Don't think changing transmitters would have helped much, stuff happens. To get your plane, depending on how high in the tree, some have taken a tennis ball on the end of a line to a casting reel and fishing pole, used such to knock a plane out of a tree. If there is an Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA) club nearby, you might get some help from them, help give you hands on flight instructions and lessons, also help you out with model selection, plus you might be able to get a good used plane someone has no longer a need for, save some bucks. Good place to inquire is a nearby hobby store if there's one nearby you.
