BLHeli - Configurator

Cross-platform configuration tool for BLHeli-based electronic speed controllers

What is BLHeli - Configurator?

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.

Now you can configure all of your ESCs right from Chrome, as well as update their firmware.

Bloody awesome work Diehertz. Makes for some quick flashing, and a MUUUUUCH nicer looking interface :D

Due to the way the sliders work, there is no way to set the beep strength to 94 to get the custom tone.
