Drone speed calculation (theoritically) without doing flight test

Hello everyone!!

  1. I want to calculate (theoritically) the MAXIMUM SPEED of the Drone without flying and checking in GCS. How to do this?

Consider drone is flying using Remote controller ( NOT IN AUTO MODE)
2. In which mode drone will fly at its maximum speed? ( Normally in Sports mode drone would fly faster than the Loiter or pos-hold mode)

Thanks.

What is the weight of your drone, it’s drag coefficient, cross-sectional area at various angles, and max motor thrust?

Acro with full rate control (trainer disabled).
Too many variables to answer your question about max speed. Fly it and find out.
