There's an area near me where drone flyers meet on weekends and fly
courses. They have a series of hoops - like huge croquet hoops - set
up. The drone has to follow a route and pass through each hoop to
complete the course. Best time wins.

The route is set up so it requires some tight turns, and some of the
hoops allow very little clearance.

I have some friends in Broca who took up drone flying. To qualify for
their club, they must be certified by a club approved instructor. Flying
through hoops is but one of several competitive items.

The view reminds me very much of the video shots from the motorcycle
riders in the Isle of Mann TT
