Perform all kinds of tests

Endurance test

Define the throttle points you want to cover and how many time you want to repeat the sequence.

Find the Kv of your motor

Capture your motor's rotations per minute (RPM) and extract the Kv to compare your results with the figures in the manufacturers data sheet

Constant thrust test

While recording your data, adjust the throttle to aim for a targeted thrust with proportional integral derivative (PID).

Reproduce drone flight behavior

Program a custom throttle sequence for your motor , then replay it and reproduce the behavior of your drone in the lab.

Pass or fail test for quality control

Ensure propeller and motors are within specification by setting up a simple quality control script.

Use your imagination

We provide several pre-written scripts, but you can modify them or code your own tests in java script to meet your specific testing needs.

FAQ

Operating system: Windows 10 (Version 2004+) or Windows 11; Storage: NVMe or PCIe SSD; CPU: 8+ cores.

The Flight Stand software records data at a default frequency of 100 Hz for Standard equipment and 1,000 Hz for Pro equipment. While the sampling rate cannot be adjusted prior to tests, users can export the data at a custom, lower sampling rate after the test is completed.

Yes, Flight Stands are designed to be controlled wirelessly from any computer on the local network. See this article for instructions on how to setup wireless control.
