The competition featured two distinct components, challenging Cadets to showcase their skills both on the ground and in the air. The competitions were conducted simultaneously. While the Cadets were demonstrating synchronized movements and impeccable attention to detail during the Drill competition; their counterparts piloted drones through a series of intricate challenges, navigating obstacles testing their piloting and coding skills.
