BLHeli - Configurator: A Chrome Extension for ESC Configuration

BLHeli - Configurator is a Chrome extension that enables users to configure their electronic speed controllers (ESCs) based on BLHeli right from their browsers. It supports SiLabs and Atmel BLHeli ESCs and allows firmware updates, saving users from the trouble of having to re-solder wires to change motor direction or the inconvenience of running BLHeliSuite on *nix or OS X via Wine.
