I found a formulation like "mgh" for energy consumption of drone at time t, that m stand for weight, g for gravity and h is height. I think it makes sense, but what about hovering? thanksZaranoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4352001774241033758.post-45649580016386897062015-05-08T06:24:49.851-07:002015-05-08T06:24:49.851-07:00Yep, this article is true, if you fly straight for...Yep, this article is true, if you fly straight forward the whole time, you'll save energy.SuperJamieQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10141182265462283982noreply@blogger.com
