The flight began with the Pesim FPV Drone Racer taking off from runway 27R at KSEE Gillespie Field. The aircraft rolled down the runway, covering a distance of 1,297 feet, which accounted for 28% of the runway's length. The liftoff speed was 84 knots, and the aircraft lifted off the ground smoothly.

As the aircraft climbed away from the airport, it encountered local weather conditions with a temperature of 88 degrees Fahrenheit and winds blowing at 8 knots from a direction of 235 degrees. The crosswind and headwind components were both 6 knots, which presented a moderate challenge for the pilot. The enroute climb started approximately 1 mile west of Santee, California, and the aircraft climbed from an altitude of 1,367 feet above sea level to 1,785 feet, an increase of 419 feet, in just 1 minute. During this climb, the aircraft covered a distance of 2 nautical miles.

After reaching the desired altitude, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 2 miles north of La Mesa, California. This phase lasted for 2 minutes and covered a distance of 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started 3 miles west of Lemon Grove, California. The descent was from an altitude of 1,654 feet above sea level to 827 feet, a decrease of 827 feet, in 2 minutes. During this descent, the aircraft covered a distance of 3 nautical miles.

The final approach to runway 27 at KSAN San Diego International Airport was made from the east, heading 284.0 degrees, at an altitude of 806 feet above ground level and a distance of 2 nautical miles from the runway. The aircraft landed smoothly on the runway, which had a length of 6,871 feet. The threshold height was good, and the threshold speed was 75 knots, which was within the acceptable range. The touchdown distance was 665 feet, and the touchdown speed was 64 knots, both of which were good. The touchdown rate was perfect at -30 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown alignment was also perfect.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were a temperature of 72 degrees Fahrenheit and winds blowing at 10 knots from a direction of 240 degrees. The crosswind and headwind components were both 7 knots. The total landing distance was 1,788 feet, which accounted for 26% of the runway's length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled landing.

In conclusion, the flight was a success, with the Pesim FPV Drone Racer completing a total distance of 13 nautical miles in 7 minutes, using -1 pound of fuel. The aircraft performed well in various phases of the flight, including takeoff, climb, cruise, descent, and landing. The pilot's skills and the aircraft's capabilities were demonstrated through a smooth and controlled flight.

Landing on runway 27 at KSAN San Diego International Airport in the Pesim FPV Drone Racer

Landing Score 98.01 %

Landing Summary

The Pesim FPV Drone Racer successfully completed a landing at San Diego International Airport (KSAN) on runway 27. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 284.0° at a distance of 2 nautical miles and an altitude of 806 feet above ground level (agl). The pilot demonstrated excellent control and precision during the final approach, resulting in a good threshold height and a threshold speed of 75 knots.

Upon touchdown, the aircraft performed well, with a touchdown distance of 665 feet and a touchdown speed of 64 knots. The touchdown rate was particularly impressive, with a perfect rate of -30 feet per minute (fpm). The runway touchdown alignment was also spot on, indicating that the pilot had maintained excellent control and alignment throughout the approach.

The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were favorable, with a temperature of 72°F and a wind speed of 10 knots from 240°. This resulted in a crosswind of 7 knots and a headwind of 7 knots, which the pilot effectively managed during the landing. The total landing distance was 1,788 feet, which is only 26% of the runway length, demonstrating the pilot's skill and precision.

During the rollout, the aircraft maintained a very good alignment with the runway, indicating that the pilot had maintained control and stability throughout the landing. Overall, the Pesim FPV Drone Racer's landing at KSAN was a success, with a score of 98.0% reflecting the pilot's exceptional skills and precision.
