ouch man.......keep your eyes peeled in the classifieds on here and RR and Ebay....hope you get it back!

I feel your pain. We had a similar experience August of last year only it was a Tazer 800 and equipement for aerial photography we used at work. As luck would have it, we actually got it back, all of it, a couple of weeks ago. I thought we'd never see that stuff again but we did.

In your case, I know it seems unlikely but you never know.

Good luck,
Steve R.

Oh man, that's a fine looking bird. It's no excuse but I can see why someone, somewhere, might be tempted. It does look pretty unique. If you can get the word out enough, someone might recognize it.

No insurance? Or wont they cover your heli?

600nitroexpress · 07-26-2012, 10:35 AM

yeah I have insurance!! but it still stokes me that someone did this. I think they will find the guy but my concern is property, the court will more than likely not release property till case is closed!!!! I hope I am wrong

badfrog · 07-26-2012, 10:46 AM

Wow Nitro... pretty heli... I hope they do find the guy and he gets more than a "slap on the wrist" and you get it back quickly!
it is highly unlikely that it makes its way this far, but I am on craigslist in Nashville all the time... I will keep my eye out for it.

600nitroexpress · 07-31-2012, 02:03 PM

Suspect is in custody for 10 counts 100k cash/surity bond.

The bergen is in pieces only ID the torq tube. I have no idea about the other stuff!!!

Yooper42 · 07-31-2012, 02:13 PM

Damn......hope they toss this piece of

in the tank for awhile and you get paid for what was taken from you. Best of luck down the road...........

Skiddz · 08-01-2012, 12:21 AM

Awesome. Love it when the scumbags get caught.... Best of luck in recovering the rest of your stuff.

Cletus · 08-02-2012, 07:17 AM

Good to know they caught the #@&^$ bastard!
What's his deal though, just a common opportunist thief? or is it someone that's in the hobby?
