Why Red Bull’s 220mph F1 camera drone is a game-changer
A rapid flick right of the steering wheel ensues to correct the slide as the driver maneuvers down the Hangar straight in a flash of blue, red, and yellow. The remarkable speed of the car on the soaked Silverstone track, along with the heart-stopping effort to regain control, is captured in a striking new spectacle as a camera drone follows Verstappen. Red Bull’s Advanced Technologies division, in collaboration with Dutch Drone Gods, developed this groundbreaking drone capable of following an F1 car at top speed around the grand prix layout. FPV drone pilot, Shaggy FPV, recounts the year-long journey of creating this cutting-edge drone that mimics the classic F1 broadcast magic from the 1980s and 1990s. The Red Bull Drone 1, the third prototype in the series, aims to reintroduce the sense of speed lost in modern F1 broadcasting, offering viewers a thrilling new perspective. This innovation represents a significant advancement in how F1 television images are captured and presented to audiences worldwide.
