Featuring 3 race tracks, over 3000ft apart, the 2016 MultiGP Nats broke pilot throughput records for a drone racing event. 24 pilots flying concurrently at different locations, with zero video issues.
Many believed him mad, crazy even. But the godfather of circular polarization, Alex Greve, proved yet again that, “simple physics” and rock-solid antennas are the backbone of FPV racing. With his supervision 18 pilots (16 analog, 2 digital) took to the championship course for a race of epic proportions never before seen or heard.
Pilots competing in the championship event were provided an unprecedented 4 hours of non-stop practice time for both groups. The Championship course was flown for a total of 8 hours of practice time. This level of of commitment to the pilot cannot be found at other drone racing events.
The 2016 MultiGP Drone Racing Championship debuted a world-first FPV night game, La Forge Domination. Shea Ivey, designer of the La Forge module, in cooperation with UBAD presented to pilots his latest creation – a team based, night-time FPV game based on capturing control points. LED “flags” must be captured by flying in proximity for a few seconds to “capture” that point and change the color to your team’s color.
MultiGP is the largest professional drone racing league in the world. Because of this, MultiGP hosts frequent competitive gatherings and casual events within its extensive network. The Organization currently has over 30,000 registered pilots in addition to 500 active chapters worldwide. MultiGP nurtures its Chapters by providing tools, guidance and community support. Due to this structure drone racing is fun, organized and rewarding for pilots, Chapter Organizers and spectators.
