December 7th saw the TWUK League head to BTW Club for an intense night of indoor FPV racing. Twelve pilots tackled a tight, fully 3D track packed with elevation, technical turns, and nonstop action. With sub-20 second laps, dramatic finals, and league points on the line, this round delivered edge-of-your-seat Tiny Whoop racing from start to finish.

Final whoop night of 2025 and a nugget of Antihype wisdom came floating back to me. In a competition, you'll usually only get 6-10 qualifying runs at a track to get your fastest time. So there is no point grinding 100's of packs on a single course. To prepare for a real race, you need to be able to read, memorise, and fly great packs very quickly. It's a skill worth training to help boost your competition results. So going into 2026 I'm going to set a track at each whoop nigh

Major changes to UK drone laws are coming from 1 January 2026. New class marks, Remote ID requirements, night-flying visibility rules, and a lower weight threshold for Flyer IDs will affect many operators. This article breaks down what’s changing, how the rules used to work, and what it all means in practice — including why indoor Tiny Whoop flying under 100g remains largely unaffected.

Try as I might this was the best run i had all night. I'm still not dialled in with these Air65's yet. I either need more stick time or a little more tuning to get them flying how I feel they should - any excuse to fly more! The winter stops people flying outdoors so things have gotten busy here in at BTW. But I'm keeping the tracks fresh with a large up launch gate this time and a long ladder down.  Both are easy to fly but getting them done quickly and precisley takes prati

Ooof its going to take some getting used to. These new BetaFPV Air65's are great but they fly different to what I'm dialed in to. Martian McFly set up my Diamond board and did a great job. Maybe I can ask him to tune this one? This week's track focused on splitting the track out over several features and then looping back thru them later. It seems a lot of sim tracks do this and while I'm not really a fan, it's worth practicing memorising tracks like this. It was a relativel
