ESC Telemetry is feature that allows you to display and log data from your Electronic Speed Controller (ESC) directly at the Wave Radio. The ESC Telemetry is mediated through the Spirit unit as these are able to read the data and communicate with both receiver and ESC at the same time.

Spirit Wave has support for all common Telemetry capable ESC protocols.

Spirit W1 units can be interfaced identically to Spirit GT units with all ESCs.

1 List of supported ESCs

• Castle Creations Phoenix & Talon
• HobbyWing Platinum V4
• HobbyWing Platinum V5
• Scorpion Tribunus
• Kontronik JIVE
• YGE LVT/HVT
• Kontronik TelMe Telemetry - KOSMIK, JIVE PRO, KOLIBRI
• Graupner Telemetry
• XDFly, ZTW and OMP Telemetry
• Spektrum Avian Telemetry

2 Interfacing

To find how to make it work, please follow the page of the ESCs above.

3 Telemetry data

Available Telemetry variables are dependent on used ESC. Please refer to the section Supported models in particular page of the ESC. Current and Capacity measurement could work only under a load (with main blades on) - depending on ESC model.

• Battery Voltage [V]
• Battery Current [A]
• BEC Voltage [V] - provided by ESC Telemetry or Receiver.
• BEC Current [A] - provided by ESC Telemetry.
• Consumed Capacity [mAh] - Battery Capacity consumed from the initialization point.
• ESC Temperature [°C] - Usually temperature of the FET transistors.

4 Telemetry Screen

ESC Telemetry data can be displayed at the Model - ESC - Telemetry page or added at the Main Screen as Widgets.
