CAN telemetry

Postby Jdmagoo » Thu Jan 30, 2014 10:52 pm

Now with the implementation of CAN on the ESC32, just wondering if the following telemetry will become available:

- status (armed or disarmed)
- temperature
- voltage
- Amps
- RPM
- Direction

If the above list is incorporated how would one access this information? Through GCS, the Android app or Menno's mav2hott code?

Can't wait for the DIMU and CAN boards

Good work to all

It will, it is already implemented as possible status request in the latest svn fw. Temp not yet I believe and direction is a parameter.
Access is another topic :), it we want to distribute that using mavlink (so for the gcs,android and mav2hott) we need to find/create a message that will hold those values and can be picked up by the various external 'listeners'.
