SGDC BQE #1 - The First BQE Event Of The 2023/24 Season - Aug 20th (Sun)

SGDC are proud to host the first British Qualifying Event of the 2023/24 season so please join us for lots of flying, loads of fun & the usual shenanigans at our home here at YOSC.

Our BQE is open to all abilities of pilots so you don't have to be a top racer to take part and have a good time. 

You can fly any FPV racing drone, it doesn't have to be a 5 inch race drone (but we would recommend it) you can fly your freestyle rig or even a toothpick and anything up to 6s - Just check it conforms with the BRDA technical specs . 

We are limiting this event to only 30 pilots to ensure that everyone can get in a good amount of flying and qualifying rounds. 

Sign-up will open Sunday 2nd of July @8pm and will be completed via iFPV for payment.

Event location - https://yate-outdoor-sports-complex.co.uk/


Important Info

We will be releasing the track for our BQE on the Velocidrone simulator and a video fly through for people without the simulator on our social media platforms, we’ll also provide a track layout diagram on or around the 23rd of July so all pilots can fly the track and practice some of the elements before the day. Even though the track will be as close to the sim as possible, it may be subject to change if necessary. 

If you are unsure on anything or have any questions, feel free to message us at SGDC on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/southglosrc)


Timing and Event Format

Our event will be run using an ImmersionRC LapRF timing system linked to Livetime. We will also be live streaming our event to YouTube and LiveFPV so that you can easily keep track of the standings. We will be using the standard BDRA BQE race format (qualifying rounds leading into triple finales for all) 

Sign-up will open Sunday 2nd of July @8pm and will be completed via iFPV for payment.
