2016 Euro Cup FPV Racing Championship Takes Off

Woohoo, it’s one day till the Euro Cup FPV Racing Championship in Ibiza, which takes place October 7th – 9th 2016. This is one of the biggest FPV events in the Drone Racing calendar. It is also a qualifier for the FPV World Championship, which will be held this year in Hawaii. 250 of Europe’s best pilots and teams will gather in Ibiza to take part in this awesome event. The pilots will be competing for a shot at the 4 Euro Race Cup Titles: Individual Drone Race Cup, Freestyle Cup, Team Relay Cup, and the Drag Race for the Euro 2016 Manufacturers Cup.

About 2016 Euro Cup FPV Racing Championship

The organisers of the event have even set up an Olympic-style village, called ‘The Champions Village’ where the pilots can stay. The village will become the centre of operations and where the after-show celebrations will take place with live music, food, and FPV fun! It will be a base where the pilots can meet up, share tips, swap crash stories, and set up for the participants, guest star FPV racers, and the FPV Stig. It is going to be FPV Racing paradise. Even the amazing and legendary Rotor Riot Team will be in attendance.

We are pleased to announce, that this year, for the first time, Scotland will be represented by a Scottish team at the Euro Cup. Due to the success of the FPV Scotland Go Fund Me page, Scotland’s first team will be making the pilgrimage to Spain to compete in FPV Drone Racing. The Scotland team was selected from the winners at the inaugural Scottish Open Championship which was held outside of Dundee this year. The five-man team have high hopes of Scotland making its mark in the FPV world.
