Paweł Laszczak, a 19-year-old from Małopolska, made it to the Drone Racing League – the most prestigious drone racing series organised in the United States. The young racer trained for a long time to get to the top; his passion started as early as primary school. The Pole’s drone reaches a speed of 200 km/h, reaching it within a second. It is controlled using FPV goggles.
“At first it is quite a strange feeling, because you see from a completely different perspective. But that’s what made me know straight away that I wanted to do it,” – Paweł Laszczak reports.
With 12 competitors from all over the world taking part in the DRL, it is certainly a great honour for a young Pole to qualify for the competition. The competition is professional in nature and consists of 14 races held in football and baseball stadiums.
