Hey Guys, This is a little off topic but it's awesome fun!
I have created a website dedicated to this new sport! (If you can call it that) :)
To give you an idea of what it's all about I have attached some videos from our first race season.
Events are now starting to pop up around the world so log in and get involved!
Enjoy...

This is awesome! Just came across this while looking into racing.
I'm planning on racing the micro FPV quads with a friend of mine. We decided to go micro so we could race all together, instead of one at a time. Whenever the slow boat from China gets here we will see how that works haha.
It is good to see your video though, gives an idea as to what to expect from trying to dodge obstacles at high speed :D
Great flying guys!
Hi Phil,
We are not far off starting the 2013 season!
I'll let you know when we get going so you can come and have a look. I'll be posting videos etc over on FPVMultirotorracing.com
Scott, Juz and all, did you know about the Melbourne based group? http://diydrones.com/group/melbourne
We have had a few meetings so far and things are heating up. Can we crash one of your meets and see what you guys are up to?
Oh yeah I've been watching Juz's channel. It's the birth of pod racing! Very cool.
Eric,
That would be very cool!
Hasufel,
Yes the whole comp has been very close!
Frank,
Very hard to break bones racing multirotors! :)
I just added a section to the forum for finding people in your area.
The side by sides vids are very good. Thanks Scott! So close in laptimes :)
We filmed the tracks first so that the guys could watch the videos a few times before going to the track. It helped allot in memorising where to go.
These side by sides are also interesting.....

Great stuff guys and congrats, it's the future of "video games"!
Maybe paint/mark the waypoints for us noobs watching the vids, as it got a bit scary realizing one had to pass through the tree there and in between stuff, slowly building up a mental map of the racetrack ourselves? Also, maybe add a real time tracker and a map?
Enjoyed watching the 4 videos as the tension was building up. Great ending!
Better than Wipeout, can't wait to join the league someday :)
Looks like a lot of fun. It's a new motor sport!
Thanks guys!
Hey Magnus, All of us met on a forum so that's why I set up the site.
If everyone who likes it signs up to the website you will probably find a few people in your area to race! :)
