About DroneMath
DroneMath is the flight arithmetic: minutes per battery, distance per flight, the charging log for the shoot, and the mapping coverage per pass.
DroneMath exists because drone planning runs on battery arithmetic that marketing rounds up — real flight time is 70–80% of advertised, and the shoot schedule lives on the honest number.
Every calculator on DroneMath shows its formula and its assumptions on the page, so you can check the math, reproduce it in a spreadsheet, or argue with it. Inputs are processed entirely in your browser — nothing is sent to a server, and there are no accounts.
DroneMath is an independent, ad-supported project. We are not affiliated with any lender, brand, agency, or the sources we cite (established practice standards in the hobby). If a number looks wrong, the contact page reaches a human who fixes it.
What makes DroneMath different
- Your numbers never leave your browser. Every calculator on DroneMath runs entirely on your device. We never see, store, or transmit the figures you enter — there are no accounts and no server-side processing of your inputs.
- Published methodology. Each calculator page explains the exact formula it uses and the assumptions behind it, so you can check our work or reproduce it in a spreadsheet.
- Free, forever, without a paywall. DroneMath is supported by advertising. There is no premium tier, no email gate, and no upsell.
