During the Red Bull Air Race in Wiener Neustadt, Austria, Schiebel’s Camcopter S-100 UAS conducted a flight display.

Returning to its Austrian roots for the sixth race of the season, the Red Bull Air Race partnered with Schiebel in Wiener Neustadt, which is where the Camcopter S-100 production facility is located.

“The history of our company is strongly connected to the location of Wiener Neustadt and we are excited to be partnered with Red Bull Air Race 2018,” says Hannes Hecher, CEO of Schiebel.

“This presents a wonderful opportunity to bring together unmanned and manned aviation and give the audience a taste of the expertise and vision represented by the two sectors.”

Schiebel says that the Camcopter S-100 UAS had two starting slots per race day. Along with performing an impressive flight display, the Camcopter S-100 also provided a “breathtaking” aerial overview of the venue for the audience, which was simultaneously broadcasted on big screens.
