Sounds a little odd I know. maybe crazy.

I am wondering if the Hobby Wing software and properly interpret the input from the Castle Link hardware, the USB adapter.

Mainly wondering if anyone has tried this with a Hobby wing ESC and HW software and a Castle adapter and what the results were.

I doubt it'll work, unless they copied castles design.

Thats what I figured but dont really want to be the lab rat and fry the CC Link or the ESC though USB is 5v at 900mA max generally.

I also doubt their architecture is anywhere near CC and Im betting their addressing is also different. Im betting thats where CC Link will fail.
Hoping someone has tried this and will confirm either way.

Two different things...wouldn't try it. Could be an expensive lesson.
