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. 👍👍

Since this is a flight video, I turned the sound off and watched it on my TV. Credit to the "camera man". This comment is for her. Great job keeping the two planes in view, especially as they separated! Do you use the two thumb approach to quickly react and keep them in zoom? Thanks for capturing his adventures!!

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Megan says, "No, Not sure what this Two Thumbs method is.".... (I just yelled into the kitchen and she answered you, fyi...) Thanks! we'll look into the Two Thumbed Approach - hopefully we won't find anything we wouldn't want to see in front of Grandma ;)

She said she uses her Pointer and Middle Finger to control the zoom in flight. She's now using a vertical grip to accommodate the new "Shotgun Mic" and this thing holds the phone.

[@AirVexedRC]

@@BrianPhillipsRC LOL. I'm sure Grandma would approve. It's just holding the phone like a video game controller and using your two thumbs on the screen to change your zoom focus. 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.

[@ficosk8]

On the weekend I was about to buy one used but I was too slow. But I think I´ll get one, great video! I hadn´t see this before, just your unboxing with that garden crash :S. Sorry for that final landing. He was coming very stable but somehow that reverso dropped the nose down :/ Thanks for your great videos! Next time catch the mouse :)

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

That plane is very brilliant and nice flying. With its short distance takeoff/landing and reverse capabilities. Its awesome.

[@bendrixbailey1430]

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.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Thanks! Good luck with you're when it arrive. It's is a THRILL, and you'll love flying it, but keep in mind, it's heavy, and I'm pretty nice to my Draco compared to Zane ;)

[@jbrundt]

that happened to a C-130 they were testing for the Iran hostage rescue attempt...but with reverse JATO's and more catastrophic results.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

That's not good!

[@Ultramesh]

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.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Yep - if you're not making a mistake once in a while, you aren't doing much of anything ;) Still a bummer to rough up such a beauty.

[@EJ-74]

That was fun to watch especially when y'all were flying the bowl Dang hated to see Zane bit the dust on the last landing Looked like he hit reverse a bit to early Bet he doesn't do that again lol Other than that he did great and he learned a lesson only lost a prop hell that's a good day Great job guys and a big thanks to Camera Crew for putting up with y'all hehe and doing a great job as always 🔥👍✌️

Brian, on another note, you’ve mentioned many times in your videos about having your son fly some of these planes so I was curious what age he is? Also I wanted to ask you, when you first started flying planes did you use a simulator and if so, did you use it a lot until you felt confident, or hardly at all or none or...? Lol looking forward to your reply

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

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.

[@anybodysguess960]

@@BrianPhillipsRC Interesting! Thank you for the reply. I’m two months into RC planes now and have yet to fly on experienced mode more than a few seconds at a time, other than on a simulator but my plan is to buy the Habu in the near future and I will use your link. I used your link a couple weeks ago to buy the OMP S720 and a week later the T720. When I tried to checkout it wouldn’t let me go to the next step. 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? After a couple times of this I tried purchasing a different way by looking for that plane using their search bar.

Second crash video I’ve seen of Draco, it seems to be a trend now - I’m still waiting for mine to arrive, I won’t be crashing mine, shipped here cost as much as a small car.. oh and I blame Spektrum

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

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]

@@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.

[@SingerUnkn0wn]

these planes are not that great. however they are cool and have some really cool features. They are a bit goofy to land mainly because they are heavy. over hyped and a little over priced but i still like it.

[@zanelathrum37]

If you really look into the plane and what it is and compare to other E-Flite Models, it’s the best on there lineup

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

You want one so bad! I can tell!!!

[@SingerUnkn0wn]

i have flown 5 batteries so far.

[@jacksampson7711]

That did not qualify as a real crash. I was hoping for a nice mid air collision.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

LOL

[@RykerRC]

Oh no! Reverse a bit early.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Maybe a wee bit?

[@grlowery6006]

I feel so bad for him.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

It was a bummer, but he's all good now ;)

[@maxun1]

Ups,

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

United Parcel Service, or Good ups? ;)

[@redwineisfine]

Flying is kind of like losing ones virginity.. Always better to do it others than to solo

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

LOL - Very nice!

[@musk-eteer9898]

for the price, i can paint my turbo timber red

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

LOL - That's one way ;) This plane is awesome, you GOTTA Fly one!

[@oldscratch3540]

I hope it goes back together for ya. I'd be sick much like the time the wiend took away my lil turbo Timber. 🤑

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

I know Zane has it under control!

[@travisbertain7522]

👍

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Thanks!

[@factorypilot99]

When he reversed it just before flare I cringed so hard 😂

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

yep, simple mistake, exacerbated by the position of the plane and the grass under it.

[@grlowery6006]

My heart stopped, just the thought of that happening to a 500$ airplane is horrible.

[@Canal_do_Kirby]

I like your videos ^^ 13:25 :/

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Thanks ;) I felt bad for Zane!!!

[@MB-ik8oj]

Reverse on this plane and any STOL plane is ridiculous and not needed. Seems like another gimmick for people to buy this expensive plane. I understand all the hype about the super detail but you don't see most of it while flying and it's not like I'm putting it in my front house window for display. Great detail at a great cost and they're starting to find many problems with it already.

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

So, you don't think it's cool that the plane has reverse thrust, JUST like the real plane had???

[@grumpyjohntxredneckrc6346]

Ohhh Brian, Yeah @ 9:25 You Say They're Real Expensive Butt You Got Yours For FREE! Now I Understand Why You Are Soo Giddy In All Your Videos Since All Your Planes Are FREE Now For Like The Past Year+!? 🤣

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Hey, doesn't stop my sack from getting caught in the barbwire ;)

[@grumpyjohntxredneckrc6346]

Then Maybe You Need To Lift Your Sack Some! 🤣

[@shanethepain2009]

wilga

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

Yeah, sorry ;)

[@jimmyhaley727]

crashes dont matter when you gots plenty $$$$

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

That's one point of view - LOL

[@RuyGuy]

He calls his wife "camera crew", how obnoxious.

[@zanelathrum37]

That’s what she is, and she is really good at it!!! If your gonna hate go to someone else’s channel please 😇

[@BrianPhillipsRC]

It's only obnoxious since you aren't in the know... When you get in the know, you will feel differently.
