The world's fastest drone hits record 179mph
Drone racing has become a big budget sport - and its biggest league has revealed the world's fast machine. Called the RacerX, the craft recently set a Guinness world Record of 179.9mph - despite weighing just 800 grams. The first prototypes of the drone burst into flames when hitting its highest point of acceleration, but the latest model, flown in Cunningham Park in Queens, New York, hit the record speed. The handbuilt drone completed the record attempt in Cunningham Park in Queens, New York. The Drone Racing League (DRL), set the record using the specially designed battery-powered remote-controlled quadcopter.
