Kotleta 20 CAN-Bus Telemetry Data for RPM in log

Support
1

Hello,

we installed 4 Kotleta ESC´s on a quadcopter with pixhawk cube with ardupilot, everything works so far. But we don´t get any telemetry in the log files for RPM. Does anybody now, if this is even possible with the latest ardupilot Firmware?

Any help would be appreciate.

best regards
christian

It’s best to ask ArduPilot maintainers directly.

It doesn’t currently work: AP_UAVCAN: add esc.Status and store data in dataflash · Issue #7753 · ArduPilot/ardupilot · GitHub

We looked at this again last week, and it won’t be long.
The infrastructure is in place to do it (DShot and the other two canbus protocols have telemetry), just needs a rework of the PR to align with those other implementations.
