Re: [Paparazzi-devel] cannot reach 100% throttle on takeoff

I see, I have 4S batteries with a nominal voltage of 14.8 and fully charged they are about 16.8V. If I understand well it means that the current does not drop enough to reach 14.8V. I'll see if there is a more elegant way to fix it.

Thanks!

Hi Joseph,

could you check if you have defined:
    <define name="POWER_CTL_BAT_NOMINAL" value="11.1" unit="volt"/>
if so, you probably have a slightly higher voltage than 11.1V on takeoff - leading to an reduced takeoff power to match the thrust you would get at 11.1V.
You could just delete it, but be aware that 100% throttle than has different thrust values depending on your input voltage…
This is usually not a big problem but not the nicest way to do it.

cheers Tobi
