If you build a drone "whoop" 1s , well, the current draw is very high,

but if you buy the same components in RTF , the current draw is lower.

Does the firmware play a role?

how big of a difference are you getting?

im my build = 1 min max
in RTF = 3-4 min 😦

same battery

using the same components?

Yes
but one = hdzero vtx
one = analog vtx

same build ...

Will it make a difference?

#

any extra weight and current draw will affect flight time

#

you could also try to give it a better tune, and make sure the ESCs are running at least 48kHz
