This is Drone Racing



Multirotor or ‘Drone’ racing has started to pick up momentum as a sport, this is my attempt to document it in it’s early stages.

  1. Nice video and so true what you say about crashing and then you can fix them unlike the ones off the shelf.

    BAD NEWS ON THE WAY…

    I have just been checking up on the EASA Prototype Commission Regulations on Unmanned Aircraft Operations and I am not happy of the proposals at all.
    I believe this is a draconian act of regulations that are going to destroy a fantastic industry and a hobby and its innovative solutions for us all.

    Do a search on "EASA Prototype Commission Regulations on Unmanned Aircraft" and see how they are going to destroy our hobby.

  2. Don't mind me asking… But where are you guys from? can't help but notice a strong Aussie accent mate.. I was in west, south australia and perth last year and barely picked up on FPV racing there… wish I met you guys when I was over there..

    Great video btw~

  3. ah look, it's new so the important thing iz that it needs to be baned because new is scary and who know what the kids are up to. someone is going to get hurt or killed and drugs! kids smoking the weeds and killing each other over the twitter with drones from communist China. WHAT ABOUT JESUS! it's just no good.

  4. Well Done!
    Thank you for making such a nice video.
    I have been uncomfortable with the word, Drone, but not so much with Racing Drones. Your documentary shows that it is not a negative word. Maybe we should embrace it.

  5. Nice documentary, we need to step away from the D word. The definition is wrong none of these craft are automated, it gives the wrong impression to the "they just want to spy on me… I'm an ignorant bastard…. I want it banned" crowd.
    What we need to push is it takes time dedication and research to built a racing quad, if Drone has a context it's over in DJI's part of the field?
