One more: what’s the minimum axle length needed for them?

Alright. My metr pro unity is not working with UART. I am trying to get a replacement because I believe the module itself is bad.

I think metr will work with me, but if not I’ll need some alternative options. Would appreciate any input.

Doesnt the metr pro unity plug directly into the unity to replace the bluetooth module already on it?

@DerelictRobot is working on a datalogging device but its not available yet.

This is true, I just “took my setup apart” (everything only was taped on) When I put it back together it no wanna workie just cog, I need to run motor wizard again.

Yeah it plugs directly into it. I sent my data log to the Metr guys and they said the only issue was that it wasn’t connecting to UART. So either it’s the module or the ESC.

I basically just want to monitor battery percentage without having to install a panel battery gauge. I also don’t want to change my remote( which doesn’t have a battery indicator).

No experience with metr but could it work with the other uart port?

You can get cheap hm10 bluetooth modules for that, but I’ve never been able to get them to work. Only ever tried the old BKB ones.

What are BKB? And they work for you?

I have a flipsky BT module mad for v6. I wonder if I could repurpose it.

I doubt it. But I’m also not sure. If I had the regular Metr with the harness then I believe it would.

It says it doesn’t work with FOCBOX Unity

oh you missed out on the METR GB they sell a Unity bluetooth module.

stock unity BT module will give you battery stats and misc. telemetry… why you abandon it…

and avoid the HM-10… get yourself a NRF module… @Scepterr may still have a few… cheep as sand all over the world if you wanna to the work yourself and save yourself naught point nill
