    If your ESC doesnt have a data logger function, newer ones are showing up with this capability more and more, then get yourself a Eagle Tree or Medusa. Both good units. There are others too but I know those 2 and they work great. Keeping a written log helps as your build performance increases to. For years I winged it using just my memory. Problem was I started repeating the same mistakes over and over. Now I have a nice library to reflect upon and ensure I wont waste time or energy.

      eagle tree

      Go to eagletreesystems.com. Depending on your amp draw, there are 2 data loggers you can use. One is wired in series and one uses an inductive pickup for higher amp draws.

          If your buying it from OSE/ Steve then pay that. He deserves our money. Dont pay that from any Chi seller. Thats way too much. You need a source PM me. As far as a data system the T180 (thats the one you have listed) does not have a data logger function. You will need to get one. Pretty much just plan on getting one. You decide which you like the best. I like my Eagle Tree best. But Medusa has a 200amp version too plus it gets great revues from other RC sources.
