The calculation outlined above is actually power drawn from the battery. Power output getting to the ground is indeed dependent also on efficiency (motor, ESC, and losses in the wire). But unless you can measure mechanical power with a dyno while measuring input power from the battery, and graphing the differences, it's all but impossible to calculate.
