Hi,

I was wondering if we could change the airspeed when the drone is in OFFBOARD mode? I feel like the drone is flying too fast in this mode and was wondering if I could slow it down using some sort of parameter.

Thanks!

Hi,

Which offboard mode are you using? PX4's offboard mode just takes commands from a companion computer, so if you want to slow down an offboard mode you'll have to look at the code for whatever's giving those commands and slow it down there.

@rohitpillai You can also try to play with the `*VEL*` parameters from QGC.
