Are there any open discussions on attempting to add feedback to the thrusters? Either RPM or current would be the two options, current would provide a way to more accurately estimate generated force, while RPM could give a decent indicator of force, but more importantly could inform the user that a propeller is not spinning at all or spinning outside expected limits. This is mainly useful for autonomous operations and/or reduced troubleshooting time if vehicle control starts to become less effective

Hi @cmarq -
Our R&D team is hard at work on updating our ESCs, to hopefully include features like you describe! I don’t have any timeline for when such features may be available… apologies!

hi @tony-white
Is there any chance that future ESC will be compatible with VESC protocol ?

Hi @luc-rossi,
We’re still actively discussing which protocol(s) to support - I’ll let the team know that you’d like VESC compatibility if possible
