How Can I Use a Web-Based Speed Gauge to Monitor My Drone’s Real-Time Performanc

I've been flying multi-rotor drones for a while now, and I'm always looking for ways to get more accurate and immediate feedback on their performance during flights. Lately, I've been exploring the use of web-based tools to help with this, and I came across something called a "Web-based speed gauge"

From what I understand, a web-based speed gauge can be a real-time monitoring tool that helps display the speed of my drone directly through a web interface. This seems like it could be incredibly useful, especially during complex maneuvers or when I'm trying to push my drone to its limits while still ensuring that everything stays within safe operational parameters.

Here's where I could use some advice: How exactly can I set up or integrate a web-based speed gauge with my existing drone setup to monitor the speed in real-time while I'm flying? I'm using a standard flight controller and a typical setup that includes GPS, but I'm not entirely sure how to connect or sync this kind of tool with my system.

I'm particularly interested in any recommendations or insights from other users who have successfully used a web-based speed gauge in their drone operations. For example, is there a specific gauge you would recommend that works well with the kind of telemetry data we get from typical flight controllers? How do you handle the data transfer to ensure that the speed readings are accurate and without delay? Are there any specific challenges or limitations I should be aware of when using such a tool during flights?

Additionally, I'm curious about the impact this real-time speed monitoring has had on your overall flying experience. Has it significantly improved your ability to control the drone, especially during high-speed flights or when performing advanced maneuvers? Any tips on what to look out for when using this tool would be greatly appreciated.

Looking forward to hearing how others have used this technology and what the practical benefits have been in your day-to-day flying. Thanks in advance!

Hi!  Not clear if you are simply wanting live real time or (also?) wanting to record it.

Personally for speed measurement and other data I have generally used GPS data via the radio control's inbuilt telemetry from its receiver/transmitter link, so no need for web based systems.

As a freestyle quad pilot mostly now speed is not very useful, I used to measure my faster planes/slope gliders, but never bothered with Helicopters nor now quads.
