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.

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?

holy dog toffee! 
... these hawks think they own the place... maybe a little "persuasion" with a 12-bore and he would have given the cross-spar back :P
