The biggest quest and games company in Russia “Claustrophobia” was looking to expand in a new direction — an interactive attraction, in which you would pilot a real drone using a special simplified control with FPV glasses. The tube for flights is placed under the ceiling in large rooms and you can compete in speed, agility and finesse with your friends.

The main goal in the development of this drone was structural strength and minimal maintenance. To achieve this, we carried out many simulations and real tests methodically. We settled on with a supporting frame and a protective carbon–fiber dome. For the main shock–absorbing parts we chose EVA material. The drone survived many falls and blows (crashtests at the speed of 40 km/h; dead-drops from 15 m height).
