MultiGP packs April calendar with global FPV races across three continents

MultiGP’s April calendar is more than a list of races. It is a map of where FPV competition is gaining speed, with official events spread across Malaysia, the United States, Japan, Canada, and Estonia and split between Global Qualifier rounds, open-class championships, whoop racing, fun flys, and practice sessions.

The biggest pull for title chasers is the 2026 MultiGP Global Qualifier at Bukit Expo UPM, run by Underground.KL FPV Drone Racing in Malaysia. MultiGP says the Global Qualifier series opened March 27 and is open to all countries, with the road to the MultiGP Championship running through sanctioned qualifier races hosted by Tier 3, Tier 2, and Tier 1 chapters on the official annual track. That turns April into a pressure month for pilots who want points and positioning rather than just local bragging rights.

At the same time, the schedule shows how specialized the sport has become. Rippin’ AZ is staging its Winter Race Series Open Class Championship, 369DRONE is on the board with FDFCUP 2026第2回, Outer Heaven Drone Racing has its 2026 season round 4, Northern Alberta FPV League is running the Lazerte Whoop Race in Edmonton, and MultiGP Estonia is listed for EDRL26: S1 / Kollane. FPV Addiction’s April Fun Fly at No Quarter Ranch rounds out a slate that also includes chapter events at Peter Van Hasselt Park and other local venues.

That mix matters because not every pilot can chase every lane. Open-class racers can build momentum at big, fast outdoor meets; whoop specialists can stay sharp indoors or on tighter courses; qualifier hunters have to prioritize sanctioned stops that actually move them toward championship access. In a month this crowded, travel choices become strategy. A pilot chasing the qualifier path may skip a fun fly. A whoop racer may stay home and maximize familiarity. A traveling open-class contender may target the event that best fits equipment, budget, and points upside.

The scale behind the calendar explains why the schedule is so dense. MultiGP says it has more than 30,000 registered pilots and 500 active chapters worldwide, with active locations across Australia, Asia, South Africa, Europe, South America, and more. RaceSync handles racing slots and video frequencies in real time, a system built for a network that now stretches far beyond one country or one discipline.

That breadth is the story of April. MultiGP’s own history, from Chris Thomas founding the league in early 2015 to more than 5,000 races run since then, shows how quickly local chapter racing has grown into a global pipeline. This month’s calendar says the next step is not just bigger championships, but a stronger, more specialized ladder leading into them.
