Scorpion Tribunus ESC has telemetry feature built-in in the Programming port. This allows telemetry data transmission to the unit.

1 ESC configuration

To allow the ESC telemetry, it is necessary to set the Unsolicited telemetry mode in your ESC. With other modes the telemetry will not work. Change Communication protocol to Unsc Telem in the Scorpion Tribunus software.
