Eagletree telemetry in a Savage Flux - 02.09.2009, 06:20 PM

So, I've been thinking about doing this for a while but "Othello" really added the final piece of inspiration with his telemetry overlay videos.

I got the Eagletree gear I need and am going to install it in my Flux to begin with, to test and get the hang of.

I'll update as I go...............

The V3 logging unit itself has deans connectors on it and you use the device as a passthrough from your battery pack. Using a Hall effect sensor, the current being drawn from the battery is measured and from this power is calculated as well as current, voltage, and cumulative capacity usage

Using Two Temperature sensors for this install, one for the ESC and one for the Motor casing

The Brushless RPM Sensor, there are other methods for measuring RPM but with the kind of rate the motor will be turning at, this is the most reliable
