Drone racing is a fast-paced sport where pilots control small, high-speed drones through obstacle-filled courses, often using first-person view (FPV) goggles to see from the drone's perspective. The races test precision, reflexes and split-second decision-making as pilots navigate tight turns, gates and tunnels at speeds that can exceed 80 miles per hour.
Combining elements of video gaming and real-world piloting, drone racing has grown into an international competitive scene, complete with professional leagues, sponsorships and live-streamed events.
