Chasing Sprint Cars at the South Texas Race Ranch with a FPV Drone - 1st Race #racetrack #racecars

We were offered a chance to fly our drones and chase cars around the track at the South Texas Race Ranch, a very rare chance at that. Race on Texas flies drones here & broadcasts the live stream of the races to the Internet for it's customers. This race car chasing activity had been on our bucket list of things to do with drones, ever since @maxair420 and @TammieJean started showing how to do this on their channels.

Because of the live stream broadcast, this track normally doesn't let other drone pilots participate, but for some reason they decided to show mercy on us and allow it this time. So we thank the race track management and the owners of Race on Texas for allowing us to experience this wonderful activity. We flew the DJI FPV Racer Drone in Sport Mode for this video.

This is the first in a series of race car chasing videos from that Saturday night down in Corpus Christi, Texas.

Things we learned that night. Batteries and more batteries. Need a way to recharge them in the field fast enough to keep flying. We ran out of the 5 DJI FPV drone batteries and switched over to the DJI Avata drone next. That drone couldn't even try to keep up with the race cars on it's best day. After we had exhausted the Avata batteries, we switched over to the DJI Mini 3 Pro drone. It was faster than the Avata in Sport mode, but didn't have the acceleration to keep up.
