Real racing physics, real consequences

Drone Racing times three laps through a course of ordered gates. Because every aircraft simulates real thrust, drag and momentum, your line actually matters.

The H5 Apex racing airframe carries the fleet’s highest thrust-to-weight ratio for the fastest gate-to-gate acceleration.
