Also Ran (Melbourne Drone Race with crash) / Anthrax - Chromatic Death

32,247 Views · Posted 9 years ago

Finalglideaus (https://www.youtube.com/finalglideaus) and I had a ball in Melbourne on the weekend. Bradmill is an awesome place to fly and race. We were all pretty quick but I kinda lost my enthusiasm after I was LAPPED by FG and Stunt Double (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnL5GliJo5tX31W-7cb83WQ). An unforced error ate my prop one lap before the finish... So I was the one sad DNF Panda.

Thanks for the great day Chiggs, Chris and co, and for all the Melbourne crew for making us feel so welcome (sorry there are so many of you; I kinda lost track of names and aliases). Thanks too to Paul and Thomas from BMSWeb (https://www.youtube.com/BMSWEB), and Shams my old __/|\ buddy for more awesome flying and ferrying us about.

I just realised that's two Anthrax-soundtracked videos in a row for me, but it fit the race time perfectly. It's not deliberate... but may well be subliminal rebellion against "da fking dubstep". Enjoy.
