Default Hanging a small foam cub on floats in a tree video.....

My buddy who has flown for years got hung up in a tree.
We have flown a few small planes here before, but the test fly with a new plane went a little wrong ! To make things worse the tree was on a separate small island from where we were.. and we didn't bring the kayak. So with a fishing pole and a short stick tied on the string it took me an hour to shake the tree and make the plane fall first to a lower branch, and then second and FINALLY into the water. The slight breeze wouldn't push the plane across to us until I finally got it dragged half way across with the stick. Only casualty was 3 inches broke off one float, and it glued right back on perfectly...
