> increases exponentially at higher speeds Exponential with regards of the speed? That sounds odd. So I looked it up: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drag_equation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drag_equation F = (1/2) * \rho * u^2 * C * A F: drag force u: flow velocity relative to the object So, quadratically.
