Measuring Wind Speed Using the Internal Stabilization System of a Quadrotor Drone

This article proposes a method of measuring wind speed using the data logged by the autopilot of a quadrotor drone. Theoretical equations from works on quadrotor control are utilized and supplemented to form the theoretical framework. Static thrust tests provide the necessary parameters for calculat...
