I was considering the Eagle Tree w/ optional RPM sensor instead of a simple tachometer.
But I just replaced my cyclic servos w/ HS 65 MGs, so now I don't have to worry about the above choice. (broke!)
Anyways, from that sample graph, one could interpret...
- His 6s battery pack is holding up nicely under load, must be good condition.
- He knows 3.666 A were drained from the pack. e.g. if it is a 3600 mAh pack, I'd say he flew too long! ;-) This shows he flew for just over 4.5 minutes, so if he drained more than 80% out of the pack, he could shorten his next flight.
- How does flying style affect amp draw. e.g. hovering vs. tic-tocs require different amp draw.
- He would know if he is pushing his ESC too hard. e.g. if it was rated at 100A, and it was cutting out, this would explain why, since he is hitting 115A peak
- Increasing your head speed adds responsiveness. But if you are running wood blades, they may not be safe above 3000 RPM. Going from 11T pinion to 12T, 13T, etc... will increase your headspeed. But what is your headspeed? The graph shows you he is around 2100
