GUINNESS WORLD RECORD Fourth Of July Drone Show! (1,000+ Drones) #drone #droneday
Drone’s took center stage across the country for Independence Day. As some organizers move away from traditional fireworks, drone shows are more than capable of stepping in. Watch this Guinness record busting drone show from Sky Elements Drone Shows.
This Fourth of July, history was made. Sky Elements Drone Shows achieved the GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title for the largest aerial sentence formed by multirotor/drones. 1,002 drones armed with bright LED lights took flight and dazzled the crowd with a show paying tribute to the history of the United States.
The centerpiece show of Sky Elements’ Fourth of July weekend allowed the company to break its own record by producing 40 shows over the holiday weekend using more than 10,000 drones.
The 10-minute record drone show surpassed all expectations and dazzled the audience, becoming the largest drone light show ever flown in Texas. The aerial ballet of drones showcased intricate formations of critical moments in American history and brought a sense of wonder and awe to audiences of all ages.
