With thanks to 65
Drones.com for supplying our awesome race flags, we had a cracking turn out for the first FPV race of our FPV Fun meetup group in Singapore.
Races were organised as a series of time trials, with the fastest laps from the first two rounds of qualifying being used to select six pilots for semi finals in two groups of three, with the two group winners and the fastest runner up going through to the final. At least that was the plan - in the end, Semi Final Group 2 failed to complete the course and so Semi Final Group 1 progressed straight to the final showdown!
Results were as follows:
Pilot, Round 1 fastest lap, Round 2 fastest lap, Semi Final, Final
