Drone Racing Takes Flight Again....
This past saturday the Genoa Drone Team competed in their last competition of the year at Lake Erie West Challenger Learning Center. The Team Boogaloosters, being comprised of Savannah Wick, Daymon Cruz, and Matthew Robinson, took 3rd Place overall. The other team, Bantam Jets, comprised of Nick Weaver, Joe Hart, and Brandon Trumbull received 4th. The Drone Racing Organization is happy with their final standings, despite various technical difficulties, new equipment, and tough competition, they surely cemented their standings as a fierce competitor in the drone racing world.
