Hello,
I have 2 questions concerning the Wave-API:

1. Is it possible with Wave-API to query the battery capacity for the active model? Or is there an attribute for the current battery SoC percentage?
2. Telemetry data for ESC telemetry must be scaled (divided by a factor) for some values. Is this depending on the ESC model or "normalized" for all supported ESCs?

Hello,

we have updated developer documentation now.
Several new areas and components were documented.

1. Yes, this is very easy. See this page: https://wave.spirit-system.com/dev/tele ... #telemetry
2. They are scaled identically for each ESC. Same format for all ESCs.

We will introduce new Wave Studio with very big improvements next week - it will make development truly fun.

Question 1 does not refer to the used capacity in mAh, but for percentage.

If an app wants to display a battery symbol, which is working like a bar chart (full bar at 100%, empty bar at 0%), you need to know maximum capacity of the battery.

I did not find thus value in the API. While I can query all the battery records, I ma not able to find the "active" battery in the "active" model. Ther is missing someting like "signalBatteryGet".
