Overview

About the Competition

Performing a firefighting task in emergency situations using a remotely controlled drone

Competition Description

In this competition, participants perform the task of extinguishing a fire in a model house using a remotely controlled unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV — drone). Teams install their self-developed firefighting device on their own or a serial drone and must fully extinguish the fire within the allotted time.

Competition Details

  • Team Composition 2 participants
  • Age Limit 16–30 years (main)
  • Max. Time 3 minutes
  • Task Extinguish a fire in a model house
  • Max. Score 100 points
  • Device Remotely controlled drone (UAV)
  • Extinguishing Method Water spraying or a special capsule
  • Drone Type Serial or custom-built

Innovative Approach

The firefighting device must be independently developed by the participants

Technical Conditions

Drones are placed on the launch pad (100 cm diameter) and navigate along the route

Safety

A safe fire simulation is used, and the task concludes with a safe drone landing

Mission

Competition Task

Lift the drone from the launch pad, locate the burning model house, and extinguish the fire

Drone Design Competition

Task Stages

Each team must complete the task in the following sequence. If the fire is fully extinguished, the task is considered successfully completed.

  • 1
    Take-off — Lift the drone into the air from the launch pad (100 cm diameter)
  • 2
    Navigation — Fly to the area with the model house along the designated route
  • 3
    Extinguish — Put out the fire using water spraying or a special capsule
  • 4
    Landing — Safely land the drone at the designated spot after completing the task
Field

Competition Arena

Drone route from the launch pad to the model house and course elements

START 100 sm OBSTACLE HOUSE MODEL FINISH Launch pad Fire location Landing zone

Launch Pad

100 cm diameter. Drones are placed on the pad and begin their flight.

Obstacles

One or more obstacles may be present along the route. Their location is announced on competition day.

House Model

The fire is in the form of a house model. Open flame or a safe fire simulation is used.

Landing

After completing the task, the drone must be safely landed at the designated spot.

Conditions

Competition Conditions

Key requirements for participation and drones

Team Competition

The competition is held between teams. Each team consists of 2 participants.

Launch Pad

Drones are placed on the launch pad (100 cm diameter) and start upon the referee's signal.

Firefighting

Carried out by water spraying or a special firefighting capsule (drop or placement).

Own Development

The drone's firefighting device must be independently developed by the participants.

Serial Drone

Serial drones may be used, but the firefighting device must be the team's own design.

House Model Location

The house model and fire location are announced on competition day. Obstacles may be present along the route.

Procedure

Competition Procedure

The process of running the competition and key rules

1

Referee Signal

Team actions begin upon the referee's signal. The operator is not changed during the course.

2

Task Execution

Maximum time for the task is 3 minutes. If the fire is fully extinguished, the task is considered complete.

3

Referee Oversight

Referees record each stage in the protocol. Errors and violations lead to point deductions.
