Inspired by the ingenuity and passion of Mike Patey, E-flite is proud to present the one and only officially-licensed replica of DRACO, the ultimate bush plane. This is one of the most highly-engineered and feature-rich RC models ever produced, designed to capture the spirit of its full-scale counterpart. The complex design is realised in a fully-moulded, durable EPO airframe packed with an abundance of scale details, from a detailed cockpit with a backlit instrument panel to functional features that set it apart. These include licensed, scale-like KING shocks on the main and tail wheel gear, functional leading-edge slats, and large, slotted flaps that combine to deliver truly breathtaking STOL (Short Take Off and Landing) performance. A custom-controlled system of 17 LEDs for navigation, landing, and other lights completes the incredible scale presentation.
Beneath the surface, the DRACO 2.0m is just as impressive. A powerful 4S to 6S compatible brushless motor is controlled by a 100-amp Spektrum Avian Smart ESC, providing real-time telemetry data and optional motor reversing for special ground handling. The BNF Basic version includes a Spektrum AR637TA receiver with AS3X and optional-use SAFE Select technologies, making this large-scale aircraft surprisingly stable and easy to fly for intermediate pilots. Despite its size and complexity, convenience is key. The two-piece wing features a V2 hands-free servo connection system and is secured with quarter-turn thumbscrews for quick, tool-free field assembly and disassembly. It all combines to offer an unmatched STOL, scale, and beyond flying experience that every pilot can appreciate.
Note
Please refer to the instruction manual for safety precautions and operating instructions.
A 7+ channel transmitter is required for optional-use motor reversing.
No tools are required for field assembly or disassembly of the two-piece wing.
