predicted range or flight time. #107

since minimosd already has a readout for efficency and battery capacity would 
it be possible to make a new field for predicted range or flight time? so if i 
have a 1ah battery and im doing 1k per 100mah it will say 10k remaining or for 
a multi-copter have it showing predicted flight time remaining.

Hello,

I have planned to make almost the same panel.
It supposed to give you back "you are able to fly home 1,15 times"

It supposed to calculate with wind and height also.

Unfortunately there is no space left for that.

I will try to save some space.

Thank you for sharing your idea!

Gábor

I dont think it would need much space, it already has efficiency (mah per km) 
and mah remaining so from those 2 numbers alone you could work out how far it 
will fly.

Sure if there is no wind and not calculating with glide distance.

That wouldn't be a problem with a multi-copter since you don't have glide time 
or wind to deal with when your calculating flight time.
