Dear Drone Engineers, We just released a preview version of our next big update on the preview branch. < This new update adds Nimbatus upgrades, a snake boss and many more features. Please report all bugs you find and tell us what you like and what you don't like about the new features. Discord To give us feedback, talk with the developers or show off cool drones, please join our Discord Server :) https://discord.gg/6wu92F6
