The fastest ground speed by a remote-controlled (RC) micro drone quadcopter is 358.36 km/h (222.6 mph) and was achieved by Yao Siqi, Guo Jiyuan and Zhang Wei (all China) in Tianjin, China, on 28 December 2025.

This team of 16-year-old students drew inspiration from the current record holder’s attempt video and spent six months preparing for their own challenge. Using a self-designed quadcopter and conducting months of rigorous testing, their achievement stands as a powerful example of knowledge sharing and innovation within the tech community.
