You only need commands for top and bottom position, I guess you have that already, otherwise how would you drive drone ;) But it's on you..good luck what ever you try :D

Jan 22, 2017 at 5:40 comment added Ember That would be nice, but I couldn't find any information on what type of commands to send the esc through serial. I might be able to write a program that mimics programming the esc through the transmitter, but that seems like a lot of work. I think what I'll do is order some jst xh 2-pin connectors and solder those to the arduino and the esc. That way I can take it all apart and program the esc's whenever I need to.
Jan 21, 2017 at 10:02 comment added Felix Hey, Russell, already gave some good advice. I just want to add that, as far as I understand you are able to control the ESC from your Arduino, so why make your life more complicated with this programmer thing. I got some of ESC's from Robbe and didn't want to buy a programmer. You can quickly write a program that allows you to program the ESC with your Arduino. For example a short program with severals commands you write serially. That gives you also much more control over your thing, what can be useful when testing.
