Then you can get inertial measurement unit readings and record the propeller RPS and divide filtered yaw (+ direction) acceleration by filtered sum of the RPS^2 spinning in the +yaw direction - rps^2 in the -yaw direction. What you find at maximum torque for this quotient is the efficiency ratio. Your motor torque per rps^2 follows. | |
