1S Standardized Performance
Standardized 1S Test Setup
Rating of a flight controller for both efficiency and power. Higher is better.
Overall performance relative to the flight controller's price. Higher is better.
Estimated total power required for all four motors to hover. Lower is better.
Estimated thrust remaining after accounting for the quad's standardized weight. Higher is better.
Overall
62.6
Equal balance between hover-power efficiency and excess-thrust performance. Normalized so the best FC is 100.0. Higher is better.
Value
63.5
Overall performance relative to the flight controller's price (40% excess / 40% efficiency / 20% price). Normalized; higher is better.
Hover Power
40.2W
Hover Current × 4.0V × 4 motors — estimated total power to hover. Lower is better.
Excess Thrust
176g
(Max Thrust per motor × 4) − 128g standardized quad weight. Higher is better.
