The entire Strijp-S area (former Philips factories &amp; offices) was taken over by cool and creative activities, all coordinated by <a href=\"http:\/\/ditfest.nl\/blokkenschema\/\">DIT (Do It Together)<\/a>. We had the pleasure of partnering with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/FormulaFPVracing\/\">Formula FPV<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/monkbouldergym\/\">MONK bouldergym<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/DroneZoneBreda\/\">Drone Zone Breda<\/a> in an activity with adrenaline involved: <a href=\"http:\/\/ditfest.nl\/dit-is-een-drone-race-2016\/\">DIT is een Drone Race<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>So, why all the excitement about Drone Racing for Shapeways? First of all, with 3D printing it becomes super easy to optimize your drone\u2019s design for better performance during the race. But as you can see in the video below of the live broadcast of the event, drones crash. So you need to make new spare parts. And that&#8217;s where 3D printing truly kicks in.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mAhFusIM5y8\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Flying a drone in First Person View (FPV), does something special with you. The sensation of flying through your direct environment, the thrill of the race, the obstacles you pass through\u2026 The adrenalin rushing through your blood to help you respond quick enough to prevent your drone from crashing. The only element missing to get into the zone, is music.
