Feature Highlights

Durable Design
Bind-N-Fly Completion Level Advantage

Already own a Spektrum transmitter? Bind-N-Fly (BNF) aircraft make getting into the air quickly and with the best control experience possible easier than ever. They come out of the box with the power system, servos, and a Spektrum 2.4GHz receiver installed, so all you need to do is bind the receiver to a compatible transmitter, finish any final assembly, and fly!

Exclusive Technologies
Exclusive Technologies

Micro DRACO features exclusive Spektrum AS3X and SAFE Select technologies. AS3X works behind the scenes to smooth out the effects of wind and turbulence to deliver a locked-in feel that makes it seem like you're flying a much larger airplane. Optional-use SAFE Select offers pitch and bank angle limits and automatic self-leveling that can be turned on and off at the flip of a switch to make this the easiest to fly DRACO model yet!

Fully Assembled
Easy Assembly

The Micro DRACO arrives mostly factory-assembled with the power system, servos, and receiver installed. All you need to do is install the one-piece wing with a single screw, which can be removed quickly and easily for even more convenient storage and transport. It's also factory-finished with a premium, fully painted, plus decal trim scheme that makes for a scale replica you'll be proud to show off everywhere you go.

Gear Options
Scale Features

Micro DRACO is equipped with several functional scale features, including flaps and LED navigation, landing, and simulated strobe lights. It also features many scale details, including antennas, steps, wingtip “stinger” skids, molded-in rivets, panel lines, corrugation on the control surfaces, and more.

High Performance
Versatile Power

The factory-installed Spektrum brushless outrunner motor can drive the four-blade propeller with 3S or 4S 300mAh batteries. Install a 3S battery for slow and smooth scale flying and basic aerobatics, or a 4S battery to deliver better-than-scale vertical and aggressive aerobatic performance – without any modifications or upgrades!

Telemetry Capable
Telemetry Capable

The Micro DRACO 800mm is equipped with a control unit/flight controller that includes an ESC and Spektrum receiver that provides real-time flight battery voltage, current draw, motor RPM, and other telemetry information to compatible Spektrum AirWare equipped transmitters while you fly.

Durable Design
Capable Gear

The oversized, tundra-style tires on the sprung wire main gear with simulated KING shocks soak up bumps and provide excellent prop clearance. They also make it possible to taxi over, take off from, and land on a variety of surfaces that are impossible for most models of this size to handle – from the grass surfaces found at many parks and sports fields to gravel paths and paved surfaces, too.

Gear Options
Durable Design

Construction with advanced EPS material delivers a lightweight yet durable airframe that's also easily repairable with odorless/foam-safe CA, Foam 2 Foam, epoxy, and other foam-friendly adhesives. If you damage any airframe parts or components and can't repair them, a full line of replacement/spare parts is readily available.

Overview

THE MICRO-SIZED MIKE PATEY STOL MONSTER

Mike Patey's undeniable passion, exceptional drive, and work ethic (Back to Work™) have led to himdesigning and building some of the most unique and incredible aircraft – while his infectious enthusiasmhas inspired thousands of people to enjoy RC and full-scale aviation along the way! Starting with aWilga 2000 and replacing its Lycoming O-540 piston engine with a Pratt & Whitney PT6A-28 turbopropboasting about twice the power at half the weight, then many additional modifications later, Mikeproudly unveiled his “ultimate bush plane.” It could go to the same places as a Carbon Cub but climbtwice as fast, reach altitudes up to 28,000 feet, and cruise cross-country at 180 MPH while carryingfour people plus gear. Changes from the Wilga were so extensive that the FAA approved Mike's redesign asan experimental exhibition aircraft. The E-flite DRACO 2.0m was equally unique and astounding, and sinceits release, it's become one of the best-selling RC aircraft ever! But many pilots have asked for asmaller version that's more convenient, easier to fly, and most importantly–is more affordable too. TheMicro DRACO 800mm delivers in every way to offer the most practical and fun-to-fly replica forintermediate to experienced pilots yet!

Inspired by the incredible ingenuity and effort Mike Patey put into building the full-sized aircraft,E-flite delivered the first officially licensed scale replica of his ultimate bush plane – the amazingDRACO 2.0m. Since its release, many pilots have dreamt of and asked for a scaled-down version that'smore affordable, convenient, and easier to fly in more places and smaller spaces! The E-flite MicroDRACO 800mm is precisely that, and is slightly larger than UMX™ (Ultra Micro eXtreme) and otherultra-micro class models to better replicate the complex design while also including as many scaledetails as possible. It's still small and light enough to fly in large yards, small parks, sportsfields, and beyond. Yet, it also features many surface details, including molded-in rivets, panel lines,control surface corrugation, antennas, steps, wingtip “stinger” skids, and more. Functional featuresinclude LED navigation, landing and simulated strobe lights, flaps, and a steerable tailwheel.Oversized, tundra-style tires on the sprung wire main gear with simulated KING shocks soak up bumps andprovide excellent prop clearance while also making it possible to take off from and land on paved, dirt,gravel, and even the grass surfaces found at many parks and sports fields.

The high-power brushless outrunner motor can drive the scale 4-blade propeller with a 3S 300mAh batteryfor smooth and scale-like flight and even to perform basic aerobatics. Or you can use a 4S 300mAhbattery without any modifications or upgrades for better-than-scale vertical performance and moreaggressive aerobatic flying! The factory-installed Spektrum receiver and ESC deliver real-time telemetrydata, including overall battery voltage, current, motor RPM, and more, to compatible AirWare™ equippedtransmitters. Plus, the receiver is also equipped with exclusive and expertly-tuned AS3X so it feelslike you're flying a larger model – even in some wind – along with optional-use SAFE Select technologythat makes it easier to fly successfully after you've mastered flying at least one or two previous RCaircraft! Best of all, Micro DRACO arrives factory-finished with a premium, fully-painted plus decaltrim scheme and mostly factory-assembled with a separate one-piece wing that can be installed or removedquickly and easily with a single screw. It all adds up to offer an authentic – yet more affordable andconvenient – DRACO flying experience, including unmatched STOL (Short Take Off and Landing), scale, andbeyond flight performance!

Micro DRACO is a Bind-N-Fly® (BNF) Basic aircraft that includes a Spektrum receiver equipped withindustry-leading DSMX/DSM2 technology so intermediate to experienced RC pilots can use their owncompatible transmitter, battery, and charger. An ULTIMATE Combo including the BNF Basic airplane, aSpektrum transmitter, Smart charger, adapter, and battery – plus a copy of the RealFlight TrainerEdition RC Flight Simulator – is also available that includes everything needed to fly and saves youmore than $70 compared to purchasing all of the items separately!

Are you new to flying RC (Radio Controlled) aircraft? If you are, we recommend learning to fly with oneof our purpose-built trainer aircraft, such as the HobbyZone® Carbon Cub S 2 1.3m. Based on the CarbonCub Mike's wife, Chandra Patey, used to fly, it's equipped with exclusive and innovative SAFE technologythat makes it possible for almost anyone to learn to fly successfully! The Ready-To-Fly (RTF) Basicversion includes nearly everything needed to fly (except for a compatible LiPo battery and charger thatare sold separately or together in a money-saving Powerstage bundle) and is a perfect choice if you're anew RC pilot.
