The Pesim FPV Drone Racer successfully completed a landing at LIMW Aosta Corrado Gex Airport, showcasing a high level of precision and control. The aircraft approached the runway from the southwest, heading 73.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,447 feet above ground level.
Upon reaching the runway, the drone landed smoothly, with a threshold speed that was slightly below the target at 69 knots. This indicates a controlled descent and a good understanding of the aircraft's speed and altitude. The touchdown point was 51 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which is a relatively minor deviation.
The touchdown speed of 61 knots was within the acceptable range, and the touchdown rate of -188 feet per minute was also good, indicating a controlled and stable landing. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 6.4 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments to the aircraft's navigation system or pilot technique.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 26°C. The total landing distance of 806 meters was 54% of the runway length, which is a relatively efficient use of the available space. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the aircraft was able to maintain a stable and controlled trajectory after touchdown.
Overall, the landing was successful, and the Pesim FPV Drone Racer demonstrated a high level of precision and control. However, some minor adjustments may be necessary to improve the alignment and touchdown point accuracy.
