Why hasn't a single person at the tree thought of using one of those remote control helicopters to knock it out?

so who got the vegas package? was it ign? or is it still not recovered? i dont remember seeing anything confirmed, been too pre-occupied with the Team Taco thing, xD


No. IGN got the SF one

We're waiting for recovery of Vegas one.


Did they officially get it now?  Ithought they had just found it, but couldn't get it down.

I'm sure one of them has one in their utility belt.

Because it's a parachute wrapped around several tree limbs, if I understand it right. Lots of ropes tangled around. It's not something you can just knock down.

To be honest, it sounds (and looks from the pics) like the only way to get it down will be to bring in equipment to get someone up there to snip the package free, or to take the tangled branches off at the trunk with a hacksaw.

i know it hasnt launched yet thats why im asking where its launching from


OK, I checked the weather forecast for the NY metropolitan area for tomorrow:
 
“Sun and a few clouds with gusty winds. High near 45F. Winds W at 25 to 35 mph. Winds could occasionally gust over 50 mph”
 
That means if they launch from Central Park (just speculating here, but it seems the obvious choice), with the gusty westerly winds, it might end up somewhere by the tween forks of Long Island: Riverhead, the Hamptons, Peconic Bay or the Atlantic Ocean

Ah, wasn't aware it was so tangled. Though at this point they have had plenty of time to get some climbing equipment *whistles*

Too bad IGN got the SF one. I was hoping some "regular", not gaming media, person would get it. I know they plan to give it away, but it's not the same thing.

Damn, if only I was in Long Island. Doubt any of the family will be up to digging around for me.

To everyone trying to use the Taco sig - Use brackets (these [ and ]) and put "img" (without quotes) inside. Then put the url of the sig. Then do the brackets and img again, but put a backslash in front of img.

If they did, the LV team should still be able to track it.
