Laravel 5.3, Eloqent models and Namespace Issues - php

Question

I am confused. I am following the laravel document to the T and something isn't being configured properly maybe?
The Short: I can't use my Eloquent models like the documentation shows.
The Long:
I followed these steps from the Laravel docs.
laravel new blog
added database details to .env
created a model: php artisan make:model SavedService
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
/**
* #property integer $service_id
* #property string $title
* #property string $price
* #property string $short_description
* #property string $long_description
* #property integer $display
*/
class SavedService extends Model
{
protected $table = 'saved_services';
public $timestamps = false;
/**
* #var array
*/
protected $fillable = ['title', 'price', 'short_description', 'long_description', 'display'];
}
created a controller: php artisan make:controller datatest
added index method to controller:
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Http\Requests;
use App\SavedService;
class datatest extends Controller
{
public function index() {
$flights = App\SavedService::all();
foreach ($flights as $flight) {
echo $flight->name;
}
}
}
Now, use App\SavedService; is highlighted in PHPStorm: "SavedServices is never used."
Also, for $flights = App\SavedService::all();, App is highlighted in red: "Undefined namespace App." SavedService is highlighted and PHPStorm tells me "Undefined class SavedService."
If I let PHPStorm create the SavedService class, its namespace is App/Http/Controllers/App
??
Project structure is
app
-composer.json
-Http\
-SavedService.php
--Controllers\
---dataTest.php
My composer.json autoload:
"autoload": {
"classmap": [
"database"
],
"psr-4": {
"App\\": "app/"
}
},
EDIT:
Sorry, had to rush, train got into the station! I wanted to add to this a few things. First, I am using a vagrant machine to host the projects, not sure if that is important to know? Second, I wanted to use Propel-orm. I find eloquent not very eloquent at all. I couldn't get propel to work, something to do with namespaces. The propel generated models would be in app/Http/Models/Http/Models/ModelName. I am beginning to think this is all one problem.
I am not doing anything extra ordinary to the process. Just following the steps in the documentation.
Additionally, Eloquent doesn't seem to work the way the eloquent documentation hosted on the Laravel docs page. For example "get()" eloquentModel::get(). The laravel docs shows it as that, get(), and phpstorm throws a fit saying $key is expected. The eloquent documentation confirms, get($key). What am I missing there? Why the difference, and why isn't it mentioned in the documentation. Maybe this has something to do with my current issue? Maybe the answer the this will solve why I can't use propel?
END EDIT.
What am I missing? I'm so confused, why isn't this just working? Help please!!! Thanks

Answer 1

change
$flights = App\SavedService::all();
to
$flights = SavedService::all();
