So it only supports Android devices from over 2 years ago? When I 1st heard of this I was juiced. Then I found out it’s basically mounting another ESC sized component on the chassis and now this. Sounds good in theory but in practice I dunno
yeah its an interesting product. I agree, it is not ideal especially android support and a whole separate unit. But this is the introduction of connectivity to our ESC’s, perhaps as this technology evolves, it will just be integrated into all ESC’s…. definitely would be cool!
Does this work with any esc?
It’s not going to dramatically change the way I’d set my rc. Hobbywing escs with the program card or castle field programmer will always do me just fine. Even tekin with hotwire. Until this tech becomes part of every esc then I think I’ll stick with the stuff i’d buy when I was thrashing the slash.
