In this episode you will learn:
- Load factor is the G-force stress on a drone's airframe during maneuvers.
- A 60-degree banked turn imposes a 2 G load factor, effectively doubling the drone's weight on its structure.
- Aggressive maneuvers, especially in wind, can push a drone beyond its structural load limits.
- Drone performance charts assume a standard atmosphere and must be adjusted for density altitude.
- High density altitude (from high elevation, heat, or humidity) reduces drone performance and its ability to handle high load factors.
