Changhyeon Kang from Korea is the new FAI World Drone Racing Champion 2019 crowned in Ningbo (CHN)
The talented young drone ace Changhyeon Kang fought off stiff competition to climb to the top of the podium in Xiangshan Ningbo, China, alongside Australia’s Thomas Bitmatta, 20, in second place and French pilot Killian Rousseau, 15, in third.
In the Women’s classification, the winner was once again Wanraya “Milk” Wannapong of Thailand – who is just 12 years old. She successfully defended her title to finish ahead of Korean Siyun Park, 15, and Teng Ma, 34, of the USA.
