U.S. Drone Soccer: Have a Ball (or Five)!

In this episode, the Roswell Flight Test Crew speaks with Lina Pineros, the director of operations for U.S. Drone Soccer. The sport, which originated in South Korea, helps high school and college students develop technical and flight skills through an e-sports competition. Each team consists of five pilots assigned a specific role, such as the striker – the only participant able to score goals – as well as a forward, sweepers and defense. Individual rounds last for three frenetic minutes, with a brief break to swap batteries and effect repairs to damaged aircraft before resuming play. Three rounds constitutes a match, with the winner determined by cumulative score.
