I have a kontronic program unit...Big donut looking thing...

 

Got one of them, thanks anyway @smakmeharder

 

I just had a look at the TelMe module. Very interesting. Can you let me know how it goes?

Manufacturers information below for anyone else who is interested.





Kontronic TelMe module interface for MIKADO RX Telemetry

The TelMe module is the interface between a KOTRONIK ESC with module port and a receiver prepared for telemetry.
TelMe is recognized automatically by the ESC and the correct data stream is started.

Both modules can be run with telemetry-ready ESCs from KONTRONIK (KOSMIK and JIVE Pro) and appropriate radio controls from MIKADO (V-Bar) and Ex-Bus-prepared radio controls from JETI (DS-14 / -16, DC-14 / -16).

With many major radio manufacturer offering telemetry systems, KONTRONIK DRIVES is now connected. ESCs having a modul port are designed with an integrated interface for telemetry. Simply connect the TelMe interface into one of the module ports on the ESC and you will automatically receive important logging data on your transmitter.

TelMe allows the interference-free transportation of telemery signals from the ESC to the transmitter. The ESC recognizes automatically which module is connected.

Datas generated:

• Motor current
• Battery voltage
• Used capacity of the battery
• Temperature of the power board
• BEC current (when ESC has an internal BEC current mesurement)
• BEC temperature
• PWM %
• Motor RPM, eg. rotor RPM

The following alarms are shown:

• amplifier temperature
• motor current
• BEC temperature

Furthermore the TelMe Mikado shows the following limits:

• min voltage
• max current (mean and peak)
• BEC min voltage
• BEC max temperature
• amplifier max temperature

Make sure to have installed the latest software version on your radio control and ESC. KONTRONIK provides a particular software update on the homepage.

 

There great, I have 3 of them now all fitted..... Complete telemetry to the Vbar Controller with no other wires or sensors.....

 

Yep they're great - I'm running these on two of my models as well.
