Yes, FPV drone racing is an exciting sport, allowing multi-rotors to fly fast. Pilots wear goggles similar to virtual reality headsets that give them up-close view of what their robots see as they cut around corners and narrowly avoid collisions. They use high-tech drones with front-facing cameras through neon gates in diverse venues. Each time their drones pass through checkpoint or cross the finish line, their drones earn points.
