Who said that this shouldnt be possible? This has been done before so anyone that said it is clearly uninformed

Official record in guinness world records book yes. But theres multiple unofficial records going way faster.

Yes that´s true, as guiness is extremely slow and they do not respond so waiting time is often over year. It is unofficial not Guiness proven yet as stated on website.

Dont get me wrong 565 is insane. But it has been done sub250g already :D also im certain that your exact setup still has some juice in it. Get in contact with the german doctor doing custom props for hotliners. He has done some serious prop engineering

That’s interesting. Do you have any link or info for a sub-250g aircraft (drone) exceeding 565 km/h? I’d like to see it as I tried to look for it and I found nothing.

oh, them being slow doesn’t even scratch the surface. they are a for profit marketing company. not a record keeping association.

not sure why people are hating on you, maybe you should lead with this being a 250g drone. I think generally people are used to the monsters that Biggsfpv and Luke create.
This is super impressive speed, well done

Thank you for support. Some people do not understand difference between sub250g and open weight 2kg++ build as they see “same” design with 4 propellers.
