Detailed Latency Analysis
⚡ LatScore Ratings
LatScore combines button and stick latency and adds a jitter penalty, so stable timing scores better than spiky latency. Lower effective ms = better grade.
LatScore (Cable)
Weighted latency rating for cable connection with a jitter penalty for unstable response.
Flydigi Direwolf 4 A (9.2ms)
Flydigi vader 5 pro A+ (3.2ms)
Flydigi vader 5 pro wins — 3.2 ms vs 9.2 ms (65% faster)
LatScore (Dongle)
Weighted wireless dongle latency rating with jitter-aware stability penalty.
Flydigi Direwolf 4 A (9.8ms)
Flydigi vader 5 pro A+ (4.2ms)
Flydigi vader 5 pro wins — 4.2 ms vs 9.8 ms (57% faster)
LatScore (Bluetooth)
Weighted Bluetooth latency rating with jitter-aware stability penalty.
Flydigi Direwolf 4 D (34.7ms)
Flydigi vader 5 pro D (26.3ms)
Flydigi vader 5 pro wins — 26.3 ms vs 34.7 ms (24% faster)
