I think the big thing is that drones are a lot easier to control. Previously in RC racing it would be racing a helicopter or plane where now we have stuff like the Gemini. Drones like this make RC racing more intuitive and the cameras/computers are getting a lot better in recent years so you can really feel like you're in the cockpit of these tiny things. To some extent it may be a fad, to others it might be here to stay. We won't know until maybe a year or two from now. I think it will depend on if everyone grabs one this christmas season.
