Knowledge is power !

Maybe you want to know the voltage of your radio controlled helicopter onboard battery, the RPM the motor is turning or the temperature of your ESC. In this day and age R/C is not just one way communication anymore. Traditional radio systems just transmit signals to the receiver,, but Telemetry-capable systems send real-time data from your model back to your transmitter. The X-Bus Telemetry Link was developed based on communication protocol disclosed from Spektrum for use with specific Spektrum radios and compatible Castle Creations ESCs. Telemetry data can be displayed on the transmitter screen, or for parameters where you only want to be notified when a defined threshold is exceeded, (battery voltage, ESC temperature, etc.) you can configure a vibration or sound alert from the radio.

Why integrating telemetry to your model ?

Telemetry has the potential not only to improve the safety of our models by monitoring battery voltages, ESC temperature, and other critical parameters, but it also creates other opportunities to get even more fun out of flying because you’ve essentially reduced the risks of “unknown” inevitable crashes. Think of the benefits to be had from alarms that will sound to warn you when there's interference about or if your receiver battery is running unexpectedly low.
Let’s face it, your time and your energy should be devoted to enjoying your aircraft. Telemetry adds a whole new aspect to the RC pilot or driver that, when set-up and utilized properly, can take a lot of work load away and add to the overall satisfaction and safe operation of model airplanes, helicopters and cars.

Spektrum X-Bus Telemetry Link Data Points:

  • Battery voltage: You will be able to see the voltage state of your battery during flight and respond appropriately to deteriorating conditions or alarms you’ve programmed in your radio.
  • Battery current: Reduce the load (throttle usually) to prevent an over-current shut down and know immediately if your consuming too much current in a particular maneuver.
  • Motor power output: This is the percentage of full power your ESC is delivering to your motor.
  • RPM: Ensure you are within acceptable parameters, without the use of a tachometer.
  • BEC voltage: Monitor your BEC voltage and its stability to the RX even under different loads from different servos.
  • ESC temperature: ESC temperature monitoring can eliminate a potential thermal shut down.
  • Battery ripple: Just how hard are the capacitors, FETS, and internal components working with your set up, excessive ripple can cause internal heating of batteries. Excessive heat is harmful to the components and it can ultimately kill the controller.
