He's doing amazing ! Although I still wonder about the conversation he'll have when he comes back

"Luke, why weren't you at school last week"
"I was winning the drone world championships sir"
"Don't lie to me boy, detention for the rest of term"
etc

Well done Luke ! :)

Looks an amazing setup they have built for you all over there.

the track for the finals looks superb. not too sure about the qualifying track, but the one in the dark looks cool

Glad he took my advice and took up racing. Taught him everything I know. ;D

Yep! Well done Luke. That finals track is something to see.
Don't do things by halves in Dubai do they. an you imagine that in the UK?
Good luck!

What's wrong with putting a couple of coats down for airgates? :)

UK guys should kill it, that's an easy track compared to what we are used to.

Bring it home Luke. ;D

Looks good, pretty challenging once you add speed to it.

stevec · March 10, 2016, 07:47:07 PM

Very fast and sweeping compared to the qualifier track though, I'd want a totally different setup for that scale of track...

Not sure what format they are running regarding how many laps needed ect.

That is a full throttle all the way track for Luke tho, so hope his battery lasts lol.

They are using totally different set up from the quali track.

I wonder if they have weeded out the right people because the track style is so different. Unless they wanted the people who could do the proximity stuff so they know they won't go to pieces on a big open layout like that and that lets them concentrate on racing each other rather than the circuit.
