Flying with competitors
If a few simple rules are followed, quad racing can be a lot of fun.
1) NEVER land near another pilot.
This is an absolutely golden rule. Landing your quad near another pilot, especially one who is at a
significant distance, is like screaming in the ear of someone listening to a whisper at the other side
of a room.
2) NEVER walk back to the pilot area with a powered-up quad
This is similar to 1), and is the most common cause of issues at the race track. When retrieving a
model, unplug the battery before walking back to the pilot area.
3) POSITION the launch and landing zone
as far from the pilot area as possible his ensures that collisions at race start don’t affect other
pilots.A distance of at least 10 meters is recommended, more than this is a bonus.
4) ALWAY Swarn in-air pilots before powering up a quad
Warn pilots, and be ready to power down IMMEDIATELY if a pilot is affected, and wait until he
lands. Remember that it only takes a second or two, when flying race quads at speed, to crash and
damage the quad, and whatever (whoever) it hits.
