My goal is to do long range autonomous missions, so I want to find the best cruise speed. This is an RMRC Recruit with a Matek 765 and an Airspeed sensor. Battery was “2200” 3S LiPo. Motor was 2206-2300 with 5x4.5 3-blade prop. Camera is DJI Air Unit.
I used QGroundControl and did a test where I went a distance in both North/South directions at 15, 20, 25, and 30 mph. The wind was 7-12 mph and mostly South.
I am not sure how to do this, but would love to know the most distance covered per voltage drop for each of the four speed settings. Then I can use that for my future long range flights.
