Can optimizing battery management and motor control extend the battery life of drones?

Most commercial drones fly about 10 minutes away. Drones can also fly long distances in about 30 minutes. In order to fly for 10 to 30 minutes, more than 90 minutes of charging time is required. This battery problem is the biggest obstacle to the expansion of the drone market. This is because leisure toys underestimate the factors of drones. Many companies are now developing AG10 battery that can run for a long time. In addition, some companies are working to extend battery life by optimizing battery management and motor control measures. In 2015, there were about 3 million drones mainly used for consumption. It is expected that 10 million drones will be sold by 2020. It will also grow into a major market segment. However, it is not easy to predict this technology. A recent IHS-market survey showed that about 50% of drones on the market have a battery life of no more than 30 minutes, 35% of drones can fly between 31 and 60 minutes, and only the remaining 15% of drones or drones below the level can fly for an hour. "Flight time is the top priority for drones," said Stelios Kotakis, senior analyst of data transmission and management services at IHS Markit. For quadcopters and professional drones, as well as drones used in enterprises, flight time is even more important, especially for operations beyond the visible line of sight. Express delivery companies hope that drones can extend battery life, and they are using drones for trial deliveries to see how far the drones can fly. At present, the specific implementation plan for optimizing battery management and motor control to extend the battery life of drones has not yet been completed. I believe that these two technologies can be completed in the future to improve the battery life and flight time of drones.
