It very much depends on how fast the drone is going and how far you need to push the location error down in the “mix”. It’s not the only source of error. Without any “smoothing” you get an update rate at 4 / 0.15 = 26 samples a second to be at the stated limit. If you need to push it down to a tenth of the combined total, then the straight up number would be 260 samples a second. Is this drone targeting something? If so, 15 KPH would be quite slow. Speed is very much application dependent. Like a lot of these things, we know very little about the details of the system. Thus all we can do is make random guesses about key parameters.
