Hello everyone,
This is the official account of IDRL on RCIndia and we would like to clear some of the questions that have been discussed here:
1. Is IDRL related to India Drone Nationals?No. IDRL is not related to India Drone Nationals in any way. IDRL or the Indian Drone Racing League is a separate drone racing league and we are also not related to DRL in any way. IDRL is financially supported by 1 Martian Way Corp., an aerospace and robotics company in Mumbai, India and we have detailed more about the IDRL concept on our FAQ page:

In addition to these, IDRL will itself be providing 5 complete sets of IDRL branded racing drones with 210 mm frame size and FPV goggles. These 5 drones will be meant exclusively for the Amalthea, IIT Gandhinagar students but may also be available to some of our pilots if needed.
3. Will there be prizes for the winners?Yes. There will be prizes and the exact amount and goodies are being discussed presently in association with the sponsorship cell at Amalthea, IIT Gandhinagar. We expect to be backed by prominent sponsors for the event to take this event to the highest quality of standards and fair game play and rewards for all our participants.
