I just wanted to perform the thrust measurement for my 2300KV motors wih T-Motor 6x2 props using the ESC32, but unfortunately, ESC32 only allows up to 10.000rpm to be set through the CLI. This is far from the maximum of the motor range.
With 10.000rpm I just reach a thrust of 70g, from a maximum of above 200g.
How can I perform the thrust measurement?

Hi Duke
You could use PWM steps and measure RPM and thrust. I think that should work to calculate the thrust curve.
But you can not exceed 20K RMP for RPM_SCALE in closed loop. For higher RPM you would need a special firmware for the ESC32V2.
