortunatley i got it back but now it has 2 big holes in the right wing. any way that my story.

Status: offline 		if that was me i would have turned that plane around and gone after the hawk, must have been quite an experiance, ive had a few dogs chasing my Tmaxx but thats about it, did teh hawk come around for another go or fly off or did you bottle it and land?
