[SOLVED] Telemetry Support for Align RCE-BL 100A

[rolandk]

Hello Tomas,

I build up a Trex 550X. in the Combo there is an Align RCE-BL 100A ESC.
I mean, that this ESC is compatible to Hobbywing V4 ESC´s, but I didn´t found that ESC in your list with telemetry supported Hobbywing ESC´s.

My question is, wether this ESC is telemetry supported by the Spirit pro unit.

With best regards

Hello,

theoretically it is supported, but only if you are able to load the latest hobbywing firmware into it.
Align ESCs are known to block update in the latest hardware revisions - at the beginning it was possible. Now it is not, probably it was denied by hobbywing.
So hardware is capable, but without latest ESC firmware it has no telemetry support.

Thank You very much for quick reply.

Hello Tomas,

in complement to the above question I can tell You and other owners of an Align RCE-BL 100 A, that on the Align Download Website a Firmware update is available.
It is the ASBOX USB Link V1.0.5.
With this update it is possible, to update the Firmware of the ESC to Version AL-4.0.4.
With this Firmware all Graupner HOTT telemetry Features of the Spirit Pro are available (Setup in the Spirit with "Hobbywing Telemetry" and the necesary cables).

It works quite fine.

With best regards

Roland

Hello

I can also confirm that the Align RCE-BL130 A now works perfectly with new Align 4.0.4 software.
All the data from Align ESC is now sent to spirit.
mAh consumption was spot on.
