The Pilot Mind to host the PA State Whoop Championship Drone Race

This Saturday, March 21, 2026, at 11am The Pilot Mind (1192 Sathers Dr, Pittston PA 18640) will be hosting NEPA Quad Racers Eastern Championships, at its state-of-the-art drone academy. Pilots who have competed at any drone race in PA have been qualifying for this event all winter. These pilots use FPV (first person view) goggles to see camera feeds from the drones that make it feel like they are sitting in the cockpit of a high performance aircraft. A very special thank you to John at Pilot Mind, and the other event sponsors: WeBleedFPV and Foxeer Hobby.

NEPA Quad Racers is a part of the MultiGP Drone Racing League. MultiGP chapters welcome all pilots of any skill level to come and compete, learn, and safely race their aircraft. Micro drone racing cultivates interest in model aviation, which is the gateway to starting a career in the rapidly expanding drone industry.
