Just got back from Pilot Ryan event in Mulberry, FL. They had a gaggle of Dracos there flying. Beautiful scale plane. Looks like the main gear is the weak point on this plane. I assisted Ryan on fixing his Draco. Luckily we had a nice fella that had spare parts he donated to Ryan to keep him flying. I’m sure there will be future updates or mods to help mitigate that issue. 👍👍

    Fun flying, good camera work. The crash didn't look too bad, even the prop looked intact from this angle. Looking at the footage at slow speed, you can see that after flaring, there was a little dip down again, and combined with the rough grass, it dug in. We've all been there and done that. Hey, it wouldn't be a Draco if it didn't crash now and then.

If I order one through Horizon about how far out would I be looking before I it arrives? I was hoping you might have some inside info on the situation. Otherwise, I did find one a PNP (no battery) New of course but by the time I add the Lipo and charger the price goes much higher. Or maybe I should just bite the bullet ??? your thoughts?

      Back order it if you want it. That's what I'd say. EVERYTHING is back ordered right now. It's not gonna be months, but it'll be weeks in most cases.

      I remember that you use a phone. And while many other also use a phone , they don't zoom at all. So, you can't see the plane and appreciate what the pilot is actually doing. So thanks for the effort and quality.

    Brian, other videos of yours suggest you’re partial to aerobatics and daring low passes. The Draco is a plane to push some boundaries with, to try some new tricks. Recall that it was conceived and designed as the ultimate STOL bush plane, and intended to dominate the STOL competitions. My Draco is on order and when it comes I’ll be putting down a chalk line and getting a judge to mark my takeoff and landing distance. If I had a buddy, as you do, with a Draco, that’s what we’d focus on. I noticed your last landing was WAY FAST and you used reverse. Zane’s was WAY STEEP and nose low, and he used reverse while still airborne. The Wilga, and the Draco are intended to be landed High Alpha when the shortest possible landing is desired. Sure, you can flip it to reverse when you are down to shorten the roll, but to land High Alpha, keep the power in and the nose way high! I’ve been doing in in RF 9.5 with the Draco Safe + Reverse available on the forum and it works. You can get some amazing short landings with that approach. One more thing about the sim though, its treatment of reverse prop while airborne is totally unrealistic. You an flip to reverse and hit it when about 20 inches AGL and make a good landing with no ground roll. As you know from hitting reverse while airborne, (of course you’d do that...), as soon as you do the nose pitches down sharply. Maybe Zane got fooled by using the Sim. He proved what I suspected, you can’t get away with that on the model, or a full sized aircraft. This little video was excellent and thoroughly enjoyable. Camera Crew, you shine! Excellent work behind that lens. Great job of keeping all that action in view. I love your videos for entertainment and instruction, my wife just comes for the laughs! Keep it up.

      My son was about 6 when he started dabbling, but it was with a terrible option for a first plane....the Duet.
      He's been flying ever since, but flies a lot less frequently than me. He likes to use a simulator to help build his confidence. I don't use the simulator much, but many do. I'd prefer to use simple planes in calm weather to practice, and do it a LOT. Simulators for me are for fun, but not used like many use them. That's not to say this is normal...it is a bit unusual.

I backed out and followed the link again and it did it again. It’s hard to explain it but it felt like it wasn’t a smooth process to checkout and still be in your link?

    I definitely think you shouldn’t hit the reverse before touching down, unless you start high and make a very steep descent. I learned that lesson on the Night Timber X. Better case scenario than with Draco.😌 Great formation flight.👊🏻

    Reversing thrust before wheels touch down is just asking for it. Im surprised the first landings also didn’t end like that.

      I've hit it just right a few times off camera, and it's something else! The whole suspension squats!!! So cool ;) I've screwed up way more thought.... I just didn't also hit a chunk of grass.

      I usually turn it on at about ground effect BUT keep the throttle at 0% so the prop tractors, and helps slow her down and transition to FULL on reverse thrust ;)

      He did reverse a bit too early, I think too. He's a good enough pilot, but pretty impulsive :) I think he wanted to show off for the cameras (and his hero - LOL!!! - I'm making fun of me, if it weren't clear...I know YOU know, but other readers might not get it) but I was super bummed for him. It sucks to break stuff. We just had to fix our tractor since a TREE jumped out from NOWHERE and broke what would have been a $1,300 part - ouch...luckily, Mother Nature grossly underestimated my cheapness, and it's now fixed for about $50ish and a little TLC and help from the camera crew - we'll post this too.

    • @BrianPhillipsRC
      @BrianPhillipsRC  Před 3 lety +1

      It's because he was screwing around. this plane is great, and it will tempt you to do the same, but if you don't push the limits too quick, you'll be able to enjoy it for a long time too come, BUT as you can see from the crash, it's heavy, powerful, and arguably unforgiving when it comes to slamming into the ground too hard...everything had a limit...the limit for the Draco is about 2-3 times further past most planes, but when you get there, the threshold for damage is very immediate.

    • @flymachine
      @flymachine Před 3 lety +1

      @@BrianPhillipsRC that's a thorough and thoughtful response and critique of the airplane. I'll keep it in mind but I haven't crashed in years (touch wood) because I fly RC like I fly full size, preflights, pattern work, no unnecessary maneuvering etc. I guess one has to get what one wants from the hobby, for me, it's serious and cautious, for others it's replaceable fun.
