Ended up having to swivel the ESC 90 degrees to allow for cable reach, no biggie.

The RPM sensors I just soldered to the motor output sockets. The instructions called for one of the two wires to be attached, the second being needed in case of problems with the tach reading. Knowing my luck I'd tuck away the second wire and end up needing it so I attached it anyway, it's easier to remove later than to fit.

The ESC temp sensor I squeezed in through a side vent, it's laying against a FET Heat sink so should give a fairly accurate reading

The Motor Heat sensor is in the form of a Lasso which I ran around the motor body

Rather than tuck and hide all the telemetry cables away out of sight, which is normally my style, I left them very accessible. This way I can remove the unit and move it to any other model

Now to see what the software has to offer.................
