That is the only way. Its how you program the ESC and its in the programming functions....You get used to it. I know after every flight i have to download the different things from three different loggers and whatnot it feels like but its not bad. FYI the ICE data logger is very inaccurate compared to eagle tree or medusa loggers. It records extremely high amp pulls for some reason. It'll get fixed in later revisions

I just use a short extension chord so that I can get to the connection easier. I have heard that they are working on some sort of a wireless interface but that would bit be any time soon.

I mainly use the data logger headspeed and Motor Power out % (that’s the ESC internal throttle) to do setup work. It can be used for setting up the governor or fine tuning throttle curves. It’s free and does a good job at what it’s intended for.

If you use throttle curves you can save a lot of power and increase you flight time by using a good throttle curve instead of just using 100% all the time.

I agree that the some of the parameters could be more accurate. I have found that the MAH parameter is way off and useless.
