The **Drone** by Discraft is an overstable midrange designed for players who want to conquer wind and obstacles with maximum stability. Its pronounced fade makes it ideal for approach shots around trees and in headwind situations where other midranges might drift. Experienced throwers use the Drone strategically for shots requiring a reliable leftward finish without unwanted turn. Available in multiple plastic types—ESP FLX, Big Z, and ESP—it offers subtle variations in grip and stability, with the FLX version being slightly less overstable due to its flexibility. In flight, the Drone exhibits a predictable trajectory with minimal room for deviation. Even on powerful throws, it holds its overstable line and resists turning over. With a glide rating of 3, it doesn’t drop abruptly but maintains controlled forward momentum before its strong fade (4) kicks in. Some players feel it flies closer to a speed 6 disc, reinforcing its utility role. The deep, slightly beveled rim sits comfortably in the hand, allowing for precise hyzer releases. Compared to other overstable midranges like the Innova Gator, the Drone offers more forward carry, while its stability is slightly less extreme than the Westside Anvil. For forehand throws, the Drone delivers reliable flex shots where anhyzer releases transition smoothly into a predictable fade. On backhand, it handles strong hyzers and remains stable in crosswinds. Intermediate and advanced players appreciate it as a utility disc for technical fairways and approaches between 60 and 90 meters. Beginners may find it less accessible, as it demands power and technique to fully utilize. If you’re looking for an overstable midrange that can bend around obstacles and defy headwinds, the Drone is a dependable choice.
