Thank you for the message.
I guess that these are correct readings. What is transmitted by ESC is re-transmitted by unit. So it is very interesting that there are different results.
But we have found that there are different revisions of these ESCs - so this could be the case.
All in all it is always good to be on the latest firmware.
No logged RPM could be caused by not Sensing Divider and Gear Ratio settings. You will have to set it in the unit (with temporarily enabled governor), then you can disable the governor.

What radio are you running Omegaman?
I am running DX9 and my ESC temp shows up in degF, while I see yours is listed as degC.
I just selected "ESC" as one of the telemetry fields, couldn't see any way to modify how the values are displayed.
Do you have the RPM signal wire from ESC plugged into Spirit?

Hi Simplechamp, I'm using DX9 also and wondered how yours was displaying in degF as I couldn't see how to change that either.
I have connected the programing port on the HW ESC direct to the Spirit satallite port. I have done what ZeXx86 suggested and I am off now to give it a whirl.
I think from what you said I have configured my telemetry differently from you. What I did was power up the heli, then went into telemetry on the DX9 put all the fields to empty then hit auto-configure. The only one I had to manually enter was the "text Gen" and also input the pole count and gear ratio etc.

Hi,
I do not recommend Auto Configure feature. It could configure also a different sensors that are not present. Instead please proceed according our integration guide.
The RPM will be displayed also if no governor is used (it will take measurement directly from the ESC).

Now I know why your Capacity consumption does not start at 0.
It is simply because radio is translating the value from C to F. So the readout is somehow wrong.
In the next version we will change it so the capacity si displayed correctly.
To fix it you will need to change to Metric units in the Telemetry.
