Drone racing is a fast-paced, adrenaline-filled sport where pilots race small, agile drones through challenging courses at high speed. To get started, you’ll need a racing drone (also known as an FPV drone), a controller, FPV goggles for live viewing, and a simulator for safe, low-cost practice. Many newcomers start by flying in simulators to build skills before taking to the skies.
Learning to race takes coordination, spatial awareness, and practice. Start with basic flight maneuvers, then gradually advance to navigating gates and tight turns. Joining a local drone racing club or online community is a great way to connect with experienced pilots and get advice on equipment, safety, and race-day tips.
