"yes right... I meant to say normal air flow, but I guess normal Jedec PCB airflow conditions don't really apply here."

"what is the rule of thumb calculation for the volume of copper required to dissipate 0.4W of power in a still air environment. I am going to be stuffing my ESCs inside an airtight plastic frame ...it was the most durable one I could find."

"From what I was taught in school shunt means a shunt resistor from power to ground, wouldn't that short out the battery? Do you mean series?

I though people use a small value series resistor, and measure the voltage across it using the micro…"

"Just coming across this project, sounds very interesting.

Can I ask what you are planning to use to measure current?
And yes I would be interested in it, although I have no idea how to talk to a CAN ESC right now, will have to learn. I have a…"
