This has resulted in the arrangement of dedicated tournaments related to drones with high prize money. Usually drones are equipped with 4 motors and usually of the configuration of “X” or “+”, but in this particular case, the configuration which is being implemented is of the form of alphabet “H” so as to accomplish forward movement not the upward thrust as in the case of delivery or photography drones.
The main aim of this type of racing is to provide high speed to the drone and use the speed and maneuvering skills to outpace the other drones. In future, it is predicted that drone racing would very much be as popular as formula racing.
