BLHeli Programming adapters Arduino Nano

thingiverse

Here are the instructions for programming your BLHeli adapters using an Arduino Nano. 1. First, download and install the BLHeli program onto your computer from the official BLHeli website. 2. Next, connect the BLHeli adapter to the Arduino Nano by attaching the VCC pin of the BLHeli adapter to digital pin 7 on the Arduino Nano and the GND pin of the BLHeli adapter to a GND pin on the Arduino Nano. 3. Then, connect the motor pins of the ESC to the OUT pin and enable (or 'ON') your servo in your sketch to get access to its values. 4. Now you can read these out by simply calling Servo.sweep(), which outputs the position in degrees of a servomotor or similar devices like the BLHeli. 5. To test the motor, plug in an ESC and make sure it's connected properly on the other end. Note: It's worth noting that for all steps 3 to 5, these should happen after uploading the program (BLHeli.ino). The program is quite easy but does take some experience with electronics and Arduino. If unsure how any part works in step one to three do ask an expert as it could be potentially harmful or damaging to either the device.
