I really appreciate your time/thoughts, Fly Dawg (and others). It just sucks.... was literally heart-wrenching to watch it slowly descend and descend and descend into the water and not be able to do anything.
Is there anything else I can provide? as I mentioned in the original post, we dived for the aircraft this morning but the visibility below about 50 feet is just about black.... and who knows how far the currents took it. The likelihood of finding it is VERY low.... The main reason I'm inquiring...

The takeoff point was about 10m east of where any of the flightpath shows. I was on the point just northwest of the northernmost house when I took off. There is no flightpath shown from the land to the landing point which is where the confusion lies. Thats why my assumption is that it created a...
Hey Fly Dawg, thanks. Had not utilized this tool before. wow! This is pretty crazy. The crash point is accurate.... this follows just about exactly where I thought it landed. However, the flightpath and other information do not appear accurate at all. There were not aggressive lateral deviations...
Hi Folks,
My name is Austin Welch and I am new to the forum here, but I am looking for a little help.
Yesterday, I took my aircraft off for a flight on an island near Alexandria Bay, New York. It was my third flight of the day and I’d had no issues previously. After installing a fresh battery...
