Our requirements keep competition relatively even while maintaining a safe environment for our pilots, audience, and venues.  Each aircraft weighs less than a lightbulb and has guards around each propellor.

We only fly Tiny Whoop sized quads.  All aircraft flying in our events must meet these specifications:

  • Under 70mm frame size (diagonal from motor-to-motor center) with ducts/guards around each propellor
  • 35mm propellor size max (larger allowed for first races)
  • Under 35g take-off weight (with battery)
  • 25mw video transmitter power max
  • 1S HV battery max, any capacity
  • Motor:  any!

Examples of quads you can buy and fly:  Tiny Whoop, Air65, Mobula6, Meteor65 (including Pro), AcroBee65, QX65, Inductrix

Examples of quads we prefer you not fly:  Mobula 7, Air75, Beta75(x), Tiny Trainer, any unducted quad

Worried if you can fly your quadcopter?  Our basic rule is, if your aircraft doesn’t meet our requirements, check with us on how you can!  We’ll help! You can probably still fly any ducted quad 2″ or smaller prop size for your first race (i.e. tinyhawk, cetus, Mobula 7, Air75, etc). Bring it anyway!

If you do not have a Tiny-whoop sized quadcopter/drone of your own, you’re welcome to borrow one of ours (first-come, first-served) for your first event or two!

We ask that all pilots of all ages learn the basics of charging, plugging in their battery, and operation of their radio controller BEFORE arriving at the race. Otherwise, please feel free to watch for your first race or two and get some tips from your fellow pilots! Race control cannot offer full tutorials to new pilots due to time constraints, unfortunately, but we’ll do our best to help with basic questions. This Playlist and this website, and this website, are a great place to start!

We do not have any age restrictions!  If you’re 12 or under, we need your parent or guardian to be there while you fly.
