Bought the DRACO 2.0 weeks ago, watched all your videos on the monster red dragon, read the book a few times. Downloaded the setup file which was up to date, then rechecked everything again, and Re-watched your videos again, when I went to fly it today, it felt like I've been flying it for weeks, maiden flight went perfect four flights today!

NICE!!! Glad you had a great experience! She's a dream to look at, and even better to fly!

To be clear, this comment is not intended to denigrate anyone. The object is to compare good to GREAT and laud the greatness. I watched this build and the HH official build. No comparison. This build is easier to follow, has better camera angles, has more good information and is just plain entertaining; both the humans and felines! Brian, you made a side comment about KZread suggesting you cut your video time. PLEASE DON’T. Yes, your unbox and build is long, but I love the detail and the entertainment. No, I did not watch the entire video at once. I broke it up over three sittings (which I’m pretty sure resulted in more advertisement) just cause that worked for me, not cause I got bored. Also did some rewind. Besides the additional detail and entertainment, I have to applaud the camera work! In the HH video they used two fixed angles and those just did not get in close or even in the right position to see what was being assembled. All in all, whether its a flight where the aircraft remains astoundingly centered during the entire filming, or a build where the camera gets just the right angle and zoom, your ‘camera partner’ is absolutely the most talented of any. Her work is much appreciated. My Draco is still on back order and probably won’t arrive until after you do your ‘second thoughts’ video. I’ll be back, watching and following along again, all 2.5 hours, when I get mine. Great work. Thanks so much.

It's like we're rearing another child - LOL ;) Thank you once again for being a part of our success, and while Megan and I both play a part in it, we would have long since given up if it weren't for such a great audience here on KZread. Thank you Bendrix Bailey.

WHEW! I made it through all 2:30 hours. CRAZY cool airplane! I don't see it in my stable any time soon, but I do see it happening eventually. Horizon continues to raise the bar on scale detail with planes like Draco and the new Focke Wulf. I continue to be amazed. The only thing I would change aesthetically on Draco is to try to clear coat it with a high gloss, which would be more representative of the real plane. I've been a subscriber to Mike Patey's channel for a couple of years now. When I started flying RC about a year ago, Draco was the one plane I wished someone in our hobby would develop. Hats off to Horizon Hobby for doing an outstanding job of that. As always, thanks much for sharing. BTW - the flight video was great. Steve

I'm waiting for my DRACO Ultimate to arrive to my LHS possibly this week so watching this unboxing is super helpful but makes me super jealous. Do you have a local charity for subscribers to support?

Jay - Thanks for the very kind words, and the feeling you're having waiting for the Draco is palpable, and I don't envy it at all ;) I hope you can get one very soon! As for my wing-woman, you're exactly right about her, she is absolutely essential to our channel's success!!! If you're looking for a way (or ways) to support us, and our channel, here's the most common... 1) Watch the content 2) Like the videos and Share on your social media, if you wish 3) Subscribe and click the bell for notifications 4) Buy from the links in the video description, but also peppered into the comments too. If you're already buying something, you don't have to spend any extra, and we'll get a "pat on the back" from the MFG, or Distributor for your purchase. This really helps us to build clout with said MFG's and Distributors, but we tell them we'll be honest to You, our REAL bosses, and they agree. This is HOW we can afford to review so much, and why my wife tolerates the time commitment demanded for our KZread experience. Keep in mind, she is not an RC or Aviation enthusiast, she's just very supportive of me, and my pursuits. I'm a lucky guy! ...but if you were asking where we point others to contribute to a charity that we believe in...If this was what you meant, I could elaborate more, but we don't really like to push our personal charity choices onto others. Charity is a highly personal activity in our lives, and we don't expect others to share in it at all. We do and have supported organizations in the past, but we feel it somewhat faux pax to ask others to do so. Not sure if this was even what you were asking, but if so, hopefully this answers your question. Thanks for being a part of our channel. We're so glad you found it!

Thanks Phillip! We try to incorporate these items into our videos, and will keep trying to pepper this stuff in, but doing a specific "how to fly" video, would need to be a whole series. I'll think about how we can incorporate more of this in our upcoming videos!

When I first saw the Draco I didn’t understand the hype but it’s been growing on me. I’ve only been flying for 2 months but I have logged a ton of hours in that short time period. I have mastered the Cub S, and have just begun flying my T-28 Trojan. I have too say and it’s probably because I’m more comfortable with the Cub but I prefer the cub style plane. I haven’t given up on the Trojan by any means but I think I prefer the slow scale flying, not so much the race car. I’ve bought all my planes through your links because I want you to be successful since I love your videos. I used to just follow the book during programming but I now understand what I’m doing due to your training, so thank you a million for that. I’ll be buying one of these very shortly so keep an eye out for your commission check! Keep making awesome videos and thanks to camera crew as well. All the best Brian!

@@BrianPhillipsRC Yes I did buy one. It flies heavy in my opinion but I also don’t horse it around as much as I do my other planes, it intimidates me because of the cost involved with crashing. I kind of wish I would have went with the Carbon Z Cub as I feel like it would fly more my style but I do like the Draco. My current favorite plane to fly is my Pitts 1400. I know you don’t always read follow up comments but if you happen to read this one, change the propeller on your Pitts 1400 to a 16x8. I got that tip from AV8R’s channel and it transforms that plane. Stock I loved the look but thought the performance was lacking, with the simple propeller change it now has the looks and the performance. Try it you’ll love it, and do a third thoughts video with it. Anyway I’m a bit off topic but thanks again for everything Brian and family! Love your videos keep it up!

@@BrianPhillipsRC yes, that was the plane I meant. I want to set up crow on the FMS17 and don’t yet feel confident to do so. Will keep watching and maybe you will show me how again? Thanks. PS I begin to feel I know your yard very well! Still have trouble figuring how far away the tree line is on the right though.

Thank you Sir

Nice! I did that with my Airbus A330-600 when I was just getting the lighting done on it years ago...it was so much fun, but here, nobody to drool...just me, the way I like it ;)

The black handles at the wing root are just that. Hand holds so you can reach the top of the wing so you can reach things such as the fuel tank caps, inspect the wing etc. The real Draco was a very big airplane and you don't carry a ladder with you!

@@BrianPhillipsRC agree they looked like alignment pins. Oh BTW the black on the back of the prop is correct. The backside of the propeller is always flat black to prevent glare and make it easier to see thru the prop disc. Keep up the videos!

Awesome Jeff! Glad you've got one coming!

I’m pretty sure that you measure the shaft of the bolt from the end up to the bottom of the head. That’s why when you used the micrometer you got an 8mm reading from a 6.5mm bolt. It would be nice if Horizon put them in labeled packages. Sorting out bolts and nuts by size and thread count is confusing!

yes, agreed! they used to do this too, and they used to have "actual" size drawings for each part too...not sure why this stopped???

Good for you, Nick! Gotta have your priorities straight! So much of life comes with short term sacrifice, for long term gain. Don't let anyone talk you out of this, because they will almost always be wrong! The Draco is amazing, but you're working to position yourself to have many future Draco's! God knows we did a LOT of this delayed gratification over the years to get where we are today, and it's amazing how many people will NOT do it...even though they know better. Keep up the hard work, and you'll have plenty to pay for one of these beauties in no time!
