Description: This flight didn't go very well and the video sucks but it shows the RPM, voltage and temperature data that's being read over I2C from the AfroESCs.It is then sent from the FC to the osd over UART with other telemetry stuff.nnUsing I2C makes it much easier to read the data from the ESC, it was way more complicated with MultiStar and other standard ESCs.It seems that the Vbat values on MultiStar were more stable though.Note that the temperature calculation may need to be calibrated per ESC.
