Bronx’s Drone Fair Zooms in Pelham Bay

Jay SilverbergNYC Tech1 month ago3 Views

Pelham Bay buzzed last night with the Bronx’s Drone Fair, flying NYC’s spring at a park lot. Pilot Tariq Evans looped quads as 300 gawked, a $10 ticket fest of props. It’s borough wings—pure BX vibe, rotors hot. A kid crashed a rig; a pro nabbed a skyline. ‘Bronx flies—this is it,’ Evans says, tweaking controls. The field turned airfield.

The fair’s fresh—March 30’s start, it tripled since RSVPs, packing curbs by 3 p.m. Evans, a Soundview flyer; last night’s crowd hit max—drones whirred. A latecomer nabbed a remote; wind blew—NYC grit glowed. Runs one day—flight ruled. #BronxDrone trended; Queens wants a prop.

Some griped—’Too loud,’ sniped a normie, dodging buzz. A prop snapped—fixed quick; lift held. A rival’s pitching a Mott Haven zoom, splitting rigs. Still, 400 stayed—wings reigned. Pelham Bay’s never zoomed so bold.

Evans hints at a monthly run, maybe a race if spring bites. ‘NYC’s sky—this owns it,’ he says, packing gear. The fair’s a Bronx win—grit meets thrust. It’s a drone rush; catch the next. Bring a remote—airs call.
