Sam, Sorry to hear this. We will keep an eye out at the bring and buy this weekend. Have you posted this on BMFA and HighAlpha websites as well? Spread it about as much as possible and someone might spot something.

Sam that's bad, sorry mate. Definitely post it on HighAlpha. Very vigilant bunch of chaps and esp. your Laser is very distinctive with initials if it comes up for sale. Might be worth letting the model shops around the area know (esp. SMC) in case someone tries to sell as second hand.

Oh Dear..........

 

Firstly, were other cars targetted at the same time, if so, what was taken?

 

Secondly, have you contacted local RC clubs?

Thanks all for looking out for for items at the bring and buy this weekend. Oddly enough I might be getting rid of a thew things at the bring and buy tomorrow, never planned on losing my precious 12FG and Laser

 

I did inform a few shops and clubs. Apparently most thieves are smart enough to take out the radio/engine and dispose of airframe, so not much hope of recovery but worth a try.
