About out drones

We use the DJI Avata and FPV platforms for our races. There are several factors as to why, but they mainly come down to power, reliability, and safety.

We encourage all professional FPV pilots to bring their own platforms for both our Test N Tune events as well as our “Night Flights” as these tracks will be designed for higher powered drones (up to 7” frames)
