RC Track or Drone Course Curtains

Transparent and black modular curtain RCdrone course – “Indoor RCdrone course with clear upper panels and black lower modular curtain walls, creating a fully visible yet safe track in a warehouse.”

Modular curtain walls let clubs and meetups create safe, flexible indoor RC or drone courses without permanent construction. Perfect for rented gyms or warehouses, they define pilot, spectator, and track zones. This guide covers common challenges, key benefits, layout ideas with examples, recommended products, FAQs, and practical next steps for building your course.

How Modular Curtain Walls Solve Key Challenges for Indoor Tracks and Courses

Setting up an indoor RC or drone course comes with unique challenges. Open spaces offer freedom of movement, but they can pose safety risks, create layout issues, and distract. These challenges are especially pronounced in rented gyms or shared warehouses where permanent changes are not allowed. Modular curtain walls provide practical solutions that keep spaces safe, organized, and adaptable.

Common Challenges in Indoor RC and Drone Spaces

Indoor courses in gyms or warehouses can be hard to manage. Without clear boundaries, RC cars or drones may enter spectator areas, creating safety concerns. Noise can travel across the room, making it difficult to focus during practice or competitions.

Organizing zones for pilots, charging stations, and equipment is also challenging when the space must remain temporary and flexible. These issues can make events stressful for organizers and limit participants' enjoyment.

How Modular Curtain Walls Solve These Challenges

Modular curtain walls offer simple, effective solutions. They can be installed quickly to create clearly defined lanes and zones. The partitions act as safety barriers, help control noise, and improve visibility. Their flexible design allows layouts to be adjusted for different events or club meetings.

Compared to permanent walls, they are cost-effective, reusable, and ideal for spaces that require frequent adaptation. This makes setup easier, safer, and more enjoyable for everyone involved.

Testimonials

"AKON had the quality that was lacking with our previous industrial curtain supplier. We run a fortune 500 company that relies on zero downtime. The AKON industrial curtain system just lasts longer and is made of better materials. I informed purchasing that if its not from AKON, then we don't want it!" - Fred Dixon 

"The AKON wash bay curtains look great! No one was as helpful or as knowledgeable as your staff and that was a big deciding factor for us. When the wash bay curtains arrived the installation was flawless. We now have a wash bay curtain that we can be proud of and that will last for many years." - Jackie McGarb

"THE BEST!!! Hands Down!!. The curtains have stronger grommets and the vinyl is the best quality that we have seen. The service is also top notch and we have answers to our questions instantly. You can tell this is a well run company and they have taken care of all the projects that we have thrown at them." - Mike Richards
