If you fly them on 1/2A6-2 s, you don't have that problem. I have flown my Twister on an A8-5 once, and I still had to walk about a quarter mile to get both parts. (It was pretty windy that day.)

I'd venture to guess your launch site did not have grass more than a couple inches tall, and that it was pretty flat.

Mine landed maybe a couple hundred feet away and turned invisible.
