I don't know anything about the Dragon, but my buddy has a Classic Flash and I can't imagine the Dragon would be better. I've seen him stall it on landing, roll off into the uncut tall grass at our field and just abuse the thing in general. A couple of times I've accused him of trying to kill it, he has yet to succeed. It flies great and is built like a tank. This summer he sent the P120SX, that's been in it since day one, for bearing service after something like 36 hours, hard to stop flying when nothing's wrong.
