Thrust/Force and Angular Velocity

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on deriving an equation for the horizontal speed of a drone based on roll/pitch angles, mass, and angular velocity. Key questions include the relationship between angular velocity and thrust, as well as identifying the specific variables related to propeller thrust calculations. Participants emphasize the need for precise equations rather than approximations. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding the propeller's characteristics to accurately calculate thrust. Overall, the thread seeks clarity on the mathematical relationships involved in drone dynamics.

I'm working on finding the equation for the horizontal speed of a drone given the roll/pitch angle, mass, the angular velocity, and possibly other variables. Though to calculate, I need a way to calculate the thrust that a propeller creates. What is the relation between angular velocity and thrust? Are the specific variables given from the propeller which are necessary to calculate the thrust? If so, what are they and how do they fit into the equation? Thank you in advanced.

Thank you, but I'm not trying to approximate the thrust; I'm looking for an equation.
 
What do you expect ? g-2 precision ? The links have plenty equations !

[edit]sorry, jargon: g-2 is a showcase of formula precision in electrodynamics.

Hi there, im studying nanoscience at the university in Basel. Today I looked at the topic of intertial and non-inertial reference frames and the existence of fictitious forces. I understand that you call forces real in physics if they appear in interplay. Meaning that a force is real when there is the "actio" partner to the "reactio" partner. If this condition is not satisfied the force is not real. I also understand that if you specifically look at non-inertial reference frames you can...
I have recently been really interested in the derivation of Hamiltons Principle. On my research I found that with the term ##m \cdot \frac{d}{dt} (\frac{dr}{dt} \cdot \delta r) = 0## (1) one may derivate ##\delta \int (T - V) dt = 0## (2). The derivation itself I understood quiet good, but what I don't understand is where the equation (1) came from, because in my research it was just given and not derived from anywhere. Does anybody know where (1) comes from or why from it the...
