In fact, an unusual model as a test case was created by Rick two years ago, but then, because of some technical difficulties publicity gimmick did not get the question, its commercial application did not go. Over the past two years flying dragon model has greatly improved.

Works dragon jet turbine which is mounted in the casing between the wings. She works at an aircraft engine which powered the proper fuel or kerosene.
Dragon made of plastic, plywood and places – aluminum. Important part of the aircraft is also the fact that it is fully radio controlled. Dragon flies as well as it makes the plane. Turbine provides movement through the air at up to 110 km \ h and reserve enough fuel for 10 minutes. From the mouth of the dragon team can blaze a real flame.
