Winsted Fast Track Rumble

Welcome to the 2026–2027 Flight Before the Feast Aerial Drone Competition!

On behalf of the students, coaches, volunteers, and staff at Pearson, we are excited to welcome you to the 2026–2027 Winsted Fast Track Rumble! Thank you for joining us and being part of what we hope will be an exciting day of competition, teamwork, and learning.

The Winsted Fast Track Rumble competition is designed to provide middle and high school students with a fun, challenging, and high-quality competitive experience through the REC Foundation Aerial Drone Competition. Throughout the event, students will have opportunities to demonstrate their skills in drone piloting, programming, teamwork, communication, and strategic problem-solving.

Whether this is your team’s first competition of the season or one of many stops along the way, our goal is to provide a welcoming and well-organized event where every participant has the opportunity to learn, improve, and perform at their best. We encourage all teams to demonstrate good sportsmanship, compete with integrity, support one another, and embrace the challenges and successes that come with competition.

Thank you to all of the students, coaches, mentors, volunteers, families, and supporters who make events like this possible. The time and effort you put into preparing teams and supporting students are what make the Aerial Drone Competition program successful.

Please make sure that all required Participant Release Forms have been completed for team members prior to attending the event.

Good luck, fly safely, have fun, and we’ll see you on the field at the Winsted Fast Track Rumble!
