With your nose almost on the glass, you have the best view. All the drones swooshing bey. Clashing into each other and banging against the wall. So exciting!⁣
Are you there next year?⁣

A few teams took on the tactic to place a Princes on the Queens palace. A two staged Queendrone. Once the battery of the flying fortress died out the tiny drone separated and became the Queendrone.⁣

Want to know the teams tactics, ask what setup they are flying or just meet them! No problem teams are just besides the battle arena. So you can easily talk to them!(and even ask for an autograph)😇😍⁣

One of the tactics last #DroneClash was to block the entrance by a flying net. Here you see an attempt by team Dipol. Not one! But two drones we’re catched!

[droneclash @droneclash]

So exciting! Drones chasing eachother dancing around the fire. One mistake and you get burned.⁣

Did you know after one of the battles the jury saw one drone ball from team bluuf by @flyability still flying in the arena while all teammembers had already left. The drone was still hovering there autonmously. 😲⁣

For now you enjoy yourself with the 2019 after movie.
But for 2020: Be there or be square.

Who new tennisballs 🎾 could be a counter drone measure. During the breaks the audience had the possibility to try and take down a Tiny Whoop. There was one kid that had a good throw and took home a price!🏆⁣

[droneclash @droneclash]

DroneClash is for everyone! We had teams from 5 different countries🇧🇪🇳🇱🇨🇭🇺🇸🇩🇪 We had man, woman, 'kids' and grandpa's. Who do you want in your team for next edition?⁣

[droneclash @droneclash]

There was only one battery that didn't survive the heavy battling and crashing during DroneClash.⁣
It was quickly put out with a bucket of sand by our fire watch. 👨‍🚒🔥👩‍🚒⁣

[droneclash @droneclash]

Everyone can put his hands on this counter drone tool: Toiletpaper🚽 Unfortunatly for this team it worked better in practice than during the battles, so they need some engineering tips for next year. What household tool would you use for DroneClash 2020?!⁣

[droneclash @droneclash]

So what's the damage🔥 after DroneClash 2019? Mostly props, some motor parts and a dead battery. So you see, a lot of the drones used this year can be upgraded to be used again next year!

Some people are just born for the stage. In the case for @JasonBradbury, this is more than true! We were more than honored to have him hosting our show.

WilliamThielicke and his team Dipol took the fishing theme a step further, by creating a weapon designed to entangle their opponent’s propellers. Their weapon was made of fishing tackle and won Dipol the €5000 prize for Innovation

[droneclash @droneclash]

Blue Phoenix and Bluff by @fly_ability tried autonomous flying
For the Dutch guys it didn’t worked as planned. Team Bluff made one of their drones fly autonomous during a whole battle. They were quite rightly honoured with the €5000 for best #autonomous flying.

[droneclash @droneclash]

The 3rd place battle was awesome. @UmmaGawd from Murica managed to hop his drone -without direct vision WHUT!- through the hallway of Doom, Death and Destruction. He gave it all to try and take down the tiny Queen of Speeddrones but to late. Speeddrones took home the 3rd prize.

@MissCMcB @hutch_stevenson Livestream is still on our youtube!

@darthmesh @RobotWarsUK @BBCNews The livestream is still available on our youtube.

Team Murica unfortunately lost the battle for third place.
But whatever, like they say themselves in this after movie they made: we had lots of fun and already a lot of ideas for next edition.
