Drone Racing on the Quad

Student Activities

USU's DroneWorx Club will be hosting an informal fly/race day on the Quad! Stop by to see home-designed and class-built drones as they fly through an obstacle course. These pilots will navigate the course using First Person View (FPV) video goggles. We will have a TV to display the live video feed that the drone sees as it rips around the Quad. If you have your own FPV setup, a camera drone, or a small fixed wing, we may have a space for you as well.
