I bought a used plane with a Spektrum "Avian" 60A ESC. The plane had reverse thrust enabled when used with a Spektrum transmitter and receiver. I want to use the reverse-thrust feature, but I do not (and don't plan to buy) a Spektrum receiver or transmitter. I will use this ESC with a CUBE autopilot and FrSky transmitter. I'm an Electrical Engineer and I completely understand ESC protocols like PWM and D-Shot. The ESC works fine - in one direction only - using standard 1000-2000 us PWM.
My question is - how do I get this ESC to reverse without using a Spektrum setup? If necessary, I can write code to provide any kind of signals to the ESC, but don't know what is required to get it to reverse. Does it respond to D-Shot or some other serial binary format in order to accomplish this?
