Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q3 i? MIA showed no reliable change in either lap time or failure count from pre- to post-coaching. → Wei Wang 2026

q3 · i? · causal · r2
Paired pre/post tests for the Minimally-invasive Assistance baseline group in the same user study. Neither outcome showed reliable change: lap time p = 0.62 (dz = -0.15), failure count p = 0.38 (dz = -0.28); both printed effect sizes fall below d = 0.2-equivalent negligible magnitude or are non-significant.
"For MIA, paired tests showed no reliable change in either lap time (mean reduction 6.2% withp= 0.62andd z =−0.15) or failure count (mean reduction 1.11 failures per lap withp= 0.38andd z =−0.28)"
Discussion¶

- L2C outperformed both the Rule-based Fading and Minimally-invasive Assistance baselines on lap time and failure count — related
- L2C coaching significantly reduces learners' lap times and failure counts from pre- to post-coaching in FPV drone racing — related
- Learners rated the L2C coach higher than both baselines on safety, performance, agency, and satisfaction — related
