Kontronik Jive ESC has telemetry feature built-in in the dedicated port (JMP label). This allows telemetry data transmission to the unit.

1 Telemetry Cable

To allow the telemetry data transmission the Telem UNI cable is required. This cable is available in our Eshop.

2 Interfacing

Connect the Telemetry cable to the primary Spektrum satellite port in the unit. Smaller Spirit units will utilize the one native Spektrum satellite port.

From this moment, everything should work.
