Tesla S Plaid v 200mph F1 Drone: DRAG RACE

How’s this for a crazy drag race line-up?!
We’ve got Mat in the Tesla Model S Plaid, and he’s about to face off against the world’s fastest film drone! It’s been built by Red Bull so they can keep up with F1 cars, and we’re about to see just how powerful it is against a production car!
So let’s check out the stats, starting with the Tesla. It’s powered by 3 electric motors, and these combine to produce 1,020hp and 1,420Nm of torque! This power is sent to all four wheels, and it’s also pretty heavy, tipping the scales at 2,200kg.
And then we come to the drone. Whereas the Tesla comes in at 2,200kg, the drone weighs just 985 grams! It may only have 8hp, but when it’s that light, there’s no doubt this drone will absolutely fly down the straight!
But of course, we know the Tesla will absolutely shoot off the line, while the drone has to fly upwards before it can head forward. Will that be its downfall? There’s only one way to find out - LET’S RACE!

[@48Boxer]

[@Styxen_Stones]

You can also tell by the sound, its electric with immediate torque and doesn't have to fight for traction. The pitch of the scream it makes should be consistent when at full throttle. Hear the difference between 3:43 and 6:26

[@randombanter7553]

Matt mentioned that it has over 5000hp per tonne and then immediately forgot when the drag races started. It was over before it even started. Secondly top fuel dragststers with similar(very loosely used) much HP per tonne can do mid 4s and if you minus the 2 seconds it takes to lift off and tilt you're about 1/2 a second off

[@40uldierb0Y]

I noticed it quickly since redbull already published a video of the drone following max, and liam

[@caleidoo]

@@randombanter7553 Yeah I get he wants to make "a nice video", but this was quite ridiculous. The drone was very obviously holding back and just at the very end jumping to the win. Even with acting and pretending "it's close, who's gonna be...." ... it was just too obvious to not be cringe.

[@JC130676]

Well, seeing how the dragster will hit the drone's top speed within 2 1/2 seconds and 1 1/2 seconds later hits 480 km/h (300 mph), the dragster will do to the drone what the drone did to the Tesla.

[@SuperSpruce]

Too easy for the dragster, how about F1 drone vs a specialized drag *bike*?

[@teresashinkansen9402]

@@JC130676 And so they build a drone made specifically to compete against top fuel dragsters. I mean that RedBull drone is meant to go around a track and keep up with a F1 car thats an endurance of about a minute, a drone with an endurance of 7 seconds means it can put out much much more power to weight ratio and so highly possible to beat the Top fuel.

Not going to happen, imagine crashing one down on the circuit, or worse, on a F1 pilot at 300kmh. I would be very surprised if they approved it. Not that I don't support your enthusiasm though.

[@dco1019]

@@MightyCalves also true. when they tested the prototype of this vs the f1 car on RB official channel something in fact did go wrong. it seemed to lose steering and veer off course and they pressed a 'return home' fail safe and it returned home. but you know, once something like this would be deployed in a race ittl be tested and 'fail safed' to the max... It wouldnt be a 100% safety but close enough to make it viable. I mean basically theres absolute deathmachines above the circuits in the form of choppers as well (if anything would happen)

[@rockstarratul5280]

[@xymaryai8283]

with drones, braking in a straight line is very difficult to interpret, because the way we accelerate isnt just throttle, we pitch forward as well, thats an equal part so to completely stop, we usually circle, but we can also point backwards without turning, but it means we can't see the ground. a really confident pilot could stop it much quicker, easily within half the car's distance. but in general, the drag is the only thing slowing us down in a corner, so we intentionally overshoot so we can turn around more to accelerate the other direction.

The first pull seeing the drone nose drop I was thinking Sandbagging haha

[@jarbeefis]

I'm curious, do the propeller tips go supersonic at that drone's max velocity?

[@Jaker788]

I would assume not, just because it's really bad for performance when blade tips get into that new regime of flow. You start getting a bow shock in front of the blade and that restricts flow, the further supersonic the further that shock wave is in front on the travel direction of the blade. The tips transitioning into transonic and supersonic may also just break the blades from the instability and transition only at the tip. Jet turbo fan tips are just riding the line before getting transonic, jets that get into multiple mach numbers have to use afterburner and ram jets.

[@jarbeefis]

@@Jaker788 Oh, that actually makes sense. Thanks for answering.

[@RPAS1234]

Great explanation ​@@Jaker788

[@Barefootclimber]

I was wondering how the Drone got beat, with the first 3 runs. And then my expectations were met with the 4th run. A nice Mind blower for anyone who doesn't know how fast drones can get. Literally looks like a Dragon Ball Character in real life. And drones don't have so much of a limit as cars do. Since they are not heavy and do not require friction with the surface alongside gravity to keep them grounded. These factors mean the drone gets to max speed real quick without limitations holding it back.

[@ouroborus6951]

Well except controllability with and wind and air pressure

Although I'd be scared to control a drone so fast. Accidentally smacking into someone is instant death.

[@NothingXemnas]

It is worth adding that some production drones could ALREADY "keep up with F1 cars", but they would drain the battery so fast that they would die in just seconds; a full lap lasts minutes. The Red Bull F1 Drone is capable of accelerating that fast while carrying a MASSIVE battery assembly inside, enough to fly for 3 minutes. Of course there are compromises, but that is all acceptable.
