    Futaba released software in Aug. to support the Castle Telemetry Link for the 4PX. I have the link but my transmitter is on it's way to Las Vegas.

        They have some decent and capable wireless telemetry here at a good price: http://www.iisi-rc.com/IISI-RC/Home.html

          Eagletree does all that AND is supported in the US. This thread is about Futaba telemetry.

            Yea, but does it have a 600 or even a 400 amp current sensor... I think not.

              Does it interface with Futaba?

                I have a Futaba 4PLS which I use for both my 1/5 scale petrol off roader and my mono hull Boat.
                I have 3 sensors for my boat so I can do some data logging and monitoring while I try different Props.

                SBS-01RB, The RPM sensor on the brushless motor (all Sorted for my leopard 4082 motor x2 1600kv.)
                SBS-01V for the battery voltage (All sorted 2x 3s lipos)
                SBS-01TE for the temp which I need help with.
                What would be the most important temperature to monitor and where would I place the sensor pad? I tied it on the back of the motor next to the wires and the temp only got to 35 deg C.
                Would I be better to monitor the ESC temp? would the ESC (Seaking 180amp V3) be the more likely to blow before the motor if something when wrong? What would be regarded as safe temps for my setup?
