How Powerful is Mind Control? - Box with Brain inscription on head of anonymous woman

In FTL, Mind Control (MC) level 1 is fine and dandy, and it is what I use almost exclusively. However, Mind Control levels 2 and 3 claim to increase HP and power.

  • Do higher levels of MC last longer?
  • How much bonus HP is a MC'd unit given, and does it last after MC wears off?
  • How much bonus damage/power is a MC'd unit given?
  • Is it worth these higher levels of MC very often?
