REPTILE DRAGON-2 1200mm Wingspan Twin Motor Double Tail EPP FPV RC Airplane KIT/PNP
A part of the review has been auto-translated.
Unbelievable kit, absolutely fantastic!!! Everything fits perfect and well thought out. I have been doing this hobby most of my life and have never seen anything so complete. Two tail configurations easily swapped. Two sets of counter rotating props, power control board with several 5volt connections, screw on covers for servos and ESCs, additional mounting boards for equipment, GPS mounting board with cover.....and the list goes on. BUY ONE!!!
shipping was pretty quick. I have unboxed it and inspected every part and it is perfect. Seams like a lot of thought and planning has gone into the design of this model. I'm looking forward to setting it up and flying.
Model looks very nice, foam feels durable and the finish looks good. The foam parts fit well and went together easily. The optional tails is an added bonus so you can configure it with a traditional tail or as a Vtail, pick your flavor. The servo covers are a nice touch and looks great, so are the esc covers and GPS covers. Ball links are a nice hardware to have for the control surfaces. Wings feel very sturdy with the spars, the connectors for securing the wing onto the motor panel is great, easy to disassemble if you want to. The foam hatches fit well and magnets feel very strong and will keep it secure. Lots to like about this pnp model. Made some modifications to the tail section before gluing it together; cut a small section of foam away to allow the servo connector to pass under the plywood servo mount for the rudder easier, cut away some foam on the tail section to allow easier replacement of the rudder servo if needed. The motor and escs looks to be sufficient and well made. Mine did not come with any bullet connectors, you can direct solder them as well. I believe there is a programmer for the flycolor escs available, and it seems you can change motor direction via stick commands, but having bullet connectors just simplifies the process. I had to enlarge the fpv camera hole a little to fit my Foxeer Trex Micro cam. Not sure of a cover for the nose is supposed to come with the model but mine didn't have one, if you dont run a go pro or similar it would be nice to have a cover included. I find the ball links seem a bit weak and that that the links can pop off a little easier than I am comfortable with, coming from flying rc helis. The control rods were a bit too long and had to remove some material at the threaded end. Cutting them allowed me to shorten the overall length without the threaded rod pushing through the plastic ball links and hitting the brass ball. Overall a very good model, lots of room, nice foam, reasonably priced.
looks good
For the money there is no better built RC plane available. The foam is better than all others.
looks good
seen so many reviews on YouTube, nothing can be wrong with this plane, arrived sooner than I expected, opened up the box, nice and neat, I've already love it. will prepare the best gear for it , and its gonna be one of my long range FPV plane, running with Li-ion to get miles ....!
Arrived in very good condition, all items undamaged. Aside from no brackets or holder for the power distribution board, everything fits well. Flies great and can carry lot of load (4s lipo 5000mAh or 4s2p liion 7000mAh or 3s lipo 8000 mAh almost in the nose (w/o go pro). Stock settings . Be gentle on control surfaces as the plane responds well to sticks and move the horn to the hole closest to the servo.
Great plane!
one of the best fpv platforms!
