By most estimates, planning and building the full-size DRACO should have taken years. Entrepreneur Mike Patey - whose exceptional drive and Back to Work™ ethic have inspired thousands of people - accomplished it in just over five months! Mike started with a Wilga 2000, replacing its Lycoming O-540 piston engine with a Pratt & Whitney PT6A-28 turboprop boasting about twice the power at half the weight. Many additional modifications followed before Mike proudly unveiled his "ultimate bush plane". It could go to the same places as a Carbon Cub, but also climb twice as fast; reach altitudes up to 28,000 feet; and cruise cross-country at 180 MPH while carrying four people plus gear. Changes from the Wilga were so extensive that the FAA approved Mike's redesign as an experimental exhibition aircraft. The DRACO 2.0m is equally unique and astounding - and it's also one of the most highly-engineered, detailed and feature-rich E-flite® aircraft yet!
Testing that landing gear!! Haha...thank you guys :)
Haha never a bad landing just testing the landing gear 😉
Early release?? 🤔Just paid for mine yesterday, waiting to pick it up on Draco day!
Yes we had the opportunity to get it a little early hopefully you enjoy the video on your short wait to Draco day 😍
I think either 50 or so ppl get early release a week b4 the public release.
Wow that’s an amazing machine🐉 , even more better is your father’s excitement that’s priceless 💯 he’s so pumped and excited, my type of party #FOREVERYOUNG
What’s the wait time until you will receive your Draco🐉
I’ve been waiting just over a month.
I see pops got him self a wind meter...thats awesome. Great plane.
Lol yep. Everyone didn’t believe our wind reports for some reason so know we can tell you exactly what it is radar next
Congratulations, so happy your part of this rollout, enjoy your Draco! The baddest STOL RC on the planet 🤩BB
Extremely thankful for the opportunity I hope you enjoy the content 😉
DRACO: IM THE BEST STOL PLANE!!
SCRAPPY: HOLD MY BEER🍺
Love the plane
I hope it’s in our future 😅
Me to
I'm waiting for a all s*** moment where you flip the switch and a parachute will come out and save your plane before it impacts something right. And of course it parachutes got to be tied to a rubber band or a bungee strap ripcord so to speak.
Can it be trimmed on maiden with as3x turned on or should it be off?
I really dont think your dad could be prouder of you.. thats really good stuff
Guys, does anyone use a Futaba for this model? Looking for settings setup to have all functions(reverse, lights....)
Sorry I don’t use anything but Spektrum 🤷♂️
I bit of gentle reverse on approach will steeper the glide-path.
Ordered!
Sweet you are going to love it 😍
Is the NX6 or the NX8 to fly the Draco you prefer?
Awesome awesome awesome! 👍👍
Draco really looks like a versatile plane. Looking forward to more videos
Thanks Dennis good to see you in the comments 😉
*Thank you.*
I'm on the verge of purchasing the Draco and I've enjoyed your presentation. I like the OV-10 too.
I've noticed what appears to be pyramidal mounds in the back ground, did you know that Native Americans along the Mississippi lived in houses long before the Europeans arrived in America? Did you know that the French arrived in America and began colonizing 60 to 80 years before the Pilgrims ever set sail on the Mayflower?
The Mississippi people were the only Native Americans to have defeated the Spanish, The Mayan people gave the Spanish a hell of a fight which lasted for several years before they fell.
The Aztec people also believed in a Blood sacrifice for their Sins, they just believed it should be done more frequently than what the Christians believe.
Moral of the story: size matters, and slow and steady wins the race! I kinda want one just to modify it more.
Yes lol 😂 good way of putting it to funny
Did you add mechanical up trim?
No I did not the model does have some mix built in on the BNF
Picking mine up on Draco day too! I can't wait for the flying fields to open up to take her out and let 'er fly, fly fly. Thanks for all of the video on putting it together and setting up and flying. Hoping to set it up this weekend :-)
SWEET. Wes you got the Old Man thinking. Great flying and an awesome plane. Big and Slow. Ms Lori always a great video. Love you guys. 💝💝
Yes sr just like me Big ,slow and beautiful ☺️
Best Tugs in China Town!
Great review as predicted Boozers.
Reverse isn't new. My ultimate 3d biplane has it. I use it a ton flying 3d. Does take a bit to get used to.
Omg 😱 I need to put an fpv camera in one of these!!!
Excellent review Wes 👍
Thanks brother can’t wait to see yours although it already comes with a receiver 😝
Way to Boozit right.
Yes the force is strong with this one
Draco is it, nice to see the way you guys stretched the flight envelope of this Draco with the different speeds of winds, good maiden flight Merry Boozer RC,
Thanks 🙏 yea I can’t wait to have some crazy windy conditions
Looking mighty fine! Yeah-- I could see this come to a stop or even flying backwards in a 20 mph wind. I foresee a future Boozer video making it happen. Well done... Wesley , Papa, Lori...Can't wait to see all ya'll in person as well as the DRACO down in Mulberry. :)
Yes as soon as I get a windy day it’s happening
Another great flight review of the DRACO. Thanks guys.
Thanks Bill glad you enjoyed it.
Great maiden Wes n Boozers. Nice to see someone test the reverse in flight! Be looking for more videos of this from MB... there's just soo many right now. AirHammer out!!
Lol Draco videos are everywhere today lol 😂
You guys are great! You just had to throw it in reverse during flight! One of the first things I would have done. Thanks for keeping it real!
Lol 😂 had to try it 😉
Great flight guys, loves this plane since I saw the real one. 👍🏻
Nice you got one on the way yet?
@@MerryBoozerRC not yet, HH not delivering direct to the UK sucks. Waiting till they are in the UK. I am sure it will be soon. But I will be using a FRSky receiver, everything like the reverse and lights should still work. Always a pleasure to watch you both anyhow. 👍🏻
Excellent Wes nice maiden Team Boozer hit it out of the park⚾⚾⚾⚾
Thanks again Tughill glad you are enjoying the videos 🥰
@@MerryBoozerRC Blue Print for Those of us getting the Draco
Excellent introduction, MB. Finally, get to see them out there.
Happy 😃 to get the chance
Awesome video and informative too!
Thanks brother
What a gorgeous model :)
Truly the best E-flite model yet.... although the 190 is close behind it
@@MerryBoozerRC +1
The 190 looks the part too!
Great Plane, I think I am gonna love it!
I know you are going to love it 😍
Awesome awesome awesome.
$600 is a lot of money to spend on a plane at least in my opinion. But like you guys said, it’s a good value for this plane. Given the size, quality and features I think it’s well worth it if you are willing to spend that kind of money.
It is actually not that expensive for the size of plane it is an equivalent in balsa would be over $1k and would still need to be assembled. That being said I know it’s not for everyone’s budget
Good maiden flight!!!1
