Oh man...bringing up the old memories...

My former Goldberg Ultimate, it was a great flying plane...it went into battery fail safe over some trees, it took me a second or two before I figured out what the problem was and by then it was too late.

Sorry for the blurry second pic, I resized it for my avatar and never saved the original.
