Default What hardware interface do I need to run jetCat version 10 ECU

With the new firmware for the 18SZ?

Thanks

You will have to talk to Jetcat about that. We're not familiar with the product you're asking about.

The "JetCat v10 " Telemetry was produced solely by Robbe for their range of JetCat engines - Ropulsion.
Since Robbe folded, JetCat are unable to supply the adapted ECU's due to legal ownership still being registered with Robbe.

I spoke with Udo at JetCat this afternoon and this was the reply ......

Robbe is gone and the telemetry is not far to supply.

It will become two options
  1. A complete new ECU (same size as ECU V10.0)
  2. A small board to loop in the bus system

The second solution will be the most attractive because the price what is not destined jet.
BTW the telemetry also will be work on Graupner, Yeti, Multiplex and Weatronic.

Best regards
Udo

Thank you, Modtron.

To Mr_Matt, we were talking about the Jetcat ECU. We're not familiar with that product. Normally, you'd use a sensor supplied by the maker of the non-Futaba product. Apparently, though, what you need is no longer available. Likely, the software update was well in process when Robbe went out of business, and Futaba decided to complete the update because there are a number of Jetcat engine owners around the world who would want telemetry information.
