Add influence of wind to rotor drag #461
Conversation
@MaEtUgR Could you please review and approve? We need to get faster in closing things out. |
@LorenzMeier I really try to follow up as quickly as possible but I was out for the last 3 days over the weekend and my day off and looking into it now. |
It flies somehow strange compared to the pure force wind against the base_link. I have to do some more testing tomorrow. |

Thank you @Jaeyoung-Lim! That really helps to find corner cases 👍
Thanks, @MaEtUgR ! |
This PR adds the influence of the wind to the motor model, by considering wind as part of the calculation of rotor drag. This is important since the majority of the drag is usually generated from the rotors in case of multirotors, and is influenced by wind. Thrust variations are not considered.
Also, @MaEtUgR have brought up examples where some issues only appear under the influence of wind. This PR would make it easier to see wind influence of multirotor models.
Testing
Below shows the model taking off and being influenced under the wind of 5m/s
Additional Context
This is a follow up PR of #375 , which added wind influence to the lift drag model
