  • WE FOSTER DRONE & eVTOL INNOVATION

    Our rules are designed to provide a safe competition while attracting new and sustainable technologies, making us the perfect test bed for innovation in the UAV-sector

  • WE ARE THE FUTURE OF SPORTS

    Advancements in technology have only recently made UAV racing possible. eVTOL racing will be the next big step in the history of motorsports. We aim to be at the forefront of this futuristic sport

Procedure

The Team

Since 2025, Student AirRace has been integrated into EUROAVIA Munich, the local chapter of the European Association of Aerospace Students. The event is now organized and managed by the EUROAVIA Munich board. This allows us to benefit from the chapter’s organizational structure, experience, and international network – ensuring a strong foundation for future races and an even greater reach across Europe.

  • We are flying in the A3 class defined by the EASA. This means our UAVs are officially drones with a weight of less than 25kg and don’t need certification or a SORA approval. This makes it very easy for teams to get started.

  • The drones will be Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) weighing less than 10kg and a maximum size of 150 cm x 150cm and a fixed propeller configuration.

  • UAV racing has been a very popular sport for some time now. Currently there are even manufacturers working on manned eVTOL racing leagues. We calculated that a drone built according to our regulations will have a topspeed of 180kph and acceleration of four times gravity.

  • Student AirRace is purely a student competition. Only teams consisting of students from universities are allowed to join the competition.

  • Student AirRace is the technical team of EUROAVIA Munich and spearheaded by the board. It is legally one entity and fully integrated.
