Actual Thurst and the set Thrust in Python

Hi everyone,

I want to control crazyflie nano quadcopter under Python 2.7. I found the thrust value should be from 10001 to 60000. But the unit of actual thrust generated by four motors is Newton, could someone describe the relationship between the actual thrust and the values which shall be set in the python function "send_setpoint"?

Thanks

My understanding is that the values 10,000-60, 000 are in relation to the value applied on the pulse width modulation channel.

To work out the newton's I suppose a deeper look into the physics of it all would be required.
