Drone Soccer
Drone Soccer
Drone Soccer is a team competition played with sUAS (small Uncrewed Aerial System) aircraft enclosed in protective spherical cages. Matches take place within a netted playing area with teams standing outside each end zone. Each team flies three drones: one Striker, the only drone that can score by flying through the opposing goal, and All-rounders that pass to the Striker and defend their own goal. The team with the most goals in a three-minute Set wins that Set, and the team that wins two Sets wins the Match.
Flight Simulator Competition/Challenge
Flight Simulator
The Flight Simulator competition is designed to test piloting skills and aircraft management in a virtual environment that is as safe and realistic as possible. Participants have the opportunity to demonstrate their flying ability and decision-making in a variety of situations to achieve the highest score.
AI & Robotic Hackathon
AI & Robotic Hackathon
AI & Robotic Hackathon 2026 is a local online hackathon held on 26 November 2026 by Drone Association Thailand.
