Worlds Fastest 100m Ascent Made by Quadcopter Mach 1 FPV 2017-03-11 | The time is still unofficial, and it will not be truly official until after it's recognized by Guinness. With that said I think it's safe to say I definitely beat the old record. The setup: 100m of 80 Lb (spider wire) fishing line. The quad was tied to one end and the huge orange bobber was tied to the other end. When the quad takes off I start the time. When the bobber lifts up, I stop the time. For those wondering why the time I had with rotor riot was faster (2.66), to be honest I'm not sure why the quad was slower this time around. During the test with RR I calculated a top speed of around 80-90MPH, however during the official attempt I calculated a top speed of 60-70 MPH. I didn't really change anything about the quad between now and then, so I'm not sure if the difference is environmental or if perhaps the battery wasn't punching as hard. Ultimately I'm not sure what caused the quad to be slower this time around, but if you have any theories feel free to post them in the comments below. parts list: rotorbuilds.com/build/2869Rotor Riot video: youtu.be/4qwfoBDgEDMInstagram: mach1fpv
