We evaluate the accuracy to be expected for the measurement of free fall acceleration of antihydrogen in the GBAR experiment, accounting for the recoil transferred in the photodetachment process. We show that the uncertainty on the measurement of gravity comes mainly from the initial velocity dispersion in the ion trap so that the photodetachment recoil is not the limiting factor to the precision as a naive analysis would suggest. This result will ease the constraints on the choice of the photodetachment laser parameters.
