Questions and Answers
it would be nice if manufacturer shared a step model so it would be easier to design 3d printed parts for it. (minitalon's popularity is in large due to the large number of 3d printed modes available)

finally got me a Reptile Dragon 2. I've been wanting one since they first came out. I wasn't a fan of the price when it first hit the market, so I waited. In the box, you will find all parts are bubble wrapped. I removed everything from the box and did a dry fit, as you can see in the 2nd picture. The manual, as with many, is very limited in detail instructions. After watching a few videos, I think I will pass on the Vtail as it has x2 tail configuration. Everyone that video review this bird said the Vtail doest work well. The tail section is held on with four screws, and the nuts have already been glued in place inside the fuse at the attachment point. I didn't like the wood floor pieces that came with the kit. There is no recess for the two pieces and nothing in the manual. These pieces should've been cut to fit tight inside the fuse. This i a miss for me, and Reptile RnD should've fixed that issue. I'm going to mod the standard tail so it can be bolted together rather than gluing it together. This will help with transporting it, and if I ever re-sell it in the future, it will make it easier to pack up for shipping. I've already started the build by gluing the inner wing joints on first. I'm using gorilla glue white to assemble this bird. Fyi, at all the glue joints, make sure to sand both ends and wipe them down with denatured alcohol as this planes has excess mold release wax, which won't allow the glued to bond the foam pieces.

For the money there is no better built RC plane available. The foam is better than all others.

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.

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!!!
