Where it all started….

I have been passionate about RC since I got my first car the Tamiya Avante. Growing up in New Zealand, I moved to Japan in 2010. From here I returned to RC after a long break and continued the obsession. I bought a Tamiya Dark Impact in 2012 and from there the collection grew to include many larger scale vehicles. Now I have a variety of cars mostly HPI Racing products, a 1/12th scale Nitro Monster King, a HPI Hellfire SS and a few variations of the HPI Savage including an unbuilt Savage SS kit! My collection continues to grow and grow and as of 2023 I have a Super 5sc Flux, Baja 5SC, HPI Vorza S Flux Truggy and Buggy.

After doing a lot of maintenance on these cars over the years I began thinking how could I improve the vehicles. I wanted to improve or modify the Savage so this is where I started. After taking an online CAD course I developed an interest in CAD/CAM so I began modeling some parts in CAD, making small improvements to the parts then making some of my own designs. As parts were becoming more and more scarce for the Savage I thought maybe I could start redesigning some of these parts. I then started getting ideas and requests from friends in Facebook groups and Savage community and this kicked off the desire to start a brand.

I am very proud to introduce Draco Precision -Custom RC Products, a brand that allows me to share my ideas and products with the RC community. I will be continuing to design and modify parts for the HPI Savage and plan to expand into other models like Arrma, Tekno and the Axial Yeti XL.
