Busy October for Drone Racing
October is a month of change as the leaves begin to fall. But the Drone Racing action kept going strong throughout the month. The News Team will tell you all about a big race in Tennessee at the 2017 Mid-South Heli Invasion. 901 FPV was the local chapter who hosted the event. From the weather to the racing, the race was filled with all sorts of excitement! Tune in for the full story.
In the Lone Star State, over 50 pilots from several different states converged for some top shelf competition. Toxic Props, with the assistance of the Northeast Dallas Speed Addicts, hosted this first ever Team Chapter Wars event. With almost 100 spectators, this multi day event showcased some incredible team racing action. Be sure to watch to find out how the event ended, and who was victorious!
Young Inventor’s New Drone Camera Mount
Most drone pilots are just happy to capture the aerial beauty. But the News Team will talk with a young inventor who wanted to take it to the next level. The News Team talks with Dan T Designs to find out more about this interesting product. What is unique about this camera mount is that it looks at your DRONE, for a whole new perspective. Strap in, and get ready for a wild ride!
