In Serpukhov for the first time held the race of drones in the simulator

The event was a significant step in the development of technological sports in the city: they competed in the skills of management in the digital environment. The space of the center for several hours turned into the epicenter of intense struggle - rows of computers, pilots with remote controls in their hands, full concentration on the screen.

At the start came 29 young pilots aged 10 to 17 years. The geography of the participants went beyond Serpukhov: children from Domodedovo and Chekhov joined the competition. This line-up highlighted the interest in the new discipline far beyond one municipality and gave the tournament the status of an inter-municipal event.

The competitions were held in the QuadroSim Sport simulator, where the physics of the drone flight is as close to real conditions as possible.

The competition program was built on the classical tournament scheme and included three key stages. At the qualifying stage, the pilots went to the track wave after wave, trying to squeeze the maximum out of each attempt: the table of results on the screen was updated after each lap, and the positions of the participants changed literally before our eyes. The semi-finals were a serious test - here any mistake meant the loss of a chance to reach the decisive stage. The culmination of the day was the finale, followed with tension by the whole hall: the audience caught every maneuver, and the atmosphere in the room literally hummed with emotions.

According to the results of the intense struggle, the pedestal was distributed as follows: Fyodor Solovyov (Serpukhov) took the first place, Gleb Jakun (Domodedovo) won silver, Georgy Kaminsky (Serpukhov) became the bronze medalist.

The event was organized by the Sports School “Zubrenok”, the Administration of the Serpukhov City District and the PVPC named after Prince Vladimir the Brave.
