calculate

A bit of math:

Mobula motors + props making around 90-100g of thrust at 50%

Mobula8 weight around 110g with battery 550 mah An ok-ish ratio of thrust to weight is 4:1

Thrust/(camweight+drone weight)

400 / (16+110)= 3.17...

Hence to have a proper flight you'll have to be above 50% throttle most of the time.

It might fly pretty stable with proper PID tuning and filtering but your batteries will burn (maybe even literally)

info

Thrust is the force that moves an aircraft, rocket, or vehicle forward.
It is usually generated by:

  • Engines (jet, turboprop, rocket)
  • Propellers
  • Ducted fans

Thrust opposes drag and allows the vehicle to accelerate or maintain speed.
