The Discraft Drone in ESP plastic with the SE Bar Stamp is a very overstable midrange built for headwinds and strategic hyzer shots, not straight lines. Discraft calls it the beefy cousin of the Buzzz, and once you throw both back to back you will feel exactly why.

Flight Numbers: 5 / 3 / 1 / 4

ESP holds its grip through wet and cold rounds without turning gummy, and on the Drone it takes a long time to soften up, so the overstable flight you get on day one is close to the flight you still get a year later. It beats in slower than most Discraft plastics, which is exactly what you want on a disc built to fight the wind.

Thrown on a hyzer it dives into that hyzer immediately and settles rather than flipping flat, which makes it a reliable way to get around a corner without a big skip on the far side. On an anhyzer it holds turn for a moment before fighting back hard. It is not a beginner's first midrange. Intermediate and advanced players use it as a utility disc for headwind approaches, forced hyzers, and any shot where a Buzzz would turn over on them.
