Market Driver:
Rising Number of Drone Racing Events
The rise in number of racing drone events is one of the major factors boosting the adoption of racing drones across the world. Some of the emerging countries such as Korea, Japan, and India have also been taking initiatives to launch different types of drone racing events across their respective regions. Further, the presence of companies such as DJI, iFlight Innovation Technology Limited, Yuneec, Chengji, and others is another major factor supporting the launch of new drone racing events across such countries. For instance some of the major drone racing events are listed below:
- In October 2023, FAI Sponsored World Drone Racing Championship was organized in Namwon Sports Town complex, Jeollabuk-do, South Korea wherein world’s top 115 drone pilots competed each other to win the global title.
- In July 2023, MultiGP organized an International Open Drone Racing Championship wherein more than 220 pilots from across the world participated to compete under 8 tracks and the whole event lasted with more than 9,000 Li-Po batteries used.
- In 2022, MultiGP organized a championship wherein more than 125 drone pilots competed for 5 days wherein more than 240 qualifying races held that made more than US$ 12,000 in cash and other prizes were awarded.
- In December 2022, MultiGP announced the schedule for six main events of its drone racing leagues for the year 2023 that were scheduled between April 2023 to October 2023.
Such events have been catalyzing the sales of FPV drones and its components across different regions. Moreover, such events are also generating awareness among the millennials that is adding up the new pilots every year for different drone racing events. In addition, many events of drone racing leagues are scheduled for the year 2024 from MultiGP which is yet to be announced from the organization. This is further expected to generate new demand for FPV racing drones during the coming years.
Segmental Analysis:
Based on components, the market is segmented into batteries/FPV goggles, motors/propellers, camera/sensors, and others. The batteries/FPV goggles segment held the largest share of the market in 2022 and it is expected to retain its dominance during 2022 to 2030 as well. Further, the camera/sensors segment is anticipated to register the highest CAGR in the racing drones market during 2022-2030. The main factor behind the largest market share of batteries/FPV goggles segment is the higher price, technology integration, and it is one of the key controllers for the pilot that allows them to have the visibility for drone operations during any race. Moreover, the demand for batteries/FPV goggles segment is also driven due to the fact that batteries are used in the most quantities during a racing drone event. For instance, in July 2023, MultiGP’s International Open Championship announced that more than 9,000 units of lithium polymer batteries were used during the event. Furthermore, more than hundreds of drone racing events are organized every year across different countries which is also driving the growth of racing drone components across different regions.
