Hi there
I have a pixhawk 6C Devkit drone (x500 v2) and want to change the ESC and the motors.
I‘d like to switch to the following components:
- T-Motor 4-in-1 F55A ProII BLHeli32 ESC 3-6S (Team BlackSheep Online Store - T-Motor F55A Pro II F3 55A 3-6s BLHeli32 4in1 ESC w/ BEC - MCU F3 Version)
- EMAX ECO II Serie 2807 1700Kv
- 7“ Three Blade props
The ESC is based on BLHeli32 and can be used with these protocols: PWM / OneShot / DShot300-1200 / MultiShot
The original ESCs which came with the devkit are all connected to the adapter and the adapter is connected with the I/O PWM Output Port on the pixhawk 6c FC.
The new ESC uses another connection type, a 8 Pin connection for the FC.

Pinout of the ESC: https://discuss.ardupilot.org/uploads/default/original/3X/3/a/3a7765cafa0063f2199d36c135dc0e0eb3eaad85.png
Now I‘m not sure if this ESC is compatible with the FC. Do you know if this would work? Can I use another ESC than the original one in general?
I have more experience with opensource FC which usually have the correct connector already mounted. There you only had to look at the protocol. With the Pixhawk FC I am not sure because the pinout is different.
Thank you in advance
regards
