I lost my red,white & blue Gizmo at the launch on Sat. 8/17/13. it landed to the NE of the launch pads and past the tree line. I saw it land but after looking for it for 1 3/4 hrs. it was the end of the day. It is somewhere in the very tall weeds!!! If found let me know on this forum and I'll make arrangements to get it from you. Thanks Greg Olson See the post from Aug. 2011 for the last time it was lost.

I may have found this on Sunday at the WOOSH launch, they thought it was yours and they should have it.

Found two rockets but couldn't find mine...

Not too far in, maybe 100 yards from the treeline to blocks the view. The beeper was still running when I found it but didn't hear it until I was almost on top of it so I figured it was recently lost.
The weeds were about 3' tall so it was pretty well buried but the chute was kind of on top of the grass.
