If the backdrop for your day of model plane or glider-flying is as flat as the picture above, then finding your plane when it lands may not prove to be much of a challenge.  If your choice of flying environment is near trees, fields or other natural impediments however, then the Loc8tor is a worthy kit to own giving you peace of mind and helping protect your model plane investment. 

Although Loc8tor was not designed specifically for remote control planes, helicopters and rockets the attributes that are so important for other applications - good range, small, light tags, and at an affordable price are identical.  We have been genuinely bowled over with the take up from the Remote control community and the quantity of Loc8tors sold for this application.

Tech Specs
Loc8tor's Mini Homing Tag, weighing in at only 5 grams, makes it small and light enough to fit on / in any Flying remote controlled craft. The distance Loc8tor will work across will vary depending on the environment. If the plane is stuck up in a tree and there’s clear line of sight, then you can expect up to 183m / 600 ft range. On the ground, and in corn fields this range will be reduced.

We do not believe a range of miles is needed nor worth the significant extra cost. From listening to our customers, we can summise that most Remote control enthusiasts would know roughly where their Remote control  craft has landed. Simply head in that direction with the locate on and as soon as you are in range the handheld will immediately detect and inform which way to go.

"I am an aero modeller who purchased the loc8tor as an aid to assist in finding my free   
flight models when they fly away down wind.  I am pleased to inform you that my first    
successful find occurred when my rubber powered model flowed out of the aerodrome
and into a wood.  It landed on top of a large oak tree and without the Loc8tor I would 
never have found it. How the model was subsequently got down with only minor damage
is another story."

"About three weeks ago, my R/C model plane had a midair collision with one belonging to a fellow club member.  It's tail was torn off and it disappeared going down vertically into gum trees about 200 metres away. We collected the Loc8or unit and headed down a fire trail into the bush. We were at the correct spot, looking in the wrong direction when the Loc8or said "look behind you dummy" or sounds to that effect. We finally found the plane just behind us, cunningly concealed about 15 metres up a gum tree. Without the Loc8or we would probably still be looking! Good news: it's rebuilt and ready to fly again."
