Sport mode power percent

[vashon100]

Trying to understand exactly what the power % (in radar view) represents in sport mode?

There have been a couple related threads, but don't seem definitive. (In Sport-mode: what does "Power" mean in the GO app?) Seems to be rpm related.

I've done over 200 flights and use the other radar aspects frequently. Today I noticed on flying back in sports mode (probably at 40% batt) at full stick forward, it only showed about 45% power. Not sure if that should be a concern because it wasn't closer to 100%.

That is how hard the motors at that moment are working compared to their 100% rated output. If you fly into they wind at max speed and climb at max speed on a nearly fully battery, it will be closed to 100%.
